All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services federal obligations in District of Columbia

What NAICS 541990 and District of Columbia share on one row

NAICS 541990 and place-of-performance state DC meet here. $500,752,431.90 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in District of Columbia, not the nationwide All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services total, and not cash already paid. Beltway residual-services folklore and statewide all other professional, scientific, and technical services stories may send a reader here. Those stories are not a plant list and not a professional-services actions census. NAICS 541990 is all other professional, scientific, and technical services, not computer systems design (541512) and not engineering services (541330).

1,284 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — thousands of rows beside $500,752,431.90. Thick books often mix small orders with larger vehicles. The join does not rank District of Columbia against other states and does not name vendors, facilities, or professional-services actions inside the extract. Unique recipients are unpublished on this page.

Open District of Columbia federal spending for the statewide table, NAICS 541990 for the industry hub without a District of Columbia filter, District of Columbia industries for other District of Columbia industry cells, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parent pages into $500,752,431.90.

A residual professional-services book in the District

Dividing $500,752,431.90 by 1,284 yields about $389,994 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical professional-services invoice. A second 541990 slice on another state uses the same NAICS code and a different dollar total. Do not treat District of Columbia's 541990 total as a synonym for every federal other professional services purchase. Beltway residual-services 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. 1,284 is an award-record count, including modifications, not a count of professional-services actions and not a unique-firm census. Keep 541990 and DC as the join key even when a later USAspending ingest restates $500,752,431.90.

NAICS 541990 without a District of Columbia overlay is a different total

The NAICS 541990 page aggregates NAICS 541990 without requiring DC geography. The District of Columbia federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with District of Columbia place of performance. District of Columbia industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 541990 filter and the DC filter, which is why it cites 1,284 awards and $500,752,431.90.

Place of performance in District of Columbia is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list DC while work occurs in Maryland or Virginia. 541990 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if a vendor's mailroom is in Northwest. This packet does not split Northwest, Capitol Hill, or Anacostia. Place of performance is a tag, not proof that every professional-services action stayed inside District of Columbia.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $500,752,431.90 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 District of Columbia over-reads the field. Award count 1,284 is a record count, not a payment count.

Readers who need transaction-level detail should use District of Columbia federal spending, NAICS 541990, and District of Columbia industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug. Keep the obligation label on $500,752,431.90 in every reuse.

What this District of Columbia–541990 pair does not prove

A all other professional, scientific, and technical services total in District of Columbia does not mean the industry caused District of Columbia's industrial mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between plant geography and other professional services awards is expected; it is not a finding about readiness, waste, or local employment. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset.

Keep $500,752,431.90 labeled as NAICS 541990 obligations with District of Columbia place of performance. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending. District of Columbia federal spending still includes other NAICS codes that must not be folded into this cell.

How to cite the District of Columbia–541990 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, And Technical Services), District of Columbia place of performance, $500,752,431.90 in obligations, and 1,284 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $500,752,431.90 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $389,994 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical professional-services invoice. District of Columbia federal spending, NAICS 541990, District of Columbia industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit.

A later ingest can restate $500,752,431.90 without changing the join of 541990 and DC. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Northwest-versus-Capitol Hill folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Do not treat 1,284 as a unique-firm census. Unique recipients are not published here. Keep NAICS 541990 and DC as the join key. Those stories are not a plant list and not a professional-services actions census. Correlation is not causation.

Readers who reuse DC other professional services | $500.8M should keep both sides of the join in the same sentence, cite USAspending.gov as the source, and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. The live hubs linked from this page can refresh the snapshot; this narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside District of Columbia. NAICS 541990 without the DC filter is a different total on NAICS 541990. Statewide spending without the 541990 filter is a different total on District of Columbia federal spending. District of Columbia industries keeps sibling District of Columbia codes unmerged. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Quote 1,284 awards and $500,752,431.90 together whenever the other professional services cell in District of Columbia is cited.
