    4. Assertions: Add NAICS/PSC codes (e.g., for concrete: NAICS 238110 for poured foundations), size metrics (receipts, employees), EDI (optional), and disaster response info.
    5. Representations and Certifications (Reps & Certs): Answer FAR/DFARS questions on business status, compliance, and more. Most are yes/no; provide details where needed.
    6. Architect-Engineer Response (if applicable): For engineering-related NAICS; otherwise, mark not applicable.

    Comprehensive Guide to NAICS Codes for Construction: Concrete Contractors Edition 2026 | Volume Concrete Internal Resource DECLASSIFIED

    Comprehensive Interactive Guide to NAICS Codes for Construction: Focus on Concrete Industry
    DECLASSIFIED

    TOP SECRET // INTERNAL USE ONLY Comprehensive Interactive Guide to NAICS Codes for Construction: Focus on Concrete Industry

    Volume Concrete Team – Declassified for Internal Training Purposes Only! This redacted document provides an in-depth, interactive guide to NAICS codes relevant to our concrete supply and construction services. Use it to optimize lead generation, SAM.gov registrations, and bidding strategies. Password-protected on WordPress for team access only. Updated January 2026 based on latest federal guidelines.

    Introduction to NAICS Codes

    NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) codes classify businesses for statistical and contracting purposes. Developed in 1997 by the US, Mexico, and Canada, they replaced the SIC system. Sector 23 – Construction includes over 1.5 million businesses (2022 data). For Volume Concrete, focus on codes for pouring, foundations, paving, and related trades. These codes are essential for government contracts, size standards, and market analysis.

    Key Benefits: Register on SAM.gov, filter bids on OregonBuys, qualify for small business set-asides (e.g., revenue under $19M for specialty trades).

    How to Use NAICS Codes in Bidding (Especially in Oregon & Portland)

    In Oregon, add NAICS to your OregonBuys profile for targeted alerts. ODOT uses them for highway projects. Federally, SAM.gov requires NAICS for registration and bid searches. Cross-reference with PSC (Product Service Codes) for detailed services.

    • OregonBuys Steps: Register with Tax ID, select NAICS (e.g., 238110), enable daily emails.
    • Federal Tips: Multiple NAICS allowed; primary determines size. Appeal wrong NAICS via SBA.
    • Volume Concrete Tip: Use 238110 as primary for poured concrete; add 237310 for highway work.

    Integrating NAICS with SAM.gov: A Declassified Guide for Contractors

    SAM.gov is the federal hub for contractor registration. NAICS codes are required in entity registration to classify your business, determine size standards, and match opportunities. Without them, you can’t bid on federal contracts. For construction, select codes matching your services to access set-asides.

    Steps to Add/Update NAICS in SAM.gov

    1. Log in to SAM.gov with your account (register if new via entity-information page).
    2. Navigate to ‘Entity Registration’ > ‘Core Data’ section.
    3. Input NAICS codes (lookup at census.gov/naics); add multiple if applicable.
    4. Select primary NAICS for size determination (e.g., $19M revenue limit for 238110).
    5. Provide size metrics: annual receipts, employees (worldwide and by location).
    6. Submit and validate; CAGE code assigned automatically.

    Importance: Agencies use NAICS to set aside contracts (e.g., small business). Wrong code? Challenge via SBA OHA appeals. For concrete contractors, ensure codes align with PSC for detailed bids.

    Tips for Construction Contractors: Include socio-economic categories (e.g., veteran-owned) for more opportunities. Update annually or when services change. Use saved searches in SAM for NAICS-filtered alerts.

    Related Codes: Product Service Codes (PSC) for Federal Contracts

    PSC complement NAICS by classifying specific products/services. Lookup at acquisition.gov/psc-manual. For concrete: Y1JZ (Construction of Miscellaneous Buildings), Z2JZ (Repair/Alteration of Miscellaneous Buildings). Add to SAM for precise bid matching.
