Commercial And Institutional Building Construction federal obligations in Hawaii

Building construction and Hawaii as a pair

Commercial And Institutional Building Construction as the NAICS industry, Hawaii as place of performance: 813 records summing to $889,924,980.78. An award in this industry coded outside HI is out. An award in Hawaii from a different NAICS is out even if the work sounds related. Hawaii (HI) has no contiguous U.S. neighbor; Hawaii coding is not California or Guam. An award coded to California or another Pacific tag is out of this cell. Hawaii place-of-performance is a statewide tag, not Honolulu, Pearl Harbor, or a named island.

813 awards is a mid-count industry cell. Modifications and repeat instruments add rows without each one being a new establishment. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 813 as 813 unique firms. The overlay path for this pair is the ties page for commercial building construction in Hawaii. Hawaii federal spending is the all-industry state hub. NAICS 236220 is the industry book without a HI filter. Hawaii industries lists other NAICS cells inside the state. All spending ties lists other joins.

The implied mean is about $1,094,619 per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical project. Dollars and row counts tell different stories on the same join. Correlation is not causation: Hawaii did not “cause” $889,924,980.78 by existing as a large or small place, and NAICS 236220 did not “cause” the geography tag. Population, employment, and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 236220 × HI only.

What NAICS 236220 is not counting

$889,924,980.78 does not measure completed buildings, school campuses, or hospital wings placed in service. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. NAICS 236220 covers commercial and institutional building construction: nonresidential structures such as offices, schools, hospitals, warehouses, and other institutional buildings as coded on the award. It is not residential homebuilding, not highway work, and not a census of buildings opened. The cell sums award obligations with NAICS 236220 and a HI place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 813 awards as a census of buildings delivered. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Hawaii federal spending or the national NAICS 236220 table matched $889,924,980.78 and 813, the join would be pointless. Use the ties page when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state cells for the same NAICS are other pairs, not addends.

Hawaii statewide, not a local map

Place of performance HI is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Hawaii (HI) has no contiguous U.S. neighbor; Hawaii coding is not California or Guam. An award coded to California or another Pacific tag is out of this cell. Recipient headquarters can sit in another state while the place-of-performance tag remains HI. Contractor address is not this filter.

Hawaii place-of-performance is a statewide tag, not Honolulu, Pearl Harbor, or a named island. This packet does not split $889,924,980.78 by city, county, installation, or named facility. 813 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Do not infer a regional ranking from a single state×industry cell.

Obligations still are not outlays

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $889,924,980.78 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Hawaii confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Hawaii’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 813-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $889,924,980.78. Campaign-finance filings are a different dataset; this page does not treat donations as funding these awards.

Citing Building construction in Hawaii

Cite USAspending.gov: Commercial And Institutional Building Construction (NAICS 236220) obligated $889,924,980.78 on 813 awards coded to Hawaii. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as completed buildings, school campuses, or hospital wings placed in service.

Prefer the ties page for commercial building construction in Hawaii if a live overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Hawaii federal spending still includes every other NAICS tagged to HI. NAICS 236220 is the industry parent without the HI filter. Hawaii industries is the state’s industry index. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $889,924,980.78.

A usable footnote names Commercial And Institutional Building Construction, Hawaii, NAICS 236220, $889,924,980.78, and 813. The compact headline $890M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $1,094,619 is $889,924,980.78 divided by 813. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.

Questions

How much has the federal government obligated for commercial building construction in Hawaii?

USAspending.gov records $889,924,980.78 across 813 awards with NAICS 236220 and a Hawaii place-of-performance tag. That is an obligation join, not an outlay and not a count of buildings delivered. Keep both keys when quoting $889,924,980.78.

Does this total count buildings completed?

No. The packet publishes $889,924,980.78 and 813 awards for NAICS 236220 inside HI coding. Completed buildings, school campuses, or hospital wings placed in service are unpublished here. Unique recipients are unpublished. Quote the dollar total and the award count together. Obligations are not outlays.

Why does this Hawaii file have 813 awards?

That is the award-record count for 236220 × HI. Combined with $889,924,980.78, the average is about $1,094,619. Modifications and repeat instruments add rows. 813 is not unique buildings delivered. Later ingests can revise the count.

Where is the live table?

Hawaii federal spending and NAICS 236220 are the parents, not addends. Hawaii industries lists other NAICS cells in the state. All spending ties lists other pairs. Keep both sides of the join when citing $889,924,980.78. USAspending.gov is the source. Obligations are not outlays.
