Motor Vehicle Body Manufacturing in Montana (NAICS 336211)

NAICS 336211 dollars tagged to Montana

This page intersects one six-digit industry and one state. $12,793,068.74 is the obligation sum where both filters are true. NAICS 336211 is motor vehicle body manufacturing, not automobile manufacturing and not truck trailer manufacturing. It is not a statewide spending total and not a national NAICS 336211 total. Those parent tables live on Montana federal spending and NAICS 336211.

59 awards against $12.8 million is a mid-thickness body-shop manufacturing book rather than a two-line cell. 59 is an award-record count. Modifications can sit beside base awards. The packet does not say how many unique vendors produced the 59 lines. Reading 59 as body plants in Montana would confuse actions with establishments. Body manufacturing covers cabs, boxes, and similar structures, not a roster of finished passenger cars.

Montana industries lists other NAICS codes with MT place of performance. All spending ties indexes other state–industry pairs. Do not sum those indexes into $12,793,068.74. The headline remains $12,793,068.74 on 59 awards for this pair alone. Montana federal spending is larger because it includes other NAICS. NAICS 336211 is larger because it includes other states. This tie is the intersection.

Vehicle bodies, not complete automobile manufacturing

NAICS 336211 is a Census industry code assigned on the award. NAICS 336211 is motor vehicle body manufacturing, not automobile manufacturing (336110) and not truck trailer manufacturing (336212). Those neighboring codes never enter $12,793,068.74 unless they also appear as 336211, which they do not. Keep the six-digit label when you cite the Montana cell. Residual or neighboring codes are easy to merge in speech and wrong to merge in this table.

Dividing $12,793,068.74 by 59 produces about $216,831.67. That quotient is arithmetic, not a typical Montana 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. A high mean can be one vehicle; a low mean can be many delivery orders. This extract cannot tell those stories apart. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Montana geography on a 336211 cell

Montana place of performance can cover Billings, Missoula, a plant campus, or a reporting address. The packet has no county split. Inside the MT tag, Billings, Missoula, or a named vehicle manufacturing site are not broken out. The packet has one state key. Splitting $12,793,068.74 across those names would be invention. A named city can sit inside $12,793,068.74 only if its awards carry NAICS 336211 and MT — which this narrative cannot verify.

USAspending place of performance is a reporting field. It can diverge from headquarters, from where parts were made, or from where staff sat. This page repeats the coded Montana tag. It does not audit the field. Montana federal spending uses the same geography convention across industries. Place-of-performance geography is not the same as contractor headquarters.

Obligations, not outlays, on Montana 336211

USAspending obligations are commitments, not checks that have cleared. $12,793,068.74 can include amounts that will be paid later, cancelled, or modified. The packet does not publish outlays. 59 is not a payment count. Quote NAICS 336211 in Montana as obligations and leave fiscal-year folklore off the citation — years are unpublished here. Do not call $12,793,068.74 “spent in Montana this year.”

What the vehicle-body–Montana pair does not prove

The vehicle-body–Montana pair does not prove that Montana specialized in this industry because of federal demand, or the reverse. Correlation is not causation. Federal awards in one NAICS do not explain Montana employment, and itemized campaign gifts do not pay USAspending obligations. Different statutes, different tables. This page names no contractors. Cite NAICS 336211 and Montana together so the join stays visible. Montana industries and All spending ties are the related indexes.

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. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside the named state.
