Insight
During the last full year, SSA obligated 1.62 billion across 3,539 awards, with obligations concentrated in IT and communications-related NAICS codes. NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) alone accounted for 586.55 million across 311 awards, or roughly 36% of total obligated, making it the dominant category.

Insight
In the last full year, the Social Security Administration obligated $1.62 billion across 3,539 awards, for an average award value of about $457,276. Because the annual view includes a single year, no year-over-year trend can be assessed in this window. The obligation total reflects a moderately distributed award base rather than reliance on a small number of exceptionally large awards.
