When is NAICS 423710 a weak fit?
  • Original equipment manufacturers: entities that produce or fabricate hardware components where primary activity is manufacturing rather than wholesale purchasing, stocking, and resale.
  • Retail hardware stores selling direct to consumers at point-of-sale without volume B2B wholesale operations, contracted delivery schedules, or government purchase order fulfillment.

What solicitation language points to NAICS 423710?
  • Solicitation contains line items specifying unit pricing for off-the-shelf part numbers, scheduled deliveries from vendor stock, and purchase order release instructions.
  • Request for pricing includes tiered quantity breaks, minimum stock levels for contract performance, and requirements for labeled hardware kits.
  • Performance requirements ask for inventory reporting, electronic invoicing tied to order releases, and a warranty and returns process with supplier pass-through.
