Other Computer Related Services federal obligations in Maryland

USAspending.gov records $3,651,864,627 in Other Computer Related Services (NAICS 541519) obligations with Maryland place of performance, across 11,819 awards. That pair is an industry code crossed with a geography filter, not a national IT budget. Average obligation per award is about $308,983 — a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical IT task order.

Key figures

  • NAICS 541519 in Maryland: $3,651,864,627 across 11,819 awards.
  • Average obligation per award is about $308,983.
  • The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide Computer services.
  • MD is place of performance, not a Fort Meade-only split.

What NAICS 541519 and Maryland share on one row

NAICS 541519 and place-of-performance state MD meet here. $3,651,864,627 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Maryland, not the nationwide Other Computer Related Services total, and not cash already paid. Fort Meade-adjacent and statewide IT-contractor folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not a vendor list and not a clearance census.

11,819 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — tens of thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total. A long row list can mix small task orders with larger instruments. The join does not rank Maryland against other states and does not name contractors inside the extract.

Open Maryland federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 541519 for the next hub, Maryland industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

Computer-services actions under a Maryland geography tag

Dividing $3,651,864,627 by 11,819 yields about $308,983 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical IT task order. A second 541519 slice on another state uses the same NAICS code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Maryland’s 541519 total as a synonym for every federal IT purchase.

Fort meade-adjacent and statewide it-contractor folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Recipient rows live on the industry and state hubs, not in this narrative’s extra columns.

NAICS 541519 without a Maryland overlay is a different total

The NAICS 541519 page aggregates NAICS 541519 without requiring MD geography. The Maryland federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Maryland place of performance. Maryland industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 541519 filter and the MD filter, which is why it cites 11,819 awards and $3,651,864,627.

Place of performance in Maryland is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list MD while work occurs in Virginia or D.C. 541519 awards coded to those jurisdictions do not sit in this total even if the vendor’s mailroom is in Bethesda. This packet does not split the D.C. suburbs from Baltimore or the Eastern Shore.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $3,651,864,627 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Maryland over-reads the field.

Award count 11,819 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Maryland federal spending, NAICS 541519, and Maryland industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 541519 total in Maryland does not mean IT firms caused Maryland’s contractor mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between agency geography and IT awards is expected; it is not a finding about cybersecurity or waste.

Keep $3,651,864,627 labeled as NAICS 541519 obligations with Maryland place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending.

How to cite the Maryland–541519 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), Maryland place of performance, $3,651,864,627 in obligations, and 11,819 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $3,651,864,627 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $308,983 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical IT task order.

Maryland federal spending, NAICS 541519, Maryland industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $3,651,864,627 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Baltimore-versus-D.C.-suburb folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Contractor names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.

Do not treat a tens of thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total as a unique-firm census. Unique recipients are not published here. Keep NAICS 541519 and MD as the join key even if a later USAspending ingest restates $3,651,864,627. Those stories are not a vendor list and not a clearance census.
