Department of Education obligations in Computer Systems Design (NAICS 541512)

Education × 541512 is a systems-design join

This page intersects one awarding agency and one six-digit industry. $1,727,487,186.48 is the obligation sum where both filters are true. The join is awarding agency 091 crossed with NAICS 541512, not the $398,145,700,789.94 Education agency total. It is not the Department of Education agency total of $398,145,700,789.94 and not a national NAICS 541512 total. Those parent tables live on the Department of Education hub and the NAICS 541512 hub. 0.43% of the agency book sits in this cell.

Ninety records is a relatively thin IT file with a high implied mean. 90 is an award-record count. Modifications can sit beside base awards. The packet does not say how many unique vendors produced the 90 lines. Reading 90 as plants, labs, or offices at Department of Education would confuse actions with establishments. This narrative does not invent recipient names.

Programming 541511 is a sibling, not this total

Agency 091 is Department of Education. Other education-sounding agencies are other codes. All agencies lists other toptier books. All spending ties indexes other agency–industry pairs. Do not sum those indexes into $1,727,487,186.48. The headline remains $1,727,487,186.48 on 90 awards for this pair alone.

NAICS 541512 is a Census industry code assigned on the award. The join is awarding agency 091 crossed with NAICS 541512, not the $398,145,700,789.94 Education agency total. Custom programming (541511) and management consulting (541611) are other Education cells in this slice. Those neighboring codes never enter $1,727,487,186.48 unless they also appear as 541512, which they do not. Keep the six-digit label when you cite the Department of Education cell. Computer Systems Design Services is NAICS 541512, not every Education IT dollar.

90 awards behind $1.73 billion

Dividing $1,727,487,186.48 by 90 produces about $19.19 million. That quotient is arithmetic, not a typical Department of Education contract. There is no median, no top-award table, and no fiscal-year breakout on this packet. Do not treat the mean as a posted unit price. The complement of this slice inside the agency book is $396,418,213,603.46.

Systems-design obligations are not live applications

USAspending obligations are commitments, not checks that have cleared. $1,727,487,186.48 can include amounts that will be paid later, cancelled, or modified. The packet does not publish outlays. 90 is not a payment count. Quote NAICS 541512 at Department of Education as obligations. FEC donations do not pay these awards; different datasets, same public web, no funding link.

Citing 091 × 541512

The computer systems design–Department of Education pair does not prove that Department of Education specialized in this industry because of federal demand, or the reverse. Computer Systems Design Services is NAICS 541512, not every Education IT dollar. Keep both sides of the join in any headline: Department of Education and NAICS 541512. Related pages: Department of Education hub, NAICS 541512, All agencies, and All spending ties. Readers who reuse this agency-industry snapshot should keep both sides of the join in the same sentence, cite USAspending.gov as the source, and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. The live hubs linked from this page can refresh the snapshot; this narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Keep the obligation word on the headline dollar figure in every footnote. Do not annualize the obligation sum; this packet publishes no fiscal-year series. Award modifications can sit beside base records in the same row count. Parent agency and industry tables remain on the hubs linked from this page. Campaign-finance receipts are a different dataset and do not fund these awards.

How much did Education obligate in NAICS 541512?

The pair totals $1,727,487,186.48 across 90 awards, per USAspending.gov agency topIndustries aggregates. Those are obligations for Computer Systems Design Services inside Department of Education coding, not outlays and not every federal dollar at Department of Education. Source filings stay on USAspending.gov.

Are 90 awards 90 IT vendors?

90 award records produced $1,727,487,186.48. About $19.19 million per award is $1,727,487,186.48 divided by 90, not a typical Department of Education purchase. The packet does not list unique recipients or a median award, so contractors stay unnamed here.
