Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences R&D in the District of Columbia (NAICS 541715)

District of Columbia and NAICS 541715 as an R&D join

NAICS 541715 and place-of-performance state DC meet on this tie. $124,911,586.42 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the District of Columbia's statewide federal total, not an outlay, and not a national 541715 roll-up. The NAICS title excepts nanotechnology and biotechnology; those excepted lines are not rolled into $124,911,586.42 unless they also carry 541715, which they would not if coded to their own keys.

391 is an award-action count. Unique labs and primes are unpublished. The join does not rank the District against states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

Open District of Columbia federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 541715 for the industry hub, District of Columbia industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs.

Physical, engineering, and life sciences R&D, except nano and biotech

USAspending labels NAICS 541715 as Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology). Biotechnology R&D except nanobiotechnology is a different six-digit key. Sharing an R&D vocabulary does not merge those codes into $124,911,586.42. The industry hub for NAICS 541715 does not require the District of Columbia.

The packet names no laboratories, agencies, or primes. Award titles on the NAICS 541715 page are the place to see what a given line bought. Do not treat the overlay as a census of DC research campuses.

Place of performance in the District of Columbia

District of Columbia on this join is a geography field. Awards can list DC while later laboratory work occurs in Maryland or Virginia; those states are not inside this total unless also coded DC. The packet does not split wards or neighborhoods.

The state hub for the District of Columbia shows how 541715 sits beside other industries with DC place of performance. Awards can list the District while headquarters sit elsewhere.

391 awards behind $124,911,586.42

Dividing $124,911,586.42 by 391 yields about $319,467 per award on average. That ratio is packet arithmetic, not a typical research invoice. Award count 391 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use District of Columbia industries and the NAICS 541715 hub.

An obligation is a legal commitment. $124,911,586.42 is that kind of sum. This packet has no outlay total. Citing the figure as cash already spent in DC laboratories over-reads the field.

What the 541715–DC pair does not prove

An R&D NAICS plus the District of Columbia is not a science ranking and is not a claim that campaign contributions funded the awards. FEC filings and USAspending awards are different datasets. Keep $124,911,586.42 labeled as NAICS 541715 obligations with District of Columbia place of performance.

A later ingest can restate the dollars or the 391 count without changing the join key of NAICS 541715 and DC. Correlation is not causation.

How to read the DC 541715 hubs

Readers who only need the headline can stop at NAICS 541715 in the District of Columbia: $124,911,586.42 across 391 awards. Nothing in the packet supports a contractor roster or a fiscal-year split.

The District's 541715 cell excepts nanotechnology and biotechnology by title. 391 awards and $124,911,586.42 stay on this R&D join. Use District of Columbia federal spending and NAICS 541715 for the parent rollups.

Reuse $124,911,586.42 only with this physical/engineering/life-sciences R&D code and the District of Columbia in the same citation. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

Quote both keys when you reuse the figure: NAICS 541715 (Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology)) and District of Columbia place of performance. $124,911,586.42 is the intersection, not a parent rollup. 391 awards against $124,911,586.42 is a mid-count research and development in the physical, engineering, and life sciences (except nanotechnology and biotechnology) file in District of Columbia. The mean of about $319,467 is packet arithmetic, not a typical invoice. The four hubs—District of Columbia federal spending, NAICS 541715, District of Columbia industries, and All spending ties—are larger than this cell and should not be added into $124,911,586.42.

This extract publishes no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, no unique-vendor count, and no named contractors. Place of performance DC does not locate a county or a facility. Keep FEC contribution tables off this page; they do not fund these USAspending obligations. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

Questions

How much has NAICS 541715 obligated in the District of Columbia?

USAspending.gov records $124,911,586.42 in obligations for NAICS 541715 (Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology)) with District of Columbia place of performance, covering 391 awards. That is an obligation total, not an outlay. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

Does this DC total include biotechnology R&D?

Not under this key. NAICS 541715 excepts nanotechnology and biotechnology. Biotechnology R&D uses a different NAICS. The $124,911,586.42 and 391 awards here do not absorb that excepted code. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. Cite $124,911,586.42 only with NAICS 541715 and District of Columbia place of performance. Unique vendors are unpublished.

Do 391 awards mean 391 laboratories in DC?

No. The extract lists 391 awards totaling $124,911,586.42. Modifications can multiply rows. Unique vendors are unpublished. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. Cite $124,911,586.42 only with NAICS 541715 and District of Columbia place of performance. Unique vendors are unpublished.

Where is the live 541715–DC table?

District of Columbia federal spending is the state rollup. NAICS 541715 is the industry hub without a state filter. District of Columbia industries lists other NAICS in DC. All spending ties lists other pairs. The $124,911,586.42 and 391 awards are the 541715×DC join only. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.
