Department of Commerce obligations in Computer Systems Design Services (NAICS 541512)

Commerce × 541512 is a systems-design join, not a bureau IT map

Agency 013 and NAICS 541512 meet in this cell. $7,865,164,313.43 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Commerce’s entire $89,712,039,641.68 book, not the national NAICS 541512 total, and not an outlay. The join is awarding-agency 013 crossed with NAICS 541512, not a census-IT inventory and not Commerce’s entire $89,712,039,641.68 book. The pair is the only object this page measures. The extract does not list system names, vendor names, or seat counts.

589 award records sit beside $7,865,164,313.43. Treating 589 as equal 589 systems or 589 IT vendors would misread award rows as people, plants, or hulls. Unique recipients are unpublished. Other computer related services (541519) sit outside this total unless they also carry 541512. Those neighboring codes never enter $7,865,164,313.43 unless they also appear as 541512.

589 awards behind $7.9 billion

Dividing $7,865,164,313.43 by 589 yields about $13.35 million. That quotient is arithmetic, not a typical systems-design invoice and not a cost per seat. There is no median, no top-award table, and no fiscal-year breakout on this packet. Award count can include continuations. It is not a count of systems, bureaus, or vendors.

Five hundred eighty-nine lines belong on the Commerce table. This page will not list vendors. Open Department of Commerce rather than inventing a contractor roster. Do not convert 589 into a map of Commerce data centers. Census-versus-weather-service folklore is not a bureau split in this packet. Correlation with a published Commerce IT-system count is not in this join. About 8.8% of the $89,712,039,641.68 agency book sits in this NAICS cell — a ratio of two packet facts, not a policy ranking.

Systems-design obligations are not systems already accepted

NAICS 541512 is a computer systems design-services label on the award file. $7,865,164,313.43 is the commitment aggregate, not a punch-list of systems already accepted. No year field is published. A Commerce IT portfolio table is a different file unless it uses agency 013, NAICS 541512, and obligations.

This extract does not split Census, NOAA, or NIST systems inside 541512. Commerce also has a 541519 residual-IT join on this slice; that code is not 541512. This page will not invent a sub-NAICS share. The industry label stays Computer Systems Design Services. The awarding-agency label stays Department of Commerce.

What the Commerce 541512 table omits

Facts remain $7,865,164,313.43, 589 awards, agency 013, NAICS 541512, and parent $89,712,039,641.68. Missing fields include system names, vendor names, or seat counts. Bureau names inside Commerce are not a field in this packet. Do not rank this pair against other agencies’ 541512 cells as a winner or loser.

NAICS 541512 shows NAICS 541512 without the agency 013 filter. All agencies and All spending ties are indexes, not addends. FEC donation tables do not fund USAspending obligations; the two systems do not share a payment rail. Quote $7,865,164,313.43 as the tagged pair only.

Where the Commerce × NAICS 541512 hubs live

Department of Commerce is the agency 013 hub behind the $89,712,039,641.68 parent. NAICS 541512 is the industry hub. All agencies lists awarding agencies. All spending ties indexes other ties. 589 awards totaling $7,865,164,313.43 remain a systems-design administrative file, not a bureau census. Bureau splits and system names are not in this packet. USAspending.gov is the source. Do not annualize $7,865,164,313.43: no fiscal year is in the facts. Those four links are parents and indexes, not addends for this cell.

How to read the Commerce × 541512 pair

Two tables meet: awarding agency 013 and NAICS 541512. $7,865,164,313.43 is the obligation intersection, not a forecast and not an outlay. The join does not prove Department of Commerce caused Computer Systems Design Services work, or the reverse. Open Department of Commerce, NAICS 541512, All agencies, and All spending ties for parent totals. This narrative is not a vendor directory. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Questions

How much Commerce spending is coded to computer systems design?

USAspending.gov shows $7,865,164,313.43 in obligations for Department of Commerce (agency 013) coded to NAICS 541512, across 589 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the agency’s full $89,712,039,641.68 book. Other industries are outside this join unless they also carry 541512.

Do 589 awards mean 589 Commerce IT systems?

No. Award count is a row count of 589 actions and can include continuations. It is not a count of systems, bureaus, or vendors. The packet does not name recipients. See Department of Commerce for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is this mostly Census Bureau IT?

The packet does not split agency 013 by bureau. $7,865,164,313.43 is the combined 541512 obligation sum for Commerce. Census, NOAA, and NIST shares are unpublished. The parent Commerce book is $89,712,039,641.68. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

Are these IT dollars already paid?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $7,865,164,313.43 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Remaining balances are not published in this packet. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.
