- Awards are record rows, not a count of work orders, unique vendors, or named GAO buildings.

GAO × 561210 is a facilities-support join, not an audit census
Government Accountability Office as awarding agency 005, Facilities Support Services as NAICS 561210: 183 records summing to $99,298,908.72. The pair is awarding-agency 005 crossed with NAICS 561210, not GAO audit findings and not a building-operations census. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking, and not a claim that 183 awards equal that many work orders, unique vendors, or named GAO buildings. A Government Accountability Office award coded to a different NAICS is out. A 561210 award from a different awarding agency is out even if the work sounds related.
Security guards (561612) and computer-systems design sit on other GAO industry pages. Correlation between this obligation sum and mission outcomes is not causation. Those outcomes are not in the packet. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell. Government Accountability Office is the agency parent. NAICS 561210 is the industry parent. All agencies lists awarding agencies. All spending ties indexes other pairs.
183 GAO rows in the 561210 support bin
Mean obligation is about $542,617 if $99,298,908.72 were divided evenly across 183 lines. That ratio is a quotient of two packet facts, not a published typical award. One hundred eighty-three awards against $99.3 million is a thicker facilities-support book than a short guard file, still not a row per work order. Award count is a row count, including possible orders and modifications. It is not a census of work orders, unique vendors, or named GAO buildings.
One hundred eighty-three awards are a record count, not a vendor roster. This page will not invent recipient names. Named GAO buildings and support vendors are unpublished. Do not treat 183 as 183 unique facilities contractors. The $99,298,908.72 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. GAO’s full awarding-agency book is $765,932,457.62; mixing that parent into $99,298,908.72 invents a roll-up the packet never computed.
GAO facilities-support dollars are not square footage already maintained
An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. The $99,298,908.72 headline is the obligation sum, not facilities work already performed. No fiscal year is attached in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Citing the figure as cash already sent under Facilities Support Services confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.
Named GAO buildings and support vendors are unpublished. Do not treat 183 as 183 unique facilities contractors. Unique recipients are unpublished. Keep the obligation label on $99,298,908.72. FEC filings and USAspending awards are different datasets, even when the same vendor name appears in both systems.
What the GAO–561210 pair does not measure
The extract has no roster of work orders, unique vendors, or named GAO buildings. Facts remain $99,298,908.72, 183 awards, NAICS 561210, and Government Accountability Office (agency 005). This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling Government Accountability Office × NAICS joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score. Security guards (561612) and computer-systems design sit on other GAO industry pages.
Government Accountability Office places agency 005 among other awarding agencies. NAICS 561210 is the national industry hub. All agencies is the agency index. All spending ties indexes other awarding-agency × NAICS pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of GAO’s full awarding-agency book the packet never computed. The $99,298,908.72 figure is the tagged pair only.
Citing GAO with facilities support services
A clean footnote names Government Accountability Office (agency 005), Facilities Support Services (NAICS 561210), $99,298,908.72 in obligations, and 183 awards on USAspending.gov.

One hundred eighty-three awards totaling $99,298,908.72 remain a NAICS 561210 file, not a census of work orders, unique vendors, or named GAO buildings. Inspect named award lines on USAspending.gov rather than inferring inventories the packet omitted.
