NAICS 624230 emergency and other relief services obligations

Relief services on 499 contracts

Four hundred ninety-nine awards against $6,971,506,751.16 produces a mean of about $14.0 million. That is a thicker-vehicle pattern than a 50,000-award supply code and a thinner book than janitorial’s 10,405 awards. Emergency and other relief services, in the Census grouping, covers establishments that provide relief to disaster victims and other emergency relief. Federal contracting officers apply 624230 when that is the principal purpose of the action.

A low-to-moderate award count next to a seven-billion-dollar total means a handful of large vehicles can move the industry figure. Readers should expect this hub to shift when USAspending revises those rows. The packet does not name disasters, storms, or programs.

Many disaster dollars move as assistance to states, households, or nonprofits and never receive a NAICS code. Those flows are outside $6,971,506,751.16 even when the work is relief.

Relief NAICS 624230 is a 499-award book at $6,971,506,751.16, about $14.0 million per award. That is thicker than a 12-award reseller code and thinner than a 10,000-award janitorial code. Many disaster dollars move as assistance to states, households, or nonprofits and never receive this NAICS. Those flows are outside the $7.0 billion even when the work is relief.

Surge contracts and payment timing

Relief contracts often stand up quickly and obligate estimated surge support. Outlays follow actual tasking after an event. Treating $7.0 billion as aid already delivered would overstate cash on unused surge capacity and understate assistance that never carried this NAICS.

The 499-award count is not a disaster count and not a household count. Multiple events can sit inside one vehicle. Dividing dollars by awards is not a cost per incident.

What the relief tag does not include

Construction of damaged facilities uses construction NAICS. Food service contractors (722310) measure meals under a different code. Those hubs are not subsets of this relief-services total.

Public assistance grants, individual assistance, and similar instruments typically omit NAICS and do not enter this industry figure.

Food service contractors (722310) measure contracted feeding under a different code. Construction of damaged facilities uses construction NAICS. A surge contract that mixes meals, logistics, and relief will carry one principal NAICS. Only 624230-tagged actions sit in this total.

Questions

How much is obligated under NAICS 624230?

Emergency and other relief services contracts in USAspending show $6,971,506,751.16 in obligations across 499 awards. That is a contract-industry tag, not a complete disaster-assistance account. The figure is obligations, not outlays. Assistance without NAICS is excluded. Award rows are on the industry page.

Does this include FEMA grants to states?

Not by default. Grants and other assistance often lack NAICS and therefore do not enter this $7.0 billion. The aggregate is built from contract awards tagged 624230. Program pages are the better surface for assistance listings that fund relief without a NAICS code.

What is the average relief-services award?

Dividing $6,971,506,751.16 by 499 awards yields about $14.0 million. That mean reflects a relatively small set of vehicles rather than a cost per household. The packet does not publish a median, an event count, or a beneficiary count. The industry page lists award-level amounts; this packet has no household or event count to convert $14.0 million into a cost per incident.

Is food-service contracting part of this total?
