Wired carriers tagged to Colorado

Wired Telecommunications Carriers as NAICS 517110, Colorado as place of performance: 845 records summing to $229,531,734.79. A 517110 award coded outside CO is out. An award in Colorado tagged to a different NAICS is out even if the work sounds related. Colorado (CO) excludes Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Arizona. A Utah-coded carrier award is UT.

Eight hundred forty-five awards against $229,531,734.79 is a mid-thick carrier file. Recurring telecom actions add rows without each row being a new network. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 845 as 845 unique circuit-miles, unique carriers, or named networks. Colorado federal spending is the all-industry state hub. NAICS 517110 is the industry book without a CO filter. Colorado industries lists other Colorado industry cells. All spending ties indexes other joins.

Do not treat 845 as a census of Colorado telecom companies. Unique recipients are unpublished. Correlation is not causation: Colorado did not “cause” $229,531,734.79 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 517110 × CO only.

Circuit counts are unpublished

$229,531,734.79 does not measure circuit-miles, unique carriers, or named networks. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with NAICS 517110 and a CO place-of-performance tag. Wired telecommunications carriers (517110) are not computing-infrastructure and data-processing services (518210).

Do not treat 845 awards as a census of circuit-miles, unique carriers, or named networks. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Colorado federal spending or NAICS 517110 matched $229,531,734.79 and 845, the join would be pointless. Keep both keys on. Utah, New Mexico, and Wyoming 517110 joins are other pairs, not addends.

Colorado is not a Front Range fiber map

Place of performance CO is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Colorado (CO) excludes Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Arizona. A Utah-coded carrier award is UT. Recipient headquarters can differ from that state tag.

Do not treat 845 as a census of Colorado telecom companies. Unique recipients are unpublished. This packet does not split $229,531,734.79 by city, county, or named facility. 845 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Carrier awards still mean obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $229,531,734.79 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Colorado confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Colorado’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 845-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $229,531,734.79. Eight hundred forty-five awards is the row count as USAspending grouped it, not a count of circuit-miles, unique carriers, or named networks.
