Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services federal obligations in FY2026
USAspending.gov tags $232,541,030.99 to Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services (NAICS 541690) in fiscal year 2026. About 1.6 percent of a $14.32 billion residual scientific-consulting extract is an early-year cell. Residual codes will not be unbundled into named specialties. That pair is Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services (NAICS 541690) and federal fiscal year 2026 — not every federal dollar in FY2026, not Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services's $14,320,017,613.52 extract-wide book, and not cash already paid. The cell is 1.6% of this industry's published obligation total. 8,114 is the industry-extract award-record count, not a FY2026-only instrument tally. USAspending.gov is the source. Correlation is not causation.

Sci. & Tech Consulting obligations stamped to FY2026
NAICS 541690 and fiscal year 2026 meet here. $232,541,030.99 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on the yearlyTrend row that carries both tags. It is not Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services's nationwide all-year total of $14,320,017,613.52, not every federal dollar coded to FY2026, and not an outlay register. The packet does not unbundle the residual scientific-and-technical consulting code. 8,114 is an industry-extract action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows across years. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a residual-consulting specialty list, a named-firm roster, or a billed-hour log.
Open /industries/541690/ (NAICS 541690) for the industry table without this FY2026 filter, /fiscal-years/2026/ (FY2026 federal spending) for the year table without this NAICS filter, /industries/ (All industries) for every industry, and /ties/ (All spending ties) for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $232,541,030.99. Residual scientific consulting is not residual management consulting (541618) and not biotech R&D (541714). Keep 541690 on FY2026.
This page reports other scientific and technical consulting services activity USAspending tagged to FY2026. The headline $232,541,030.99 sits beside an industry-wide obligation total of $14,320,017,613.52; the 1.6% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of fiscal years as winners or losers. Obligations are not outlays. Named firms and billed hours are unpublished. Quote other scientific and technical consulting services with FY2026.
What Sci. & Tech Consulting contributes to this pair
USAspending labels NAICS 541690 as Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services. That code produced $232,541,030.99 when crossed with fiscal year 2026. The industry-wide 541690 hub does not require a FY2026 filter. The year hub does not require Sci. & Tech Consulting. Only this tie applies both filters. The packet does not unbundle the residual scientific-and-technical consulting code. FY2026 figures can be incomplete. A later ingest can restate the residual without changing the join keys.
Correlation is not causation: FY2026 did not cause $232,541,030.99 by existing as a large or small budget year. The join is 541690 × FY2026 only. This cell is not a residual-consulting specialty list, a named-firm roster, or a billed-hour log. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate. Eight thousand one hundred fourteen industry-extract award records describe 541690 across years, not a FY2026 firm census.
Action counts stay on the industry extract
8,114 is the Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services award-record count published with the industry extract, not a count of FY2026 instruments. Dividing $232,541,030.99 by 8,114 would mix a one-year dollar total with a multi-year row count, so this page does not publish that ratio as a typical invoice. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications and multi-year vehicles can add lines without adding vendors. Eight thousand one hundred fourteen industry-extract award records describe 541690 across years, not a FY2026 firm census. FY2026 figures can be incomplete for the current year, so even the dollar cell may still move.
Why this is not an outlay register
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $232,541,030.99 is that kind of sum for Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services in FY2026. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same NAICS rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $232,541,030.99 as given.
Treat 8,114 as award records on the industry extract, not unique vendors and not a FY2026 headcount. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. FEC contribution tables do not fund these awards. Named firms and billed hours are unpublished. Quote other scientific and technical consulting services with FY2026.
Live tables versus this snapshot
Cite USAspending.gov: Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services (NAICS 541690) obligated $232,541,030.99 in FY2026. Name Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services and FY2026 together. Keep the obligation word. If /industries/541690/ or /fiscal-years/2026/ has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a residual-consulting specialty list, a named-firm roster, or a billed-hour log. 1.6% of $14,320,017,613.52 is the industry share on this packet, not a budget score. /industries/ lists other industries; /ties/ indexes other pairs.
Keep Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services, FY2026, $232,541,030.99, and the 8,114-record industry extract together without mixing clocks. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a year with Sci. & Tech Consulting does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending yearlyTrend join. Residual scientific consulting is not residual management consulting (541618) and not biotech R&D (541714). Keep 541690 on FY2026.
Using 1.6% without overclaiming
Eight thousand one hundred fourteen industry-extract award records describe 541690 across years, not a FY2026 firm census. Residual scientific consulting is not residual management consulting (541618) and not biotech R&D (541714). Keep 541690 on FY2026. A reader who quotes 8,114 as unique companies in FY2026 has left the packet. A reader who treats 1.6% as a hardship or success ranking has added a score the table does not carry. Prefer /industries/541690/ and /fiscal-years/2026/ if the live tables moved. Named firms and billed hours are unpublished. Quote other scientific and technical consulting services with FY2026.
This snapshot holds $232,541,030.99 on the yearlyTrend row and 8,114 on the industry extract. /ties/ is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation. A reader who only quotes $232,541,030.99 without FY2026 and NAICS 541690 has dropped a join side.
Questions
- How much Sci. & Tech Consulting spending is obligated in FY2026?
- USAspending.gov lists $232,541,030.99 in Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services (NAICS 541690) obligations for FY2026. That yearlyTrend amount is 1.6% of the industry's $14,320,017,613.52 extract-wide total. It is an obligation join, not an outlay and not every federal dollar in FY2026. Unique recipients are unpublished.
- Is $232,541,030.99 the entire Sci. & Tech Consulting USAspending total?
- No. NAICS 541690's extract-wide total is $14,320,017,613.52. FY2026 is 1.6% of that book. Other fiscal-year rows for the same industry are separate cells. Do not add /industries/541690/ into this join. 8,114 award records stay on the industry extract, not on this yearlyTrend row.
- Is $232,541,030.99 cash already paid in FY2026?
- No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet's headline. Treating $232,541,030.99 as checks already cleared in FY2026 confuses those terms. Prefer the live industry and year hubs if the tables moved.
- What share of NAICS 541690 is FY2026?
- NAICS 541690 in FY2026 accounts for 1.6% of $14,320,017,613.52 in industry-wide obligations on this packet. That share is $232,541,030.99 ÷ $14,320,017,613.52. It is not a ranking of fiscal years and not an outlay share. Other years occupy the remaining industry total on other ties.
