The other scientific and technical consulting services × Louisiana intersection

Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services (NAICS 541690) and Louisiana (LA) share one cell because awards carry both tags. $19,475,169.28 is that intersection. NAICS 541690 is other scientific and technical consulting. Arkansas's same-code overlay on this extract is a different state key. It is not a named Louisiana laboratory. /states/la/ is the state parent. /industries/541690/ is the industry parent. Use both names when quoting the cell.

60 is an award-action count, not 60 Louisiana scientific consultancies. Task orders and modifications can add rows without adding vendors. The join does not rank Louisiana as a winner or loser.

All Louisiana industries at /states/la/industries/ lists other codes in the same geography. All spending ties at /ties/ lists other pairs. Adding either parent into this join would double-count.

Industry side: NAICS 541690

USAspending labels NAICS 541690 as Other Scientific And Technical Consulting Services. That title is a catalog label. It is not a proof of outcomes described in ordinary speech. The industry is not environmental consulting (541620) and not Arkansas's 541690 cell. Packet facts on this side are the name, the number, $19,475,169.28, and 60 awards. No contractor names appear.

Idaho's environmental-consulting overlay on this extract is 541620, a different consulting six-digit. Mixing this cell with environmental consulting, management consulting, or industrial gas manufacturing leaves the packet. Award titles on /industries/541690/ show what a given line bought; this overlay does not reprint them.

State side: Louisiana place of performance

Place of performance LA is not a New Orleans, Baton Rouge, or Shreveport filter. Ordinary maps mention New Orleans, Baton Rouge, or Shreveport; the extract does not. Awards can list Louisiana while later work occurs elsewhere. The packet does not split counties or congressional districts.

The state hub at /states/la/ still includes every other NAICS in Louisiana; quoting $19,475,169.28 as all of Louisiana federal spending would be wrong.

60 is not 60 Louisiana scientific consultancies

60 is the award-record count for other scientific and technical consulting services in Louisiana. About $324,586 is $19,475,169.28 ÷ 60, a quotient of packet facts, not a typical invoice. Unique recipients are unpublished. 60 is not 60 Louisiana scientific consultancies.

An obligation is a legal commitment. $19,475,169.28 is that kind of sum. Outlays are unpublished. Keep the obligation word on every citation of this cell.

Keep FEC tables off this USAspending cell

Lobbying and contribution files do not pay other scientific and technical consulting services awards. A later ingest can restate $19,475,169.28 without renaming NAICS 541690 or LA. Confusing this join with environmental consulting, management consulting, or industrial gas manufacturing would be a different overlay. Correlation is not causation.
