Commercial And Institutional Building Construction federal obligations in California

What NAICS 236220 and California share on one row

NAICS 236220 and place-of-performance state CA meet here. $3,977,523,263 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in California, not the nationwide Commercial And Institutional Building Construction total, and not cash already paid. Statewide federal-campus and institutional-construction folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not a jobsite list and not a square-footage census.

3,200 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total. Thousands of rows can mix large campus awards with smaller instruments. The join does not rank California against other states and does not name jobsites inside the extract.

Open California federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 236220 for the next hub, California industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

Building-construction actions under a California geography tag

Dividing $3,977,523,263 by 3,200 yields about $1,242,976 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical federal-building contract. Repeat awards and modifications still add rows; the listed count is not a unique-contractor census. Project names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars.

Statewide federal-campus and institutional-construction 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.

NAICS 236220 without a California overlay is a different total

The NAICS 236220 page aggregates NAICS 236220 without requiring CA geography. The California federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with California place of performance. California industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 236220 filter and the CA filter, which is why it cites 3,200 awards and $3,977,523,263.

Place of performance in California is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list CA while later work occurs in Nevada or Arizona. 236220 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if the contractor’s mailroom is in Los Angeles. This packet does not split Los Angeles from the Bay Area or San Diego.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $3,977,523,263 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 California over-reads the field.

Award count 3,200 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use California federal spending, NAICS 236220, and California industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 236220 total in California does not mean builders caused California’s construction mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between population and building awards is expected; it is not a finding about cost overruns or waste.

Keep $3,977,523,263 labeled as NAICS 236220 obligations with California 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 California–236220 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 236220 (Commercial And Institutional Building Construction), California place of performance, $3,977,523,263 in obligations, and 3,200 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $3,977,523,263 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $1,242,976 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical federal-building contract.

California federal spending, NAICS 236220, California industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $3,977,523,263 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Los Angeles-versus-Bay Area folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Jobsite names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.

Do not treat a thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total as a unique-firm census. Unique recipients are not published here. Keep NAICS 236220 and CA as the join key even if a later USAspending ingest restates $3,977,523,263. Those stories are not a jobsite list and not a square-footage census.
