Department of Commerce as awarding agency, Wisconsin as place-of-performance: 189 records summing to $1,381,583,747.17. A Department of Commerce award coded outside WI is out.

A Chicago-coded award is Illinois even if the firm sits in Kenosha.

One hundred eighty-nine records against $1,381,583,747.17 is a thin Commerce file: few rows, large dollars. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 189 as 189 unique unique firms, export dollars, or named bureaus. The overlay Department of Commerce in Wisconsin is the both-keys table.

Not a manufacturer or export ledger

$1,381,583,747.17 does not measure unique firms, export dollars, or named bureaus. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 013 and a WI place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 189 awards as a census of unique firms, export dollars, or named bureaus. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Wisconsin federal spending or Department of Commerce matched $1,381,583,747.17 and 189, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Minnesota, Illinois, and Michigan Commerce joins are other pairs, not addends.
