NAICS 339999 all other miscellaneous manufacturing obligations
Federal contracts tagged NAICS 339999, All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing, show $9.6 billion in obligations in USAspending.gov data on SpendingVault. The aggregate is $9,572,818,317.69 across 57,491 awards, about $166,510 per award. The code is a residual manufacturing class: goods that officers did not place in a more specific manufacturing NAICS. Dollars are obligations, not outlays; assistance without NAICS is excluded.
Key figures
- NAICS 339999 residual manufacturing shows $9.6 billion obligated.
- 57,491 awards average about $166,510 in the USAspending extract.
- Named manufacturing NAICS codes are separate industry totals.
- Figures are contract obligations, not outlays or unit counts.
A leftover manufacturing bin with 57,491 awards
Census residual manufacturing codes collect products that did not fit a tighter six-digit class. NAICS 339999 is that leftover bin at the end of miscellaneous manufacturing. It is still large in federal contracting: $9,572,818,317.69 on 57,491 awards. The title does not name a product family. Brooms, signs, and other miscellaneous goods can share the tag when the officer selects 339999; this packet does not split them.
The mean of about $166,510 is consistent with many modest supply actions. High award volume is the distinctive coordinate. Computer manufacturing (334111) also shows a high count; this residual code is a different product set even when the award-count pattern looks similar.
Because 339999 is a catch-all, two similar widgets can land here or in a specific manufacturing code depending on how the officer reads the principal purpose. Time-series comparisons can move with coding practice.
Miscellaneous manufacturing is a filing bin at the end of the 339 group. All other miscellaneous manufacturing (339999) still holds $9,572,818,317.69 on 57,491 awards, about $166,510 per award. Named manufacturing codes — computers, instruments, communications equipment — have their own hubs and are not inside this leftover total.
Supply obligations versus cash paid
Short-lead manufacturing supply orders often obligate and pay on similar clocks. Longer production awards can leave a gap. This packet does not split those types. The $9.6 billion is the obligation total USAspending attributes to tagged 339999 awards, not a warehouse of miscellaneous goods already paid for.
The 57,491-award count is not a unit count. Delivery orders and modifications sit inside the tally as the extract grouped them. Dividing dollars by awards is not a catalog price.
Specific manufacturing codes are not included
Surgical instruments, electronic computers, communications equipment, and other named manufacturing NAICS have their own hubs. Those dollars are not inside $9,572,818,317.69. A reader should not treat “miscellaneous” as “all manufacturing minus a few headlines.” It is only the residual tag.
Wholesale NAICS codes measure merchant wholesalers, not this manufacturing class. A miscellaneous good bought from a wholesaler may never receive 339999.
Wholesale NAICS codes measure distributors. A miscellaneous good bought from a merchant wholesaler may never receive 339999. Conversely, a 339999 manufacturing award is not a wholesale action. Keep maker tags and wholesale tags on their own pages.
How to use the 339999 hub
Rank residual manufacturing on the all-industries index by dollars and by award count. Open the all other miscellaneous manufacturing industry page for award descriptions — those descriptions do more work here than on a tightly named code.
Keep $9.6 billion and 57,491 awards as the two packet facts. Do not invent a product mix.
Catch-all limits
SpendingVault does not recode miscellaneous awards into tighter NAICS classes. The published sum is whatever officers tagged 339999.
Assistance without NAICS stays out. Extract updates will move $9,572,818,317.69 and 57,491.
How to use a 57,491-award residual table
Award descriptions do more work on a residual code than on a tightly named one. Open the all other miscellaneous manufacturing industry page before concluding what was made. This guide does not invent a product mix from the leftover title.
Rank 339999 by dollars and by award count on the all-industries index. High volume at a modest mean is the distinctive shape. Cite USAspending.gov. Assistance without NAICS is excluded. Extract updates may move the total through many small revisions.
Miscellaneous manufacturing at $9,572,818,317.69 on 57,491 awards is a leftover goods bin with catalog thickness. The mean of about $166,510 fits many modest supply actions. Named manufacturing NAICS codes are not inside this residual total.
Wholesale NAICS codes measure distributors, not this maker class. Open the all other miscellaneous manufacturing industry page and read descriptions before concluding what was made. Cite USAspending.gov. Assistance without NAICS is excluded. Extract updates on a high-volume residual code often arrive as many small revisions.
Residual manufacturing at 57,491 awards is a long table. Use the all other miscellaneous manufacturing industry page rather than inferring products from the leftover title. The $9,572,818,317.69 obligation sum and the mean of about $166,510 are the quantitative facts in the packet. Named manufacturing codes remain outside this bin. SpendingVault does not recode miscellaneous awards into tighter NAICS classes.
Questions
- What does NAICS 339999 cover in USAspending?
- It is the residual All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing class. The SpendingVault aggregate is $9,572,818,317.69 in obligations across 57,491 contract awards. Named manufacturing codes are separate hubs. The total is obligations, not outlays, and it excludes assistance without NAICS. Open the industry page for award descriptions; the residual title will not name a product family.
- Why are there 57,491 awards?
- USAspending shows 57,491 awards tagged 339999 in this extract. Residual supply codes often accumulate many modest actions. Dividing $9,572,818,317.69 by that count yields about $166,510 per award. The count is not a unit count of miscellaneous products. The count is an award tally from the extract, not a unit count of miscellaneous products.
- Is miscellaneous manufacturing the same as all leftover federal buying?
- No. It is one six-digit manufacturing tag. Residual service codes, wholesale codes, and untagged assistance are different pages. The $9.6 billion is only NAICS 339999 contract obligations. Do not use it as a government-wide residual spending account. Residual service codes, wholesale codes, and untagged assistance are different pages and are not this $9.6 billion.
- Where can I see what products are in 339999?
- Product names are not in this packet’s facts. The all other miscellaneous manufacturing industry page lists award-level descriptions USAspending provides. This guide does not invent a catalog from the residual title. Use those descriptions plus the $9,572,818,317.69 obligation total; do not invent a catalog from the NAICS title alone.
