Federal obligations in construction machinery manufacturing (NAICS 333120)
Federal contract obligations tagged NAICS 333120 — construction machinery manufacturing — total $3,007,373,017.70 across 20,028 awards, according to USAspending.gov aggregates on SpendingVault. Census places this machinery-manufacturing code on construction equipment plants, not residual commercial machinery (333318) and not industrial machinery repair (811310). The figure is obligations, not outlays. Assistance awards often omit NAICS and do not add to this total.
Key figures
- NAICS 333120 contract obligations total $3,007,373,017.70 on USAspending.gov.
- The rollup covers 20,028 awards and is not cash outlays.
- 333120 is construction machinery manufacturing, not repair 811310 or residual 333318.
- Assistance awards without NAICS are omitted from this total.
Making construction machines, not repairing them
NAICS 333120 covers construction machinery manufacturing. Loaders, excavators, and related new equipment can land here when the award is tagged 333120. Residual other commercial machinery (333318) and machinery repair (811310) are other codes. The $3,007,373,017.70 total is the construction-machinery manufacturing tag, not “all machines.”
A pump-shop repair tagged 811310 will not raise this manufacturing row. A new-loader vehicle tagged 333120 will. SpendingVault reports the USAspending award tag, not an AEM shipment census and not an FEC employer string such as “manufacturer.”
20,028 awards on a $3.01 billion obligation stock
Twenty thousand twenty-eight awards produced $3,007,373,017.70 in obligations. That action count is thick: spare-parts and complete-machine orders can stack. The packet does not split capital machines from attachments. The table shows tagged dollars and the 20,028-award count.
Obligations move with new awards, options, and modifications, including deobligations. Outlays are payments and are not this $3,007,373,017.70 rollup. A multi-year vehicle can show a large commitment while invoices follow performance. The industry page does not convert obligations into a cash calendar.
How USAspending attaches this NAICS
USAspending.gov stores NAICS on contract actions. infrastructure grants and many disaster-equipment assistance awards often have no NAICS field. Those dollars will not add to the 20,028 awards. Open program pages for grant-funded activity in this industry.
The label is a Census NAICS classification. It is not an AEM shipment census and not campaign-finance text. Cite USAspending.gov via SpendingVault for $3,007,373,017.70 and the 20,028-award count.
What the 333120 table is and is not
The hub lists recipients and awards that share this NAICS tag. A large obligation is a disclosed commitment. It is not a finding that a machine failed, that a fleet was idle, or that a small business was excluded. SpendingVault does not score outcomes from the dollar total.
Use award IDs, not the $3,007,373,017.70 headline, to separate two companies. Subcontractors may be missing if the prime coded 333120. UEI and name changes are ordinary in the file.
Neighboring 3331 and 8113 codes
Residual commercial and service industry machinery manufacturing (333318) and industrial machinery repair (811310) are separate pages. Adding them to $3,007,373,017.70 would mix residual machines and repair shops with construction-machinery manufacturing. That recode is not this page.
Assistance without NAICS remains outside the 20,028-award count. For a recipient that also holds grants, open the recipient record. This guide stays on contract NAICS 333120 from USAspending.gov. Keep obligations distinct from outlays.
New construction machines versus residual 333318 and repair
A residual-machinery award tagged 333318 will not raise the 20,028-award count. A construction-machinery vehicle tagged 333120 sits in $3,007,373,017.70 even if the same prime also holds an 811310 repair shop. SpendingVault does not merge those rows.
Searchers who want “all federal machinery” must add 333318 and 811310 and will still miss grants. This page does not perform that recode. Cite contract NAICS 333120 only. Do not treat the row as an FEC occupation called manufacturer. The $3,007,373,017.70 figure remains an obligation stock on USAspending.gov. Modifications that cancel a catalog line will lower the running total without publishing a utilization statistic on this hub. Open award rows for model descriptions. Neighboring 3331 lines stay on their own pages unless those awards were tagged 333120.
A new loader tagged 333120 still sits in $3,007,373,017.70; a pump repair tagged 811310 does not. The 20,028 awards remain an action count, not a plant census. Keep residual 333318 on its own page. Cite USAspending.gov contract NAICS 333120 only. The headline is still obligations, not outlays. Disaster-equipment grants without NAICS stay outside this contract rollup. Do not add 811310 or 333318 into $3,007,373,017.70 without documenting a recode. The 20,028 awards stay an action file, not a plant roster. Open award rows for CLIN-level descriptions the NAICS hub does not publish. Neighboring codes stay on their own SpendingVault industry pages unless those awards were tagged 333120. Keep obligations distinct from outlays on this rollup. Assistance awards without NAICS remain outside the contract tag. The packet reports only this NAICS tag from USAspending.gov contract actions, not outlays and not assistance without a NAICS field. Do not treat this industry total as an FEC employer string or as a cash-outlay extract from Treasury.
Questions
- How much has the federal government obligated under NAICS 333120?
- USAspending.gov contract aggregates on SpendingVault show $3,007,373,017.70 in obligations across 20,028 awards tagged construction machinery manufacturing. The number is obligations, not outlays. Assistance awards without NAICS are omitted. It is not an FEC employer string and not a combined total of neighboring NAICS codes.
- Does this include industrial machinery repair?
- Commercial and industrial machinery repair except automotive and electronic is NAICS 811310. Those awards will not add to the $3,007,373,017.70 total unless tagged 333120. The 20,028 awards are the construction-machinery manufacturing contract tag from USAspending.gov via SpendingVault. Adding 811310 is a recode you must document on this page.
- Does this include residual commercial machinery manufacturing?
- Other commercial and service industry machinery manufacturing is NAICS 333318. Those awards will not add to the $3,007,373,017.70 total unless tagged 333120. The 20,028 awards are the construction-machinery contract tag. Open the 333318 industry page for that residual manufacturing rollup from USAspending.gov.
- Are these figures outlays or obligations?
- They are obligations: legally binding commitments on contract actions. Outlays are payments and are not this $3,007,373,017.70 rollup. Modifications can change obligations without a same-day payment. SpendingVault cites USAspending.gov contract NAICS for the 20,028 awards, not a Treasury cash extract.
