Software publishers federal obligations in Colorado (NAICS 511210)

NAICS 511210 and Colorado as a software-publishers join

This page intersects one six-digit industry and one state. $131,531,620.45 is the obligation sum where both filters are true. NAICS 511210 is software publishers under the older Census numbering, not custom computer programming. It is not a statewide spending total and not a national NAICS 511210 total. Those parent tables live on Colorado federal spending and NAICS 511210.

251 awards against $131.5 million is a busy publishing cell rather than a single license vehicle. 251 is an award-record count. Modifications can sit beside base awards. The packet does not say how many unique vendors produced the 251 lines. Reading 251 as factories, ships, or clinics in Colorado would confuse actions with establishments.

Colorado industries lists other NAICS codes with CO place of performance. All spending ties indexes other state–industry pairs. Do not sum those indexes into $131,531,620.45. The headline remains $131,531,620.45 on 251 awards for this pair alone.

Publishers on 511210, not custom code or 513210

NAICS 511210 is a Census industry code assigned on the award. NAICS 511210 is software publishers under the older Census numbering, not custom computer programming. Custom computer programming (541511) and the later software-publishers numbering (513210) are different codes. Those neighboring codes never enter $131,531,620.45 unless they also appear as 511210, which they do not. Keep the six-digit label when you cite the Colorado cell. The Colorado 513210 join is a different page.

SaaS folklore is ordinary speech, not extra packet dollars. Do not fold 511210 into 513210. Unique contractors are unpublished. Dividing $131,531,620.45 by 251 produces about $524,030. That quotient is arithmetic, not a typical Colorado contract. There is no median, no top-award table, and no fiscal-year breakout on this packet. Do not treat the mean as a posted unit price.

Colorado geography on a software-publishers cell

Colorado place of performance can cover Denver, Colorado Springs, or a reporting address in Boulder. The packet has no site split. Inside the CO tag, named cities are not broken out. The packet has one state key. A named city can sit inside $131,531,620.45 only if its awards carry NAICS 511210 and CO — which this narrative cannot verify.

Place-of-performance geography is not the same as contractor headquarters. A firm based elsewhere can perform in Colorado, and a Colorado address can appear on work done out of state. This join reports the coded pair, not a logistics map. Colorado federal spending remains the statewide parent.

Obligations versus outlays for Colorado 511210

USAspending obligations are commitments, not checks that have cleared. $131,531,620.45 can include amounts that will be paid later, cancelled, or modified. The packet does not publish outlays. 251 is not a payment count. Quote NAICS 511210 in Colorado as obligations and leave fiscal-year folklore off the citation — years are unpublished here.

What the software-publishers–Colorado pair does not prove

The software-publishers–Colorado pair does not prove that Colorado specialized in this industry because of federal demand, or the reverse. SaaS folklore is ordinary speech, not extra packet dollars. Do not fold 511210 into 513210. Unique contractors are unpublished. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; donations do not fund these awards. Keep both sides of the join in any headline: NAICS 511210 and Colorado.

How to cite NAICS 511210 in Colorado

Cite USAspending.gov, NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers), Colorado (CO), $131,531,620.45, and 251 awards. Note that the figures are obligations. Point readers to Colorado federal spending, NAICS 511210, Colorado industries, and All spending ties rather than collapsing those pages into this cell. Mean per award stays about $524,030 as a ratio only. Readers who reuse this state-industry snapshot should keep both sides of the join in the same sentence, cite USAspending.gov as the source, and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. The live hubs linked from this page can refresh the snapshot; this narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside the named state. Keep the obligation word on the headline dollar figure in every footnote.
