Automobile Manufacturing federal obligations in Michigan

What NAICS 336111 and Michigan share on one row

NAICS 336111 and place-of-performance state MI meet here. $3,340,785,642 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Michigan, not the nationwide Automobile Manufacturing total, and not cash already paid. Detroit assembly-line folklore and statewide auto-plant stories may send a reader here. Those stories are not a plant list and not a vehicle census.

67,590 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 supply actions with larger instruments. The join does not rank Michigan against other states and does not name plants inside the extract.

Open Michigan federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 336111 for the next hub, Michigan industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

A long automobile-manufacturing award list under one Michigan filter

Dividing $3,340,785,642 by 67,590 yields about $49,427 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical vehicle contract. Repeat awards and modifications still add rows; the listed count is not a unique-plant census. Plant names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars.

Detroit assembly-line folklore and statewide auto-plant stories 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 336111 without a Michigan overlay is a different total

The NAICS 336111 page aggregates NAICS 336111 without requiring MI geography. The Michigan federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Michigan place of performance. Michigan industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 336111 filter and the MI filter, which is why it cites 67,590 awards and $3,340,785,642.

Place of performance in Michigan is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list MI while assembly occurs in Ohio or Indiana. 336111 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if a plant’s mailroom is in Detroit. This packet does not split Detroit from Flint or Grand Rapids.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $3,340,785,642 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 Michigan over-reads the field.

Award count 67,590 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Michigan federal spending, NAICS 336111, and Michigan industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 336111 total in Michigan does not mean automakers caused Michigan’s industrial mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between auto geography and federal awards is expected; it is not a finding about vehicle quality or waste.

Keep $3,340,785,642 labeled as NAICS 336111 obligations with Michigan 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 Michigan–336111 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 336111 (Automobile Manufacturing), Michigan place of performance, $3,340,785,642 in obligations, and 67,590 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $3,340,785,642 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $49,427 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical vehicle contract.

Michigan federal spending, NAICS 336111, Michigan industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $3,340,785,642 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Detroit-versus-Grand Rapids folklore is not a metro split in this packet. A long award list is still a record count, including modifications. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.

Do not treat a tens of thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total as a unique-firm census. Unique recipients are not published here. Keep NAICS 336111 and MI as the join key even if a later USAspending ingest restates $3,340,785,642. Those stories are not a plant list and not a vehicle census.
