Nonscheduled Chartered Freight Air Transportation federal obligations in Colorado (NAICS 481212)

What the chartered freight air–Colorado join is

NAICS 481212 and place-of-performance state CO meet on this tie. $1,158,393,933 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide total for chartered freight air, not Colorado’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. 481212 is nonscheduled chartered freight, not scheduled cargo and not California’s 481212 join.

168 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Dividing $1,158,393,933 by 168 yields about $6,895,202 per award on average. The join does not rank Colorado against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

Open Colorado federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 481212 for the industry hub, Colorado industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs.

NAICS 481212 as the industry side

USAspending labels NAICS 481212 as Nonscheduled Chartered Freight Air Transportation. Nonscheduled chartered freight air transportation is cargo charter, not passenger airline service. The packet does not name carriers or routes. Scheduled freight is another NAICS. The industry hub for NAICS 481212 does not require Colorado geography; only this overlay applies both filters.

A second chartered freight air join in another state uses the same NAICS and a different dollar total. Do not treat Colorado’s 481212 figure as a synonym for every chartered freight air award in the catalog. 481212 is nonscheduled chartered freight, not scheduled cargo and not California’s 481212 join. Award titles on the NAICS 481212 page are the place to see what a given line bought.

Award count, mean, and obligations

168 awards is a concentrated charter file compared with California’s 492-award 481212 join. Fewer rows can still carry a nine-figure mean. That mean is not a price per flight. Award count 168 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the Colorado industries list and the NAICS 481212 hub.

An obligation is a legal commitment. $1,158,393,933 is that kind of sum. Outlays can lag. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing $1,158,393,933 as cash already spent in Colorado over-reads the field.

What this pair does not prove

Do not rank Colorado against California on charter freight. Two POP filters, two joins. Obligations are not outlays and not flight-hour totals. Keep $1,158,393,933 labeled as NAICS 481212 obligations with Colorado place of performance. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets; this page does not claim donations fund these obligations.

A later ingest can restate $1,158,393,933 without changing the join key of NAICS 481212 and CO. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Open Colorado federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 481212 for the industry hub, Colorado industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs. Correlation is not causation.

A clean footnote names the NAICS, the place-of-performance state, the obligation dollar total, and the award-action count on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call the headline cash outlays. Metro folklore is not a packet split; awards stay statewide unless a different join says otherwise. A high award-action count is still a record count, including modifications. Original filings remain on the source site.
