Department of State in Minnesota

State Department awards tagged to Minnesota

Department of State as awarding agency, Minnesota as place-of-performance: 122 records summing to $65,302,836.48. A Department of State award coded outside MN is out. An award in Minnesota from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Minnesota (MN) excludes Wisconsin, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Canada. A Wisconsin-coded award is WI even if a vendor sits in Minneapolis. Awarding agency 019 bureau splits are unpublished on this Minnesota cell.

One hundred twenty-two records against $65,302,836.48 is a thin State Department file, close to Alabama’s 124-row cell. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 122 as 122 unique posts, named missions, or unique contractors. The overlay Department of State in Minnesota is the both-keys table. Minnesota federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of State is the agency book without an MN filter. All spending ties lists other joins. Named contractors are unpublished. Do not treat 122 as unique Minnesota vendors or as a Twin Cities ranking. Correlation is not causation: Minnesota did not cause $65,302,836.48 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 019 × MN only.

Not embassies or unique Twin Cities contractors

$65,302,836.48 does not measure unique posts, named missions, or unique contractors. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 019 and an MN place-of-performance tag. Awarding agency 019 bureau splits are unpublished on this Minnesota cell.

Do not treat 122 awards as a census of unique posts, named missions, or unique contractors. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Minnesota federal spending or Department of State matched $65,302,836.48 and 122, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Wisconsin, Iowa, and North Dakota State Department joins are other pairs, not addends. Place of performance MN is domestic coding. It is not a count of overseas posts.
