Collection Agencies
NAICS 561440 · Federal Contracts & Awards
Collection Agencies obligated $2,543,564,072.01 in FY2024 according to USAspending.gov (NAICS 561440). That yearlyTrend cell is 94.3% of $2,697,729,595.45. It is not a debtor census, a named-agency roster, or an account-level file. 121 is the industry extract's award-record count, not a FY2024-only file.
Key figures
- USAspending records $2,543,564,072.01 in Collection Agencies FY2024 obligations (NAICS 561440).
- That cell is 94.3% of the industry's $2,697,729,595.45 extract-wide total.
- 121 is the industry extract award-record count, not a FY2024 census of accounts, debtors, or named collection agencies.
- Obligations are not outlays; FEC donations do not fund this total.
What 561440 × FY2024 records
The relationship is mechanical: one NAICS code, one fiscal year, one obligation sum. $2,543,564,072.01 is that sum for Collection Agencies in 2024. Broader books ($2,697,729,595.45; the FY2024 hub) remain on their own pages. Outlays are not this field.
Nothing in the facts supports reading $2,543,564,072.01 as a count of accounts, dollars recovered, or named collection firms. Named contractors are absent. Other Accounting Services FY2024 (541219) on this slice is a professional-services NAICS, not 561440.
Collection-agency dollars inside FY2024
94.3% locates FY2024 inside NAICS 561440's $2,697,729,595.45 extract. The remainder is other years. Parent without the year: /industries/561440/.
Parent without the NAICS: /fiscal-years/2024/. $2,543,564,072.01 is not all FY2024 federal obligations. Commitments are not Treasury outlays. Later USAspending.gov ingests can still restate the FY2024 cell; the join keys stay the same.

Questions
- How much did Collection Agencies obligate in FY2024?
- USAspending.gov records $2,543,564,072.01 in Collection Agencies obligations for fiscal year 2024 under NAICS 561440. That amount is a yearlyTrend obligation total, not an outlay and not the industry's $2,697,729,595.45 extract-wide sum.
- Is $2,543,564,072.01 the entire 561440 USAspending total?
- No. NAICS 561440's extract-wide total is $2,697,729,595.45. FY2024 is 94.3% of that book. Other fiscal-year rows for the same code are separate cells. Do not add the parent hub into this join. Obligations of $2,543,564,072.01 are not outlays.
- Do 121 awards equal 121 collection agencies in FY2024?
- No. 121 is the Collection Agencies award-record count in this extract, not a FY2024-only census of accounts, debtors, or named collection agencies. The packet does not split those records by fiscal year or name contractors. USAspending.gov remains the source.
- Do FEC filings explain Collection Agencies obligations in FY2024?
- No. FEC filings do not explain $2,543,564,072.01. The source is USAspending.gov. Obligations are not outlays, and donations do not fund NAICS 561440 in FY2024. USAspending.gov remains the source for NAICS 561440 in FY2024. The pair is NAICS 561440 plus FY2024.
