FAQ
What work fits NAICS 423510?
- Supply stocked coils, sheets, plates, and standard bar to maintenance shops with SKU-level unit pricing, lead-time guarantees, and electronic reorder and inventory reporting.
- Fulfill blanket purchase agreements for common metal profiles with scheduled palletized deliveries to multiple facility locations and carrier coordination.
- Provide kitting and packaging of pre-specified metal parts for field crews, with labeling by work order and serial or lot documentation for traceability.
- Manage warranty pass-through and deliver material test reports, certificates of compliance, and traceability documentation with each shipment.
When is NAICS 423510 a weak fit?
- Metal fabrication and machining shops: cutting, welding, machining, or forming metal into finished components performs manufacturing or fabrication and is not metal merchant wholesaling.
- Primary metal production or alloying: smelting, refining, or producing raw metal and alloys requires manufacturing facilities and is not distribution of stocked metal products.
- Metal recycling and scrap processing: buying scrap, melting, or reclaiming metal feedstock involves recycling operations, not merchant wholesaling of finished metal stock.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 423510?
- Line-item lists with manufacturer part numbers, required mill certificates or material test reports, and acceptance criteria tied to lot numbers.
- Delivery schedules specifying pallet quantities, lead times, carrier requirements, and receiving procedures at government warehouses.
- Contract terms requiring vendor-managed inventory, electronic inventory reporting, reorder thresholds, and KPI reporting on fill rates and lead times.
