NAICS 311991 as a catalog code, not a kitchen list

The industry is not other miscellaneous food manufacturing or a named commissary. $203,783,072.19 is 311991 only, inside Virginia only. Award titles on /industries/311991/ are the place to see what a given line bought. This extract does not name jobsites or primes.

Virginia tags without a plant map
Virginia place of performance can cover Richmond, Norfolk, or Arlington, or a reporting address. The packet has no county split. Ordinary maps mention Richmond, Norfolk, or Arlington. This extract has no such split. All of those places, if they appear at all, share VA inside $203,783,072.19.
A Virginia performance tag can sit on work whose parts, crews, or files moved through other states. The join reports the tag, not a bill of lading. /states/va/ uses the same place-of-performance rule for every industry on the state hub. Headquarters can sit elsewhere.
11,738 awards and a small per-row mean
About $17,360.97 per award comes from dividing $203,783,072.19 by 11,738.

No median and no fiscal-year slice appear in the facts. 11,738 is an unusually high row count; meal-card and delivery-order files often explode action counts.
