All other specialty trade contractors in the District of Columbia (NAICS 238990)

What the specialty-trade–District of Columbia join is

NAICS 238990 and place-of-performance state DC meet on this tie. $91,158,792.12 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide specialty-trade total, not the District’s statewide spending rollup, and not cash already paid. USAspending labels the industry All Other Specialty Trade Contractors; this overlay applies that code only where the District of Columbia is the geography field.

190 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Reading 190 as crews, buildings, or payrolls in the District would confuse actions with establishments. The join does not rank the District against states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

Open District of Columbia federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 238990 for the industry hub, District of Columbia industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parent pages into $91,158,792.12.

NAICS 238990 as the residual trade side

USAspending labels NAICS 238990 as All Other Specialty Trade Contractors. The packet does not name trades, buildings, or primes. Sharing a geography with facilities-support or highway codes does not merge those pages into this cell. The industry hub for NAICS 238990 does not require District geography; only this overlay applies both filters.

A second 238990 join in another state uses the same NAICS and a different dollar total. Do not treat the District’s figure as a synonym for every residual specialty-trade award in the catalog. Award titles on the NAICS 238990 page are the place to see what a given line bought. Keep the six-digit label when you cite the District cell.

Place of performance in the District of Columbia

The District of Columbia on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to District residents. DC POP is citywide, not a Capitol-only overlay. Place of performance can list DC while later work occurs in Maryland or Virginia; those states are not inside this total unless also coded DC.

The state hub for the District of Columbia shows how NAICS 238990 sits beside other industries in the same geography. This packet does not split wards, neighborhoods, or congressional districts. Contractor headquarters can differ from the place-of-performance tag. Open District of Columbia federal spending for the statewide parent.

Award count, mean, and obligations

190 awards against $91,158,792.12 produces a mean of about $479,783. That mean is still only a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical invoice. Award count 190 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the District of Columbia industries list and the NAICS 238990 hub.

An obligation is a legal commitment. $91,158,792.12 is that kind of sum. Outlays can lag. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing $91,158,792.12 as cash already spent in the District over-reads the field.

What this pair does not prove

A residual construction NAICS is not proof of a single prime and not proof that the District specialized in specialty trades because of federal demand. Keep $91,158,792.12 labeled as NAICS 238990 obligations with District of Columbia place of performance. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets; this page does not claim donations fund these obligations. Correlation is not causation.

Cite USAspending.gov, NAICS 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors), District of Columbia (DC), $91,158,792.12, and 190 awards. Note that the figures are obligations.

A residual specialty-trade NAICS is a label on the award, not a named trade list. Readers who reuse this snapshot should keep both sides of the join in the same sentence and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. 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 the District. Keep the obligation word on $91,158,792.12 in every footnote.
