Apparel accessories manufacturing (NAICS 315990) federal contract obligations

Seven thousand six hundred twenty-eight awards, $2.25 billion

The $2,251,805,163.69 obligation stock sits on 7,628 contract awards, implying about $295,200 per award. Apparel codes in federal contracting often mix clothing-issue schedules with smaller accessory orders. The packet does not split hats from gloves. It supports the sum and the count.

Cut-and-sew apparel contractors (315210) is a neighboring manufacturing code in this extract. Contractor shops that cut and sew from materials owned by others are a different Census line when tagged that way. Only 315990 feeds this $2.25 billion.

Manufacturing obligations, not wardrobe counts

USAspending.gov records committed contract amounts for awards tagged 315990. It does not publish pieces issued to personnel. Citing $2,251,805,163.69 as uniforms in closets is incorrect. Citing it as invoices paid is also incorrect without an outlay field.

Assistance that funds clothing banks or similar programs may lack NAICS. Those grants would not increment this industry total. Keep 315990 on the contract hub.

What 7,628 does not count

The award count includes delivery orders and modifications that keep the code. It is not 7,628 factories and not 7,628 SKUs. One clothing IDIQ can generate many of those rows. The industry page lists recipients.

Cut-and-sew contractors and other apparel lines sit nearby on the all-industries index. Compare award counts: 7,628 here versus other 315xxx pages. Do not merge accessory manufacturing with contractor sewing without citing each NAICS.

Using the apparel-accessories hub

The Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing industry page lists the USAspending.gov actions behind $2.25 billion. Agencies and vendors belong there. This guide does not invent sizes, NSNs, or Berry Amendment determinations beyond the packet.

Citing 315990 without turning it into a textile mill story

Quote $2,251,805,163.69 as USAspending contract obligations on 7,628 awards tagged NAICS 315990. Do not fold in fabric mills or cut-and-sew contractor NAICS unless those awards also carry 315990. Accessories manufacturing is easy to confuse with the rest of the clothing buy on a supply schedule; the industry table follows the code on the award.

Readers sometimes treat apparel dollars as a headcount of personnel clothed. The public NAICS total does not support that conversion. The $2.25 billion is a contract-obligation stock. Option years and delivery orders can raise the recorded commitment before items ship. Keep outlays out of the sentence.

The 7,628-award count should travel with the dollars. Warehouse refreshes can move both figures. Recoding an order to 315210 would send new actions to the contractor page.

Assistance without NAICS remains outside. Quote USAspending.gov, quote obligations, quote 7,628 awards, and open the hub for recipients. Stop before converting apparel accessories manufacturing into a product recommendation.

Readers quoting this industry should keep two packet facts in one sentence: $2,251,805,164 in USAspending.gov contract obligations and 7,628 awards tagged NAICS 315990 (APPAREL ACCESSORIES AND OTHER APPAREL MANUFACTURING). Dropping either figure hides whether the book is a few large vehicles or many small orders. The rounded obligation used for citation is $2,251,805,164; cents on the source total, if any, do not change the industry identity of the code.

APPAREL ACCESSORIES AND OTHER APPAREL MANUFACTURING shows 7,628 award records, enough to include recurring orders without resembling a micro-purchase flood. Modifications that keep the code are inside the count. Food-manufacturing codes record procurement of tagged products, not nutrition-assistance benefits and not farm-program outlays. APPAREL ACCESSORIES AND OTHER APPAREL MANUFACTURING stays on the contract slice. Record corrections in the USAspending.gov warehouse can move both the $2,251,805,164 and the 7,628-award count. Treat the live APPAREL ACCESSORIES AND OTHER APPAREL MANUFACTURING industry page as current and this file as a reading of the harvested packet.

Internal comparison belongs on the all-industries index, where NAICS 315990 sits beside other six-digit contract totals. Adding neighboring codes by hand creates a new total this packet does not contain; cite each NAICS if you add. Assistance awards that omit NAICS remain outside $2,251,805,164. Outlays remain unpublished here. Quote obligations, quote 7,628 awards, cite USAspending.gov, and open the overlay hub for recipients rather than inventing agencies, fiscal years, or unit counts the packet does not list.
