Department of State (072) obligations in Administrative and General Management Consulting (NAICS 541611)

State 072 × 541611 is a consulting-code join, not a headcount

NAICS 541611 is an administrative-and-general management consulting label on the award file. The dollar figure $14,299,244,267.90 applies only where agency 072 and NAICS 541611 are both present. Department of State is larger because it includes other industries. NAICS 541611 is larger because it includes other agencies. This tie is the intersection. The extract does not list firm names, consultant names, or engagement titles.

610 actions produced the cell. Award rows are not the same as establishments in the Economic Census. A single vendor can hold several of the 610 records. The packet does not identify vendors. 610 is not equal 610 consultants or 610 task orders as unique people.

610 awards behind $14.3 billion

Residual professional services (541990) and other consulting specialties sit outside this total unless they also carry 541611. Residual or neighboring codes are easy to merge in speech and wrong to merge in this table. $14,299,244,267.90 stays inside agency 072 × NAICS 541611 only. Mean obligation is about $23.44 million, not a typical consulting engagement and not a loaded daily rate. Count is not a count of consultants, bureaus, or firms.

Six hundred ten lines belong on the agency 072 table. This page will not list them. This page will not invent contractor names. Open Department of State for stored agency rows. Do not convert 610 into a map of consulting engagements or infer a consultant census. Bureau-versus-mission folklore is not an office split in this packet. About 8.6% of $165,614,781,383.14 sits in this NAICS slice — still not a ranking.

Consulting obligations are not recommendations already adopted

$14,299,244,267.90 is the commitment sum, not a punch-list of recommendations already accepted. No fiscal year is in the facts. A State management-support spend plan is not this join unless it uses the same two keys and the obligation metric.

The listing title is Administrative Management And General Management Consulting Services. This extract does not split strategy from operations consulting, and it does not split domestic from overseas work. Agency 019 has a separate 541611 join on this slice (slug ending -2); do not add the two State codes. Inventing those splits would leave the packet.

What the State 072 × 541611 table omits

Omitted fields include firm names, consultant names, or engagement titles. Remaining facts: $14,299,244,267.90, 610 awards, agency 072, NAICS 541611, parent $165,614,781,383.14. Firm names are unpublished here even when 610 lines exist.

NAICS 541611, All agencies, and All spending ties are related shelves. Adding them to $14,299,244,267.90 invents a share. Donations reported to the FEC do not pay these awards. Different statutes, different tables.

Where the State 072 × NAICS 541611 hubs live

Cite from Department of State and NAICS 541611, then use All agencies and All spending ties for context. 610 awards totaling $14,299,244,267.90 remain a consulting-coded administrative file, not a consultant census. Engagement titles and daily rates are not in this packet. Do not annualize $14,299,244,267.90. USAspending.gov is the originating system.

How to read the State 072 × 541611 pair

The relationship is mechanical: agency 072 plus NAICS 541611 roll into $14,299,244,267.90. Remove either filter and the number changes. This page never claims the pair caused the other side to exist. If you need names, leave this narrative. Engagement titles and daily rates are not in this packet. Readers who reuse this agency-industry snapshot should keep both keys in the same sentence, cite USAspending.gov, and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. This narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total the packet omitted. Keep the obligation word on the headline dollar figure in every footnote. A later ingest can restate the headline dollars without changing the join itself. Do not add parent hubs into this cell. Unique recipients remain unpublished. Mean dollars per award stay a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical invoice.

Questions

How much State agency 072 spending is coded to NAICS 541611?

USAspending.gov shows $14,299,244,267.90 in obligations for Department of State (agency 072) coded to NAICS 541611, across 610 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the agency’s full $165,614,781,383.14 book. Other industries are outside this join unless they also carry 541611.

Do 610 awards mean 610 management consultants?

No. Award count is a row count of 610 actions and can include continuations. It is not a count of consultants, bureaus, or firms. The packet does not name recipients. See Department of State for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is this the same as State agency 019’s 541611 join?

No. Agency 019 has its own 541611 page on this slice with a different parent total. This page is 072 × 541611 only. Adding 019 and 072 invents a combined State consulting figure. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. Keep both sides of the join in the citation.

Are these consulting dollars already paid?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $14,299,244,267.90 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Remaining balances are not published in this packet. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.
