FAQ
What work fits NAICS 541360?
- Conduct seismic refraction and reflection surveys with acquisition, processing, and interpretation to define subsurface layering and velocity models for site characterization reports.
- Perform ground-penetrating radar and electromagnetic surveys to locate buried utilities, voids, and shallow subsurface anomalies with deliverable GIS points and annotated profiles.
- Acquire and process gravity and magnetic datasets to support regional mapping of subsurface structures, including gridded datasets, anomaly maps, and interpretive cross-sections.
- Produce integrated geospatial deliverables including georeferenced GIS layers, survey control networks, metadata packages, and a final technical report with data quality assessments and processing workflows described.
When is NAICS 541360 a weak fit?
- Environmental remediation sampling and laboratory analysis contracts where regulatory chain-of-custody soil and water chemistry testing is required; geophysical mapping does not provide chemical contaminant analysis or lab reports.
- Construction surveying and boundary staking contracts that require land title surveys, property legal description, and monument setting; geophysical surveys do not perform deed-based boundary certification.
- Geotechnical engineering contracts focused on borehole drilling, laboratory soil mechanics testing, and engineering recommendations for foundations; geophysical surveys do not replace borehole sampling and laboratory classification results.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 541360?
- Line items for field acquisition, equipment mobilization, and instrument-specific hours for seismic, GPR, magnetic, or gravity surveys with specified survey grid spacing and QC checks.
- Deliverables list requiring processed datasets, GIS-ready layers, velocity or depth-converted sections, metadata, and a final interpretive report with data processing descriptions.
- Evaluation criteria referencing demonstrated experience on similar geophysical methods, project staffing including instrument operators and data processors, and sample deliverable review during proposal evaluation.
