Insight
Over the last 10 years, FEMA obligated $27.32 billion across 103,861 awards, with spending concentrated in a small set of service-heavy NAICS codes. The top two categories, 541611 Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services and 541330 Engineering Services, account for $6.49 billion combined, indicating significant reliance on consulting and technical support. Information technology and facilities-related work also ranks prominently, including 541519 Other Computer Related Services, 561210 Facilities Support Services, 541511 Custom Computer Programming Services, and 541512 Computer Systems Design Services. Lower-volume but high-dollar obligations in 621910 Ambulance Services and 321991 Manufactured Home Manufacturing suggest FEMA’s spend is diversified across emergency response and disaster recovery-related requirements.
