Computer systems design services federal obligations in Kansas (NAICS 541512)

What the 541512–Kansas join is

NAICS 541512 and geography KS meet here. $640,096,988.02 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide computer systems design book, not Kansas’s entire federal inflow, and not an outlay. Custom programming (541511) and other computer services (541519) are sibling codes. Maryland has a much thicker 541512 cell; that book is not this total.

93 awards is a short design list beside $640,096,988.02. A short row list can still hold a large commitment if a few design vehicles dominate. The packet does not name a civilian agency, a campus, or a cleared shop inside the extract. Treating 93 as a headcount of Kansas engineers would misread award records. Those labels are ordinary speech, not extra packet dollars.

Open Kansas federal spending for every industry tagged to the state, NAICS 541512 for 541512 without a Kansas filter, Kansas industries for other Kansas NAICS pairs, and All spending ties for joins outside this computer systems design cell. Do not add those parents into $640,096,988.02.

A thin award list next to a large design total

Dividing $640,096,988.02 by 93 awards yields about $6.88 million per award. That mean is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical Wichita systems order and not a typical Kansas City, Kansas design line. Unique recipients are unpublished. 93 is not a count of engineers or badges.

Kansas geography invites an eastern-metro versus Wichita systems story. This extract does not split those metros. All share KS inside $640,096,988.02. Maryland’s 541512 cell is a separate join with far more rows.

Nationwide 541512 without a Kansas overlay is a different total

The national industry hub aggregates 541512 across every state. Kansas’s statewide hub aggregates every NAICS with an KS tag. Only awards that carry both 541512 and Kansas place of performance belong here, which is why this page cites 93 awards and $640,096,988.02.

Place of performance can follow a payee address, in-state work, or a reporting convention. 541512 awards coded to Missouri, Oklahoma, or Colorado do not enter this sum even if a vendor’s mailroom sits in Wichita. The join cannot re-allocate dollars along a Plains IT chain.

Obligations, not outlays, on the Kansas 541512 cell

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $640,096,988.02 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as design invoices already cleared in Kansas over-reads the field. 93 remains an award-record count, not a payment count.

What the Kansas–541512 pair does not prove

A large computer systems design total in Kansas does not mean the code caused Kansas’s industry mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation is not causation. Clearance levels and program names are not USAspending columns here.

Keep $640,096,988.02 labeled as NAICS 541512 obligations with Kansas place of performance. Kansas federal spending still includes other industries that must not be folded into this computer systems design cell. NAICS 541512 is 541512 without the Kansas filter. Kansas industries lists sibling Kansas codes.

How to cite systems design in Kansas

A clean footnote names NAICS 541512 (computer systems design), Kansas place of performance, $640,096,988.02 in obligations, and 93 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Mean dollars per action remain about $6.88 million. Do not merge 541511 into this design bucket. All spending ties indexes other pairs.

A later ingest can restate $640,096,988.02 without changing the join of 541512 and KS. Kansas federal spending still mixes every Kansas industry; do not quote that parent as 541512. NAICS 541512 is the national computer systems design code without the Kansas tag. Kansas industries keeps sibling Kansas codes unmerged. 93 is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-vendor census. Keep the obligation label on $640,096,988.02. Correlation is not causation. Ninety-three rows remain a record count, not a unique-vendor census. Maryland 541512 stays on its own page.

How much has NAICS 541512 obligated in Kansas?

USAspending.gov records $640,096,988.02 in obligations for NAICS 541512 with Kansas place of performance, covering 93 awards. That is an obligation aggregate for the computer systems design–Kansas pair, not an outlay figure and not the nationwide 541512 total. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

Why so few 541512 awards relative to $640M in Kansas?

The extract lists 93 award actions totaling $640,096,988.02. A short row list can still hold a large dollar total if a few awards dominate. Average obligation per award is about $6.88 million, a ratio, not a typical design order. Unique recipients are not published on this packet.

Is this the same as custom programming in Kansas?

No. Custom computer programming is NAICS 541511. This cell is 541512 only, totaling $640,096,988.02 across 93 awards. Quote systems design and Kansas together without merging those books. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. Keep both sides of the join in the citation.

Where are the live Kansas and 541512 tables?

Kansas federal spending shows all industries in the state. NAICS 541512 shows NAICS 541512 without a state filter. Kansas industries lists other Kansas industry pairs. All spending ties lists joins outside this cell. Prefer those hubs after later USAspending ingests.
