FAQ

What work fits NAICS 236115?
  • Turnkey construction of single-family housing units to deliver move-in ready dwellings on government-held parcels.
  • Construction of replacement family housing units to vacate and demolish legacy units as specified in the statement of work.
  • New detached unit construction for workforce housing tied to a government campus master plan and defined parcel allocations.
  • Construction of single-family units that include installation of utility connections and final certification of habitability.
When is NAICS 236115 a weak fit?
  • Multifamily housing construction where the project delivers multiunit buildings and shared vertical services rather than individual detached or row units, so the missing element is single-family unit delivery.
  • Residential renovation or repair contracts focused on alteration, retrofit, or incremental upgrades where no new dwelling unit is constructed, removing the new-build requirement.
  • For-sale home development where the primary business model is market sale and speculative lot development rather than delivery of occupancy-ready units per a purchaser-directed contract.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 236115?
  • Line items specify unit-level deliverables such as finished floor plans, complete interior finishes, utility hookups, and certificate of occupancy or equivalent acceptance.
  • Evaluation criteria request prior contracts for constructing single-family detached or row housing with project photos, final punchlist records, and occupancy acceptance documentation.
  • Performance requirements include site-specific lot grading, installation of on-site utilities to unit meters, serial-numbered manufactured component installation, and final occupancy-ready inspections.
