USAspending.gov records $4,604,575,622 in Administrative Management And General Management Consulting Services (NAICS 541611) obligations with Virginia place of performance, across 12,603 awards. That pair is an industry code crossed with a geography filter, not a national consulting budget. Average obligation per award is about $365,356 — a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical consulting task order.

Key figures

  • NAICS 541611 in Virginia: $4,604,575,622 across 12,603 awards.
  • Average obligation per award is about $365,356.
  • The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide Management consulting.
  • VA is place of performance, not a Beltway-only split.

What NAICS 541611 and Virginia share on one row

NAICS 541611 and place-of-performance state VA meet here. $4,604,575,622 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Virginia, not the nationwide Administrative Management And General Management Consulting Services total, and not cash already paid. Northern-Virginia management-consulting folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not a firm roster and not a billable-hour census.

12,603 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — tens of thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total. A long row list can mix small task orders with larger instruments. The join does not rank Virginia against other states and does not name firms inside the extract.

Open Virginia federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 541611 for the next hub, Virginia industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

Management-consulting actions under a Virginia geography tag

Dividing $4,604,575,622 by 12,603 yields about $365,356 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical consulting task order. NAICS 541611 is not computer-systems design or custom programming. Those codes sit on other industry hubs. Do not collapse them because all three appear in Virginia.

Northern-virginia management-consulting folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Recipient rows live on the industry and state hubs, not in this narrative’s extra columns.

NAICS 541611 without a Virginia overlay is a different total

The NAICS 541611 page aggregates NAICS 541611 without requiring VA geography. The Virginia federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Virginia place of performance. Virginia industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 541611 filter and the VA filter, which is why it cites 12,603 awards and $4,604,575,622.

Place of performance in Virginia is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list VA while work occurs in Maryland or D.C. 541611 awards coded to those jurisdictions do not sit in this total even if the firm’s mailroom is in McLean. This packet does not split Northern Virginia from Hampton Roads or Richmond.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $4,604,575,622 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Virginia over-reads the field.

Award count 12,603 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Virginia federal spending, NAICS 541611, and Virginia industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 541611 total in Virginia does not mean consultants caused Virginia’s contractor mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between Beltway geography and consulting awards is expected; it is not a finding about advice quality or waste.

Keep $4,604,575,622 labeled as NAICS 541611 obligations with Virginia place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending.

How to cite the Virginia–541611 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 541611 (Administrative Management And General Management Consulting Services), Virginia place of performance, $4,604,575,622 in obligations, and 12,603 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $4,604,575,622 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $365,356 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical consulting task order.

Virginia federal spending, NAICS 541611, Virginia industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $4,604,575,622 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Northern Virginia-versus-Richmond folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Do not merge 541611 with 541512 or 541511. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.
