FAQ

What work fits NAICS 485113?
  • Operate fixed-route urban or regional bus services including drivers, scheduling, fare collection, and daily route performance reporting.

  • Deliver shuttle transit operations between facilities with vehicle operations, driver supervision, passenger manifests, and schedule coordination.
  • Manage a transit operations center responsible for driver training, route scheduling, incident response, and submission of monthly ridership, revenue, and on-time reports.
When is NAICS 485113 a weak fit?

  • Performance metrics specify on-time performance percentage, average passenger wait time, vehicle revenue miles, and monthly ridership and farebox reporting.
  • Statement of work lists labor categories for drivers, dispatchers, and transit supervisors with required background checks, drug testing, and training hours.
