Federal spend by industry (NAICS)
What the federal government buys, by industry code
One canonical profile per NAICS industry code: how much the federal government has obligated under it, the contractors who win the work, and the agencies that buy it — stated as exact dated facts, sourced and reproducible, no derived score or label.
Fonteum publishes a federal-contracting profile for 226 NAICS industry codes with real award activity on file — each ranking the contractors and agencies behind the spending, with the set-aside mix and the fiscal-year trend. Every figure is an exact USASpending.gov fact and points back to the federal source. Coverage grows as the federal award-archive backfill loads.
