A thick office-supplies file on North Carolina

Office Supplies (Except Paper) Manufacturing as NAICS 339940, North Carolina as place of performance: 74,016 records summing to $216,980,488.14. A 339940 award coded outside NC is out. An award in North Carolina tagged to a different NAICS is out even if the work sounds related. North Carolina (NC) excludes Virginia, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia. A Virginia-coded supplies award is VA.

Seventy-four thousand sixteen awards against $216,980,488.14 is a high-count, low-mean file. Recurring catalog actions can mint tens of thousands of rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 74,016 as 74,016 unique SKU lines, unique plants, or named catalogs. North Carolina federal spending is the all-industry state hub. NAICS 339940 is the industry book without a NC filter. North Carolina industries lists other North Carolina industry cells. All spending ties indexes other joins.

Do not read 74,016 as 74,016 unique North Carolina factories. Unique recipients are unpublished. Correlation is not causation: North Carolina did not “cause” $216,980,488.14 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 339940 × NC only.

SKU counts are unpublished

$216,980,488.14 does not measure SKU lines, unique plants, or named catalogs. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with NAICS 339940 and a NC place-of-performance tag. Office supplies (except paper) manufacturing is 339940. Paper manufacturing is a different class. This cell excludes paper by definition of the NAICS title.

Do not treat 74,016 awards as a census of SKU lines, unique plants, or named catalogs. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If North Carolina federal spending or NAICS 339940 matched $216,980,488.14 and 74,016, the join would be pointless. Keep both keys on. Virginia, South Carolina, and Georgia 339940 joins are other pairs, not addends.

North Carolina is not a catalog-warehouse map

Place of performance NC is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. North Carolina (NC) excludes Virginia, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia. A Virginia-coded supplies award is VA. Recipient headquarters can differ from that state tag.

Do not read 74,016 as 74,016 unique North Carolina factories. Unique recipients are unpublished. This packet does not split $216,980,488.14 by city, county, or named facility. 74,016 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

High volume still means obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $216,980,488.14 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in North Carolina confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

North Carolina’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 74,016-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $216,980,488.14. Seventy-four thousand sixteen awards is the row count as USAspending grouped it, not a count of SKU lines, unique plants, or named catalogs.
