Wisconsin and other building finishing as a pair

NAICS 238390 and place-of-performance state WI meet on this tie. $49,357,521.35 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Wisconsin's statewide federal total, not the nationwide other building finishing contractors rollup, and not cash already paid. USAspending labels the industry Other Building Finishing Contractors; this overlay applies that code only where Wisconsin is the geography field.

925 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Reading 925 as plants, offices, or payrolls in Wisconsin would confuse actions with establishments. The join does not rank Wisconsin against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

Open Wisconsin federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 238390 for the industry hub, Wisconsin industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parent pages into $49,357,521.35.

NAICS 238390, not ships or cheese

USAspending labels NAICS 238390 as Other Building Finishing Contractors. The packet does not name trades, jobs, or primes. The word contractors is the Census industry label, not a roster of named firms. Wisconsin ship building (336611) on this slice is $52,264,852.14 across 219 awards. Yards are not finishing contractors.

Wisconsin cheese manufacturing (311513) is $48,067,631.74 across 225 awards; communications equipment (334290) is $54,427,063.88 across 720 awards; small arms (332994) is $53,951,565.76 across 2,686 awards. Sharing WI geography does not merge those codes into $49,357,521.35. Award titles on the NAICS 238390 hub are the place to see what a given line bought.

Place of performance in Wisconsin

Wisconsin on this join is a geography field, not a Green Bay-only overlay. Place of performance can list WI while later work occurs in Minnesota or Illinois; those states are not inside this total unless also coded WI. The packet does not split counties.

The state hub for Wisconsin shows how 238390 sits beside other industries with WI place of performance. Awards can list Wisconsin while headquarters sit elsewhere.

925 awards and a mid-five-figure mean

Dividing $49,357,521.35 by 925 yields about $53,381 per award on average. Catalog lines can mint hundreds of rows. Award count 925 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census.

An obligation is a legal commitment. $49,357,521.35 is that kind of sum. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing the figure as cash already spent in Wisconsin over-reads the field.

What the finishing-Wisconsin join does not prove

A building-finishing cell is not proof of a single Wisconsin trade prime and not a claim that campaign contributions funded the awards. FEC filings and USAspending awards are different datasets. Keep $49,357,521.35 labeled as NAICS 238390 obligations with Wisconsin place of performance. Correlation is not causation.

A later ingest can restate $49,357,521.35 or the 925 count without changing the join key of NAICS 238390 and WI. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside Wisconsin. Keep the obligation word on $49,357,521.35 in every footnote.

How to cite building finishing in Wisconsin

This narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Wisconsin's 238390 cell is other building finishing contractors. 925 awards and $49,357,521.35 are not other NAICS in the same state and not the same NAICS in another state unless those figures appear above.
