Engineering Services federal obligations in FY2024 (NAICS 541330)

USAspending.gov records $279,329,362,865.40 in Engineering Services (NAICS 541330) obligations for fiscal year 2024. That FY2024 slice is about 86.9% of the industry’s published $321,520,532,189.14 obligation total across the extract. The pair is Engineering Services and FY2024 — not a PE-license census, not a named A/E roster, and not cash already paid. The industry parent lists 58,198 awards across the published extract; that count is not a FY2024-only row total. Correlation is not causation.

Key figures

  • Engineering Services in FY2024: $279,329,362,865.40 (NAICS 541330).
  • About 86.9% of the industry’s $321,520,532,189.14 extract total.
  • 58,198 is the industry-wide award count, not a FY2024 row total.
  • The join is NAICS 541330 × FY2024, not a PE-license census.
  • Figures are USAspending obligations, not outlays.

NAICS 541330 × FY2024 is an engineering join, not a stamp inventory

This page is a join: Engineering Services and fiscal year 2024. $279,329,362,865.40 is the obligation sum USAspending.gov attributes to NAICS 541330 in that fiscal year on the yearlyTrend series. It is not every federal dollar in FY2024, not Engineering Services’s lifetime book restated as a single year, and not an outlay register. NAICS 541330 is the industry parent. FY2024 federal spending is the year parent. Correlation is not causation.

The industry extract totals $321,520,532,189.14. FY2024’s $279,329,362,865.40 is the year slice of that book, about 86.9%. Remaining industry dollars sit in other fiscal years on the same NAICS, not inside this join. 58,198 is the industry-wide award count in this extract, not a FY2024 action count. Do not divide $279,329,362,865.40 by 58,198 and call the result a typical FY2024 engineering task order. Unique recipients are unpublished. This page will not invent contractors or licensed engineers. FEC contribution tables do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Engineering Services as a NAICS label

USAspending labels industry 541330 as Engineering Services. That code produced $279,329,362,865.40 when filtered to FY2024. The industry hub does not require a FY2024 filter. The fiscal-year hub does not require NAICS 541330. Only this tie applies both filters. The packet does not split civil from mechanical, systems from environmental, or contract from assistance.

SpendingVault does not grade Engineering Services on billable hours or policy. $279,329,362,865.40 is an obligation sum, not a verdict. Adjacent professional-services NAICS codes remain outside this cell even when the work sounds related. Open NAICS 541330 for the industry rollup without the year filter, FY2024 federal spending for the year rollup without the industry filter, All industries for the NAICS index, and All spending ties for other pairs.

FY2024 on the yearlyTrend series

Fiscal year 2024 on this join is a USAspending yearlyTrend bucket, not a claim that every obligated dollar was designed or inspected in calendar 2024. Awards can list FY2024 while performance stretches across adjacent years. FY figures can be incomplete; this snapshot reports $279,329,362,865.40 as given. Other fiscal years for NAICS 541330 belong on those ties.

FY2024 federal spending shows how Engineering Services sits beside other industries in the same year extract. $279,329,362,865.40 is one industry-year column, not the year table. The 86.9% industry share describes this join, not a ranking of industries as winners or losers. Architecture, surveying, and computer-systems NAICS codes keep their own yearlyTrend cells even when the work sits on the same design package in ordinary speech.

58,198 is the industry parent count

58,198 awards describe the Engineering Services extract, not the FY2024 slice alone. Mixing that count with $279,329,362,865.40 invents a per-award FY figure the packet does not publish. Treat 58,198 as the industry parent’s action count. This cell is not a PE-license census, a drawing-set inventory, or a named-prime file.

Obligations versus drawings already stamped

An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment from the Treasury. $279,329,362,865.40 is the commitment figure for Engineering Services in FY2024. This packet has no outlay total, so none is invented. Citing the figure as cash already spent on design work over-reads the field. Keep both sides: Engineering Services (NAICS 541330) and FY2024.

State PE boards and named-program engineering budgets answer other questions. They are not the source of this cell. If a chart mixes commercial A/E billings with NAICS 541330 in FY2024, the chart has left the federal award series.

How to cite the 541330 × FY2024 pair

Cite: Engineering Services (NAICS 541330) obligated $279,329,362,865.40 in FY2024, per USAspending.gov yearlyTrend. Keep both keys. Keep the word obligations. Prefer NAICS 541330 and FY2024 federal spending when live tables move. None of those links convert this cell into a license census, into a FY2024 award census this packet omits, or into a contractor list. Later bulk files can move both the FY2024 dollars and the industry $321,520,532,189.14 parent; quote the live hubs when the overlay and this snapshot diverge. Do not rank Engineering Services as a winner or loser versus other NAICS on the 86.9% share alone.

Where are the live NAICS 541330 and FY2024 tables?
NAICS 541330 is the industry parent. FY2024 federal spending is the year parent. All industries is the NAICS index. All spending ties lists other pairs. This page quotes 541330 × FY2024 at $279,329,362,865.40.
