Key figures
- NAICS 334290 in Utah: $169,351,764 across 86 awards.
- Average obligation per award is about $1,969,207.
- The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide communications equipment.
- UT is place of performance, not a metro split.
What the communications equipment–Utah join is
NAICS 334290 and place-of-performance state UT meet on this tie. $169,351,764 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide total for communications equipment, not Utah’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. 334290 is other communications equipment manufacturing, not search and navigation instruments (334511) and not electronic computer manufacturing (334111).
86 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Dividing $169,351,764 by 86 yields about $1,969,207 per award on average. The join does not rank Utah against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.
Open Utah federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 334290 for the industry hub, Utah industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs.
NAICS 334290 as the industry side
USAspending labels NAICS 334290 as Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing. Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing is a residual communications-hardware code when a more specific 3342xx does not fit as coded. The packet does not name radios, alarms, or primes. It is not 334511 search-and-navigation instruments. The industry hub for NAICS 334290 does not require Utah geography; only this overlay applies both filters.
A second communications equipment join in another state uses the same NAICS and a different dollar total. Do not treat Utah’s 334290 figure as a synonym for every communications equipment award in the catalog. 334290 is other communications equipment manufacturing, not search and navigation instruments (334511) and not electronic computer manufacturing (334111). Award titles on the NAICS 334290 page are the place to see what a given line bought.
Place of performance in Utah
Utah on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to Utah residents. Utah POP is statewide, not a Salt Lake-only overlay. Place of performance can list UT while later work occurs in Colorado or Idaho; those states are not inside this total unless also coded UT. Awards can list UT while later performance occurs elsewhere.
The state hub for Utah shows how NAICS 334290 sits beside other industries in the same geography. This packet does not split metros, counties, or congressional districts.

Award count, mean, and obligations
86 awards against a nine-figure obligation sum is a concentrated manufacturing file. Large lots can sit behind few rows. The mean is not a typical radio invoice. Award count 86 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the Utah industries list and the NAICS 334290 hub.
An obligation is a legal commitment. $169,351,764 is that kind of sum. Outlays can lag. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing $169,351,764 as cash already spent in Utah over-reads the field.
What this pair does not prove
A concentrated communications-equipment total does not rank Utah as more high-tech. Neighboring NAICS and neighboring states are other pages. Obligations are not outlays. Keep $169,351,764 labeled as NAICS 334290 obligations with Utah 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 $169,351,764 without changing the join key of NAICS 334290 and UT. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Open Utah federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 334290 for the industry hub, Utah 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.
