USAspending in Virginia District 11, FY2024

Fifty-eight thousand actions in one district code

USAspending counts 58,311 awards with Virginia District 11 place of performance in FY2024. Those records sum to $135.8 billion in obligations. A thick file usually mixes task orders, modifications, and assistance actions; it does not mean 58,311 unique companies. The packet has no unique-recipient count.

Because first year and last year are both 2024, the 58,311 figure is a single-fiscal-year stock. It is not a running inventory of every award ever performed in the 11th district. Later years are outside this page’s facts.

Northern Virginia performance, not a headquarters census

Place of performance assigns the district. Recipient headquarters do not. Federal work coded to Virginia’s 11th district can be performed by vendors based in other Virginia districts, Maryland, the District of Columbia, or farther away. Those awards still sit in the $135.8 billion if the performance tag is VA-11.

Firms with offices inside District 11 can be missing when the work is coded to Virginia District 08, Virginia District 03, Virginia’s unspecified District 90 bucket, or another state. HQ lists of “11th district contractors” will not reproduce this file.

Numbered seat versus unspecified codes

Virginia District 11 is a voting House district. USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets are 90 and 98. This page’s $135.8 billion is mapped to the 11th district’s performance code. Unmapped Virginia performance, if present, would appear on a 90-coded hub, not here.

The Virginia state page mixes numbered districts and any residual codes. Use that page for a statewide place-of-performance total. Use this page when the question is specifically District 11 performance location in FY2024.

Obligations, not disbursements

SpendingVault’s district totals are obligations: legal commitments recorded in USAspending. Outlays are payments. The $135.8 billion figure is the former. Contract vehicles common in the National Capital region can obligate in one year and invoice across several.

The precise FY2024 statement is that agencies obligated $135.8 billion on 58,311 awards with VA-11 place of performance. It is not a statement that $135.8 billion was paid in cash inside the district that year. First year and last year are both 2024; there is no prior-year District 11 total here.

Virginia pages that sit beside this hub

The Virginia District 11 hub is the award table. The Virginia state page is the statewide rollup. The all-districts index links to other Virginia numbered districts, including District 08 and District 03, and to unspecified 90/98 codes used in USAspending. Headquarters in the 11th without a VA-11 performance tag does not enter the $135.8 billion.

Virginia District 11 beside District 08, District 03, and VA-90

Virginia District 08 and District 03 are separate numbered hubs. Virginia District 90 is the unspecified leftover. None of those files is included in this $135.8 billion or in these 58,311 awards. This page is only VA-11 place of performance for FY2024.

A thick file of 58,311 records in a National Capital–adjacent district often reflects many contract actions. That is a reading of row volume, not a unique-vendor census. The Virginia District 11 hub is where to inspect agencies and recipients. The Virginia state page rolls all Virginia codes together. The all-districts index is the path among Virginia’s numbered seats and the 90-coded residual. All of those pages use USAspending obligations. This hub’s $135.8 billion is commitments on 58,311 awards, not outlays. Virginia District 11 should be cited as $135.8 billion in FY2024 USAspending obligations on 58,311 awards with numbered code VA-11. District 08, District 03, and District 90 are other Virginia files. None of their totals is inside these 58,311 awards. A thick National Capital–region file usually means many contract actions. Unique vendors are not in the facts. The Virginia District 11 hub is the table. The Virginia state page rolls all Virginia codes and will not equal $135.8 billion. Keep VA-11 on its own row. Obligations are commitments. Outlays are not this district total. Headquarters in the 11th without a VA-11 performance tag does not enter the $135.8 billion. FY2024 is the only year in the packet. A prior-year comparison would be invented. For a Virginia comparison table, District 11 is one numbered row: $135.8 billion and 58,311 awards in FY2024. Other Virginia numbered rows and the 90-coded remainder belong on other rows with their own facts. This packet does not supply those other dollars. What it supplies is VA-11 place-of-performance obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays, not a headquarters extract, and not a multi-year series.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Virginia District 11 for FY2024?

USAspending.gov records $135.8 billion in FY2024 obligations with a Virginia District 11 place of performance, across 58,311 awards. These are obligations, not outlays. District is performance location, not headquarters. The facts cover FY2024 only. Those figures are FY2024 USAspending obligations with a Virginia District 11 place of performance, covering 58,311 awards, not outlays and not a headquarters extract.

Why does District 11 have 58,311 awards?

That is the FY2024 award-record count for the VA-11 place-of-performance code. It is not a unique-vendor count. Those records sum to $135.8 billion in obligations. The packet does not break the file by agency or award type. Award count and dollars are separate packet facts: 58,311 FY2024 records still sum to $135.8 billion in obligations, and this page does not list unique vendors or the largest individual awards.

Is Virginia District 11 a 90-code unspecified bucket?

No. District 11 is a numbered Virginia congressional district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets. The $135.8 billion total is mapped to District 11, not to those residual codes. Virginia District 11 is a numbered House seat in this dataset; codes 90 and 98 are the unspecified buckets. The $135.8 billion FY2024 total on 58,311 awards is mapped to District 11 place of performance.

Do contractors headquartered in the 11th district all appear here?

No. Only awards with VA-11 place of performance enter the $135.8 billion and 58,311-award totals. A headquarters in the district is not sufficient. Work coded to another Virginia district or another state will appear elsewhere. Only the place-of-performance code puts an award in this $135.8 billion FY2024 rollup; a Virginia office address is neither required nor enough to enter the 58,311 records.
