Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting, And Related Services federal obligations in Washington

Data processing tagged to Washington

Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting, And Related Services as NAICS 518210, Washington as place of performance: 322 records summing to $216,830,770.55. A 518210 award coded outside WA is out. An award in Washington tagged to a different NAICS is out even if the work sounds related. Washington (WA) excludes Oregon, Idaho, and Alaska. An Oregon-coded hosting award is OR.

Three hundred twenty-two awards against $216,830,770.55 is a mid-count services file, not a catalog flood and not a handful of mega-vehicles only. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 322 as 322 unique servers, unique data centers, or named cloud regions. Washington federal spending is the all-industry state hub. NAICS 518210 is the industry book without a WA filter. Washington industries lists other Washington industry cells. All spending ties indexes other joins.

Do not assign 322 awards to a named Washington campus. $216,830,770.55 stays statewide. Correlation is not causation: Washington did not “cause” $216,830,770.55 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 518210 × WA only.

Server counts are unpublished

$216,830,770.55 does not measure servers, unique data centers, or named cloud regions. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with NAICS 518210 and a WA place-of-performance tag. Computing infrastructure, data processing, web hosting, and related services are 518210. Software publishers are 511210. Wired carriers are 517110.

Do not treat 322 awards as a census of servers, unique data centers, or named cloud regions. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Washington federal spending or NAICS 518210 matched $216,830,770.55 and 322, the join would be pointless. Keep both keys on. Oregon, Idaho, and Alaska 518210 joins are other pairs, not addends.

Washington statewide, not a named-cloud-region map

Place of performance WA is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Washington (WA) excludes Oregon, Idaho, and Alaska. An Oregon-coded hosting award is OR. Recipient headquarters can differ from that state tag.

Do not assign 322 awards to a named Washington campus. $216,830,770.55 stays statewide. This packet does not split $216,830,770.55 by city, county, or named facility. 322 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Hosting awards still record as obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $216,830,770.55 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Washington confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Washington’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 322-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 $216,830,770.55. Three hundred twenty-two awards is the row count as USAspending grouped it, not a count of servers, unique data centers, or named cloud regions.
