NAICS 336212 truck trailer manufacturing contract obligations

Trailers as a manufacturing buy

One thousand two hundred ninety-seven awards produced $10,885,475,843.91 in obligations. The mean of about $8.4 million is high for a single trailer and ordinary for a production lot or a specialized trailer vehicle. The packet has no unit count, so the mean is not a sticker price. Flatbeds, tank trailers, and other trailer types can share the same six-digit tag when the officer selects 336212.

The Census title is truck trailer manufacturing. Motor vehicle manufacturing, truck-tractor manufacturing, and freight transportation are different codes. A contract to haul cargo with existing trailers is a transportation tag, not this manufacturing total. The $10.9 billion follows the manufacturing NAICS on the action.

Specialized government trailers — including configurations a commercial catalog would not list — can still be 336212 if that is the principal-purpose code. This guide does not name those configurations because they are not in the facts object.

Vehicle-related NAICS codes split trailers, trucks, and freight service. Truck trailer manufacturing (336212) is the trailer-maker tag at $10,885,475,843.91 on 1,297 awards, about $8.4 million per award. Deep sea freight (483111) and chartered passenger air (481211) measure movement, not manufacture. This page stays on trailers.

Production obligations versus cash paid

Trailer production lots often obligate at award and pay on delivery. Multi-year vehicles can leave a gap between the $10.9 billion commitment and outlays to date. This packet publishes obligations only.

The 1,297-award count is not a trailer count. One award can cover a fleet lot; many awards can cover spare parts or modifications. USAspending’s award grouping determines the tally.

Neighboring vehicle and freight codes

Deep sea freight (483111) and other transportation NAICS measure movement of goods, not manufacture of trailers. Truck-tractor and motor-vehicle manufacturing codes, if present on other hubs, are not rolled into $10,885,475,843.91. Adding those pages would mix tags the source separates.

Grants that buy trailers for state agencies often lack NAICS and do not enter this industry total.

A mixed buy of trucks and trailers will carry one principal NAICS. If the officer chose 336212, truck-related dollars on that action sit in this $10.9 billion. If the officer chose a truck-manufacturing code, trailer line items on that action would not. SpendingVault does not split mixed actions.

Using the 336212 table

Read $10.9 billion next to 1,297 awards: fewer actions than computer manufacturing, larger mean size. Rank the code on the all-industries index among manufacturing NAICS. Open the truck trailer manufacturing industry page for award-level fields.

Do not infer fleet inventories from the title. The aggregate measures tagged contract obligations.

Classification limits

A mixed award for trucks and trailers will carry one principal NAICS. If that code is 336212, truck-related dollars on the same action sit in this total. If the officer chose a truck-manufacturing code, trailer line items on that action would not appear here.

Extract updates will move $10,885,475,843.91 and 1,297 with USAspending.

How to use a mid-count manufacturing hub

One thousand two hundred ninety-seven awards is thicker than a 12-award reseller code and thinner than a 50,000-award computer-manufacturing code. Rank 336212 by dollars on the all-industries index, then glance at award count so the book is not mistaken for either extreme.

Open the truck trailer manufacturing industry page for recipient and agency fields. The packet facts remain $10.9 billion and 1,297 awards. No unit count, no fleet inventory, no outlay total. Assistance without NAICS is excluded. USAspending.gov is the source.

Trailer manufacturing at $10,885,475,843.91 on 1,297 awards sits in a mid-count band: thicker than a dozen-award vehicle, thinner than a 50,000-award supply code. The mean of about $8.4 million is a lot-size clue, not a sticker price per trailer.

Freight transportation NAICS codes measure movement of goods, not manufacture of trailers. Keep those hubs separate. Open the truck trailer manufacturing industry page for recipient and agency fields. Cite USAspending.gov. Assistance without NAICS stays outside. A mixed truck-and-trailer award follows one principal NAICS; SpendingVault does not split the action.

Keep the manufacturing-versus-haulage line bright. NAICS 336212’s $10,885,475,843.91 on 1,297 awards does not measure freight bills. It measures tagged trailer-making contracts. If a contracting officer filed a mixed truck-and-trailer buy under another vehicle NAICS, those trailer dollars would not appear here. The industry page is the place to inspect the 1,297 rows the source stored.

Questions

How much is obligated under NAICS 336212?

USAspending contract awards tagged to truck trailer manufacturing show $10,885,475,843.91 in obligations across 1,297 awards. That is a manufacturing total, not a trucking-service total.

What is the average trailer-manufacturing award?

Dividing $10,885,475,843.91 by 1,297 awards yields about $8.4 million. That mean is not a price per trailer. Production lots, specialized configurations, and spare-parts awards share the average. The packet does not include a unit count or a median. Inspect award-level amounts on the industry page rather than treating $8.4 million as a sticker price per trailer.

Does this include federal trucking contracts?

No, unless the officer tagged a transportation action as 336212, which would be an unusual principal-purpose choice. Trucking and freight NAICS codes measure carrier services. This $10.9 billion is the trailer-manufacturing tag. Use transportation industry pages for haulage contracts. Use transportation industry pages for haulage contracts tagged to carrier NAICS codes.

Are state trailer grants in the $10.9 billion?

Generally no. The industry aggregate is built from USAspending contract awards that carry NAICS 336212. Assistance instruments often omit NAICS and therefore do not enter this total. Program and recipient pages are the better surface for grant-funded equipment. Program and recipient pages remain the better surface for grant-funded trailers that never received this manufacturing NAICS.
