Custom computer programming services federal obligations in Maryland (NAICS 541511)

What the 541511–Maryland join is

NAICS 541511 and geography MD meet here. $701,256,505.71 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide custom computer programming book, not Maryland’s entire federal inflow, and not an outlay. Systems design (541512) and other computer services (541519) are sibling codes. Maryland already has a 541512 cell; do not merge it here.

1,752 awards is a thick software-services list beside $701,256,505.71. Thick IT books often mix small task orders with larger programming vehicles. Treating 1,752 as Maryland programmers would misread award records as people. The packet does not name a civilian agency or a cleared campus inside the extract. Treating 1,752 as a headcount of Maryland programmers would misread award records. Those labels are ordinary speech, not extra packet dollars.

Open Maryland federal spending for every industry tagged to the state, NAICS 541511 for 541511 without a Maryland filter, Maryland industries for other Maryland NAICS pairs, and All spending ties for joins outside this custom computer programming cell. Do not add those parents into $701,256,505.71.

A programming book that is not 541512

Dividing $701,256,505.71 by 1,752 awards yields about $400,261 per award. That mean is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical Bethesda coding order and not a typical Fort Meade-adjacent line. Unique recipients are unpublished. 1,752 is not a count of developers or badges.

Maryland geography invites a National Capital Region story. This extract does not split Montgomery, Prince George’s, or Anne Arundel counties. All share MD inside $701,256,505.71. District of Columbia 541519 is a different cell.

Nationwide 541511 without a Maryland overlay is a different total

The national industry hub aggregates 541511 across every state. Maryland’s statewide hub aggregates every NAICS with an MD tag. Only awards that carry both 541511 and Maryland place of performance belong here, which is why this page cites 1,752 awards and $701,256,505.71.

Place of performance can follow a payee address, in-state work, or a reporting convention. 541511 awards coded to Virginia or the District of Columbia do not enter this sum even if a vendor’s mailroom sits in Rockville. The join cannot re-allocate dollars along a Beltway IT chain.

Obligations, not outlays, on the Maryland 541511 cell

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $701,256,505.71 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as code already delivered in Maryland over-reads the field. 1,752 remains an award-record count, not a payment count.

What the Maryland–541511 pair does not prove

A large custom computer programming total in Maryland does not mean the code caused Maryland’s industry mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation is not causation. Clearance levels and agency programs are not USAspending columns here.

Keep $701,256,505.71 labeled as NAICS 541511 obligations with Maryland place of performance. Maryland federal spending still includes other industries that must not be folded into this custom computer programming cell. NAICS 541511 is 541511 without the Maryland filter. Maryland industries lists sibling Maryland codes.

How to cite custom programming in Maryland

A clean footnote names NAICS 541511 (custom computer programming), Maryland place of performance, $701,256,505.71 in obligations, and 1,752 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Mean dollars per action remain about $400,261. Do not merge 541512 into this programming bucket. All spending ties indexes other pairs.

A later ingest can restate $701,256,505.71 without changing the join of 541511 and MD. Maryland federal spending still mixes every Maryland industry; do not quote that parent as 541511. NAICS 541511 is the national custom computer programming code without the Maryland tag. Maryland industries keeps sibling Maryland codes unmerged. 1,752 is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-vendor census. Keep the obligation label on $701,256,505.71. Correlation is not causation. Maryland 541512 remains a sibling page, not this total.
