Other Prof/Sci/Tech Services (NAICS 541990) in Colorado 4th District (CO-04)
USAspending.gov records $3,076,876,967.89 in All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services (NAICS 541990) obligations with place of performance in Colorado 4th District (CO-04), across 93 awards. Ninety-three residual professional-scientific-technical awards equal about fourteen percent of Colorado 4th District's district obligation total. That pair is All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services and Colorado 4th District (CO-04) — not Colorado's entire federal inflow, not All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 13.5% of this district's published obligation total ($22,721,014,071.34). Implied average obligation is about $33,084,698.58 ($3,076,876,967.89 ÷ 93). Correlation is not causation.

What the Other Prof/Sci/Tech–CO-04 join is
NAICS 541990 and congressional district CO-04 meet here. $3,076,876,967.89 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services total, not every federal dollar coded to Colorado 4th District (CO-04), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split scientific from technical from other 541990 residual work, and it does not split contract versus assistance. 93 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a professional-license roster, a named-consultant file, or a residual catch-all of every NAICS.
Dividing $3,076,876,967.89 by 93 yields about $33,084,698.58 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 93 awards is a moderate residual-services file. That count is not a consultant census. Do not treat CO-04's 541990 cell as a synonym for every Other Prof/Sci/Tech account nationwide. Open Colorado 4th District for the district table without this industry filter, NAICS 541990 for NAICS 541990 without a CO-04 filter, Colorado federal spending for every industry in the Colorado extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $3,076,876,967.89.
NAICS 541990 as the Other Prof/Sci/Tech side
USAspending labels industry 541990 as All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services. That code produced $3,076,876,967.89 when crossed with Colorado 4th District (CO-04) place of performance. The industry-wide 541990 hub does not require CO-04 geography. The district hub does not require Other Prof/Sci/Tech. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 93 awards. The packet does not split scientific from technical from other 541990 residual work, and it does not split contract versus assistance.
Correlation is not causation: Colorado 4th District (CO-04) did not cause $3,076,876,967.89 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 541990 × CO-04 only. This cell is not a professional-license roster, a named-consultant file, or a residual catch-all of every NAICS. 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.
Colorado 4th District (CO-04) as place of performance
Colorado 4th District (CO-04) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list CO-04 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Colorado districts belong on those ties even when the industry is also 541990. Colorado 4th District (CO-04) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Colorado. Other Colorado districts are separate joins even when they reuse NAICS 541990. Colorado 4th District (CO-04) is a place-of-performance code inside Colorado. Other Colorado districts are separate joins.
Colorado federal spending shows how NAICS 541990 sits beside other industries in the same state extract. $3,076,876,967.89 is one district-industry column, not the state table. This packet does not split Colorado 4th District (CO-04) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different NAICS stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services. The district-wide obligation total published here is $22,721,014,071.34; $3,076,876,967.89 is the Other Prof/Sci/Tech slice of that denominator.
Obligations, not outlays
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $3,076,876,967.89 is that kind of sum for All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services inside CO-04 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same industry rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $3,076,876,967.89 as given.
Colorado's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 93-row Other Prof/Sci/Tech cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 93 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($33,084,698.58) is a concentration statistic, not a typical CO-04 Other Prof/Sci/Tech payment.
How to cite Other Prof/Sci/Tech in CO-04
Cite USAspending.gov: All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services (NAICS 541990) obligated $3,076,876,967.89 on 93 awards coded to Colorado 4th District (CO-04). Name All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services and Colorado 4th District (CO-04) together. Keep the obligation word. If Colorado 4th District or NAICS 541990 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a professional-license roster, a named-consultant file, or a residual catch-all of every NAICS. 13.5% of $22,721,014,071.34 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.
Keep All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services, Colorado 4th District (CO-04), $3,076,876,967.89, and 93 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. NAICS 541990 is the 541990 parent without a CO-04 filter. Colorado federal spending is the Colorado parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with Other Prof/Sci/Tech does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.
Reading a moderate Other Prof/Sci/Tech file in CO-04
93 awards is a moderate residual-services file. That count is not a consultant census. Alabama 1st and Tennessee 3rd reuse 541990 in this slice. Same residual NAICS does not merge those states. Do not invent a consultant roster. A large row count makes a product split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $33,084,698.58) and the district share (13.5% of $22,721,014,071.34) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Colorado 4th District and NAICS 541990 if the live tables moved.
Questions
- How much Other Prof/Sci/Tech spending is coded to Colorado 4th District (CO-04)?
- USAspending.gov lists $3,076,876,967.89 in All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services obligations across 93 awards with place of performance in Colorado 4th District (CO-04). NAICS 541990 × CO-04 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Colorado's complete federal ledger. The cell is 13.5% of the district's published total ($22,721,014,071.34). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $33,084,698.58, a ratio of those two facts only.
- Does $3,076,876,967.89 include every Other Prof/Sci/Tech product line in CO-04?
- The packet publishes one NAICS rollup. The packet does not split scientific from technical from other 541990 residual work, and it does not split contract versus assistance. $3,076,876,967.89 is the combined obligation sum for NAICS 541990 inside CO-04 coding. This page will not invent a product pie or name contractors. Open NAICS 541990 and Colorado 4th District to inspect parent tables. 93 remains an action count, not a product count.
- Is $3,076,876,967.89 cash already paid in Colorado 4th District (CO-04)?
- No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet's headline. Treating $3,076,876,967.89 as checks already cleared in Colorado 4th District (CO-04) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 93 awards. Prefer the live district and industry hubs if the tables moved.
- Where is the live Other Prof/Sci/Tech–CO-04 table?
- Colorado 4th District is the district parent and NAICS 541990 is the industry parent. Colorado federal spending covers Colorado without the district×industry intersection as the headline. All spending ties lists other pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $3,076,876,967.89. Place of performance is CO-04. Obligations are not outlays.
USAspending.gov congressional district place-of-performance joined to NAICS industry. Obligations are not outlays.
