Navigational Services to Shipping
NAICS 488330 · Federal Contracts & Awards
Navigational Services To Shipping obligated $327,365,340.13 in FY2024 according to USAspending.gov (NAICS 488330). That yearlyTrend cell is 89.0% of $367,641,154.04. That yearlyTrend cell is about eighty-nine percent of the NAICS 488330 extract — a shipping-navigation year, not a vessel-call log. The pair is Navigational Services To Shipping and FY2024 — not every federal dollar in FY2024, not Navigational Services To Shipping’s lifetime book restated as a single year, and not cash already paid. The industry parent lists 709 awards across the published extract; that count is not a FY2024-only row total. Correlation is not causation.
Key figures
- USAspending records $327,365,340.13 in Navigational Services FY2024 obligations (NAICS 488330).
- That cell is 89.0% of the industry’s $367,641,154.04 extract-wide total.
- 709 is the industry extract award-record count, not a FY2024 census of vessel calls, pilots, or named operators.
- The join is NAICS 488330 × FY2024, not an outlay and not a named-recipient list.
- Cite USAspending.gov; quote NAICS 488330 and FY2024 federal spending if live tables moved.
Navigational Services To Shipping dollars in FY2024
The relationship is mechanical: one NAICS code, one fiscal year, one obligation sum. $327,365,340.13 is that sum for Navigational Services To Shipping in 2024. It is not Navigational Services To Shipping nationwide restated as a single year, not every federal dollar in FY2024, and not an outlay register. The packet does not split piloting from other navigational lines inside 488330. 709 is the industry extract’s award-record count, not a FY2024-only file. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a vessel-call log, a named-pilot roster, or a channel inventory.
89.0% locates FY2024 inside NAICS 488330’s $367,641,154.04 extract. Marine cargo handling is a separate NAICS. Do not recode 488330 as that parent. Do not divide $327,365,340.13 by 709 and call the result a typical FY2024 contract; the award count is extract-wide. Open NAICS 488330 for the industry table without the year filter, FY2024 federal spending for the year table without the NAICS filter, All industries for the NAICS index, and All spending ties for other pairs. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $327,365,340.13.
What NAICS 488330 contributes to this pair
USAspending labels industry 488330 as Navigational Services To Shipping. That code produced $327,365,340.13 when filtered to FY2024. The industry-wide 488330 hub does not require a 2024 clamp. The fiscal-year hub does not require Navigational Services. Only this tie applies both filters. The packet does not split piloting from other navigational lines inside 488330.
Correlation is not causation: fiscal year 2024 did not cause $327,365,340.13 by existing on a calendar. Production rates, employment, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 488330 × FY2024 only. This cell is not a vessel-call log, a named-pilot roster, or a channel inventory. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

Questions
- How much did Navigational Services To Shipping obligate in FY2024?
- USAspending.gov records $327,365,340.13 in Navigational Services To Shipping obligations for fiscal year 2024 under NAICS 488330. That amount is a yearlyTrend obligation total, not an outlay and not the industry’s $367,641,154.04 extract-wide sum. The FY2024 slice is 89.0% of that parent. Keep Navigational Services To Shipping and FY2024 on the same citation as $327,365,340.13.
- Is $327,365,340.13 the entire 488330 USAspending total?
- No. NAICS 488330’s extract-wide total is $367,641,154.04. The FY2024 slice is 89.0% of that parent. Other fiscal-year rows for the same code are separate cells if they exist. Do not add the parent hub into this join. Obligations of $327,365,340.13 are not outlays. 709 is extract-wide for NAICS 488330, not a FY2024 firm census.
- Do 709 awards equal 709 Navigational Services firms in FY2024?
- No. 709 is the Navigational Services To Shipping award-record count in this extract, not a FY2024 census of vessel calls, pilots, or named operators. The packet does not split those records by fiscal year or name contractors. Do not divide $327,365,340.13 by 709. USAspending.gov remains the source.
- Can FY2024 figures still change?
- Yes. The source note says FY figures can be incomplete. Later USAspending.gov ingests can restate $327,365,340.13 without changing the join keys NAICS 488330 and 2024. Prefer NAICS 488330 and FY2024 federal spending when live tables move. Obligations remain distinct from outlays. 709 stays extract-wide, not a FY2024 firm census.
USAspending.gov NAICS yearlyTrend by fiscal year. Obligations are not outlays. FY figures can be incomplete for the current year.
