Cross-check /states/ca/ if you need other NAICS in CA, /industries/541990/ if you need other states, /states/ca/industries/ for the in-state code list, and /ties/ for other joins. Those URLs are parents and siblings, not addends for $236,105,514.55.
Leftover professional services, not satellite telecom
Satellite-telecom codes are a different California industry page. NAICS 541990 is all other professional, scientific, and technical services, not satellite telecommunications and not engineering services. Speech often blends neighboring manufacturing or services codes. This table does not. $236,105,514.55 is 541990 only, inside California only.
All other professional services is a residual label, not satellite telecom. This extract does not name firms, labs, or primes. About $191,800 per award comes from dividing $236,105,514.55 by 1,231. Use that ratio as a scale check, not as a typical California invoice. No median and no fiscal-year slice appear in the facts.
California geography on a 541990 cell
California place of performance can cover Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, or a reporting address. The packet has no metro split. Ordinary maps mention Los Angeles, San Diego, or a named professional office. This extract has no such split. All of those places, if they appear at all, share CA inside $236,105,514.55.
A California performance tag can sit on work whose parts, crews, or ships moved through other states. The join reports the tag, not a bill of lading. /states/ca/ uses the same place-of-performance rule for every industry on the state hub.

What the professional–California pair does not prove
Industry presence in California and federal obligations in that industry can move together or not; this packet cannot say which. All other professional services is a residual label, not satellite telecom. This extract does not name firms, labs, or primes. Do not fold FEC donations into USAspending. Cite both sides: All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services and California.
