Department of State (019) obligations in Security Guards and Patrol Services (NAICS 561612)

State 019 × 561612 is a guard-services join, not a headcount

Keep two filters in view. Awarding agency is Department of State, CGAC 019. Industry is NAICS 561612. The surviving file is $9,025,529,707.89 and 589 awards. The join is awarding-agency 019 crossed with NAICS 561612, not a local-guard-force headcount and not State’s $117,759,659,797.09 book. The extract does not list post names, guard names, or hours billed. 589 awards are not equal 589 guards or 589 posts.

Facilities support (561210) and other security codes sit outside this total unless they also carry 561612. Mixing those dollars into $9,025,529,707.89 would invent a roll-up. Correlation with a published local-guard-force count is not causation. High-threat-post folklore is not a post list in this packet. Parent $117,759,659,797.09 still includes every other NAICS tagged to agency 019.

589 awards behind $9.0 billion

Implied mean is about $15.32 million per award. That mean is not a typical guard contract and not an hourly bill rate. 589 is a row count, not a count of guards, posts, or missions. Modifications can sit beside base awards.

Five hundred eighty-nine lines belong on the agency 019 table, not in a narrative roster. Contractor names are unpublished here. Open Department of State rather than inventing a map of guarded missions. Do not infer a guard census from 589 lines.

Guard-service obligations are not shifts already stood

NAICS 561612 is a security-guards-and-patrol-services label on the award file. $9,025,529,707.89 is not a punch-list of shifts already stood and not cash already cleared. No fiscal year is published. A diplomatic-security staffing table is a different extract.

This extract does not split local-guard from U.S.-citizen contractor posts. DHS and DOJ also have 561612 joins on this slice; those awarding-agency keys are not 019. This page will not invent those shares.

What the State 019 × 561612 table omits

Missing: post names, guard names, or hours billed. Present: $9,025,529,707.89, 589, agency 019, NAICS 561612, parent $117,759,659,797.09. Threat-level labels are not a field in this packet. Do not rank agencies on this one NAICS cell.

NAICS 561612 is the industry parent. All agencies and All spending ties are indexes. FEC filings do not fund USAspending obligations. Quote the tagged pair only.

Where the State 019 × NAICS 561612 hubs live

Begin at Department of State for agency 019’s published $117,759,659,797.09 book, then NAICS 561612 for NAICS 561612 without the agency filter. All agencies lists other awarding agencies. All spending ties indexes other ties on the same obligation metric. 589 awards totaling $9,025,529,707.89 remain a guard-services administrative file, not a headcount. Post names and hours are not in this packet. USAspending.gov is the source. Do not annualize $9,025,529,707.89: no fiscal year is in the facts. Parent hubs are not addends for this cell.

How to read the State 019 × 561612 pair

A join is not a mission narrative. Agency 019 × NAICS 561612 = $9,025,529,707.89 on 589 awards. That equation is the page. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, not an outlay, and not a contractor directory. The pair does not prove Department of State caused Security Guards And Patrol Services work, or the reverse. Use Department of State, NAICS 561612, All agencies, and All spending ties to leave the intersection. If you need award-level names, open the agency hub rather than treating this narrative as a vendor roster. Post names and hours 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 019 spending is coded to NAICS 561612?

USAspending.gov shows $9,025,529,707.89 in obligations for Department of State (agency 019) coded to NAICS 561612, across 589 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the agency’s full $117,759,659,797.09 book. Other industries are outside this join unless they also carry 561612.

Do 589 awards mean 589 guards?

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

Is this the same as DHS guard services?

No. DHS guard services are agency 070 × 561612. This page is State 019 × 561612. The two awarding-agency codes have different parent books. Adding them invents a combined guard total. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. Keep both sides of the join in the citation.

Has $9.0 billion already been paid for guard hours?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $9,025,529,707.89 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Remaining balances are not published in this packet. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.
