Key figures
- All Other Information Services (NAICS 519190) shows $2,054,524,102.24 in contract obligations.
- The total covers 725 contract awards, not a dataset census.
- Publisher and software NAICS are outside this table when tagged separately.
- Dollars are obligations, not outlays; assistance without NAICS is excluded.
Seven hundred twenty-five awards, $2.05 billion committed
The $2,054,524,102.24 obligation stock sits on 725 contract awards, implying about $2.83 million per award. Residual information-services codes can host large content, data, or information-brokerage vehicles as the awarding office classified them. The packet does not list datasets. It supports the sum and the count.
Software publishers (513210) and all other publishers (511199) are neighboring information-sector codes in this extract. Their dollars are not inside 519190 unless the award also carried this NAICS. Residual services are not residual publishing.
Information-services contracts, not library grants
Library and archive NAICS, when used, are more specific 519xxx lines. Formula assistance for libraries often lacks NAICS entirely. Those grants would not increment $2,054,524,102.24. Keep this hub on the contract slice tagged 519190.
Obligations are commitments. A multi-year information-services vehicle can be obligated by option year while invoices follow deliverables. Outlays are not in the packet.
What 725 does not count
The 725 awards include modifications that keep the code. They are not 725 databases and not 725 vendors. One IDIQ can generate several of those rows. The industry page lists recipients.
Neighboring information codes
Computing infrastructure / data processing (518210) appears elsewhere in some extracts as a different industry. Compare residual information services with publishers and telecom codes on the all-industries index. Cite each NAICS if you add dollars.
Using the information-services hub
The All Other Information Services industry page lists the USAspending.gov actions behind $2.05 billion. Agencies and vendors belong there. This guide does not invent record counts or subscription seats.
Citing 519190 without turning it into an open-data budget
Quote $2,054,524,102.24 as USAspending contract obligations on 725 awards tagged NAICS 519190. Do not present that sentence as federal spending on open government or as a library budget. Those are different ledgers. This table is a residual information-services NAICS filter.
Because 725 is a moderate count with a high average, a few large vehicles can dominate. That concentration is arithmetic. Warehouse refreshes can move both dollars and the count. Recoding a data award to software publishing or to a tighter 519xxx line would send new actions off this residual.
Custom computer programming (541511) is a professional-services tag, not automatically 519190. Mixing IT-services totals with this page invents a combined figure the packet does not contain.
Assistance without NAICS remains outside. Quote USAspending.gov, quote obligations, quote 725 awards, and open the hub for recipients. Stop before converting all other information services into a recommendation about which data product to buy.
Readers quoting this industry should keep two packet facts in one sentence: $2,054,524,102 in USAspending.gov contract obligations and 725 awards tagged NAICS 519190 (ALL OTHER INFORMATION SERVICES). Dropping either figure hides whether the book is a few large vehicles or many small orders. The rounded obligation used for citation is $2,054,524,102; cents on the source total, if any, do not change the industry identity of the code.
ALL OTHER INFORMATION SERVICES shows a moderate award-record count (725). Individual vehicles can still be large. The count includes modifications that retain the NAICS. Publishing and information codes record tagged contract commitments, not circulation, seats, or titles in print. ALL OTHER INFORMATION SERVICES is the residual or product tag as reported. Record corrections in the USAspending.gov warehouse can move both the $2,054,524,102 and the 725-award count. Treat the live ALL OTHER INFORMATION SERVICES industry page as current and this file as a reading of the harvested packet.
Internal comparison belongs on the all-industries index, where NAICS 519190 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 $2,054,524,102. Outlays remain unpublished here. Quote obligations, quote 725 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.
A second check on language: do not call $2,054,524,102 an appropriation, a budget request, or cash disbursed. It is the recorded contract-obligation stock for ALL OTHER INFORMATION SERVICES (NAICS 519190) in the indexed USAspending.gov extract. Do not call 725 a count of establishments. It is an award-record count. Those two constraints are the whole method of this guide.
