FAQ

What work fits NAICS 488999?
  • Onsite cargo handling and container marshalling at logistics hubs with lift equipment, load sequencing, and chain-of-custody documentation.
  • Traffic management services including routing, staging area control, and driver dispatching to maintain throughput windows.
  • Support for passenger movement operations such as platform marshalling, queue management, and mobility assistance coordination during high-traffic events.
  • Equipment staging, operator provision, and labor for vehicle or container repositioning and short-term storage in support of transportation operations.
When is NAICS 488999 a weak fit?
  • Common carrier freight services: contracts for transportation of goods under carrier liability focus on carriage and delivery rather than facility-based handling or support services.
  • Infrastructure construction or maintenance: contracts for building or repairing transport facilities involve construction trades, not operational support activities covered here.
  • Logistics management and freight forwarding: contracts that include international freight consolidation, customs brokerage, and long-haul carrier selection are supply-chain management roles distinct from on-site support.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 488999?
  • Statement of work specifying labor categories for handlers, marshallers, traffic controllers, and equipment operators with shift and coverage requirements.
  • Performance measures listing throughput targets, loading/unloading cycle times, damage rates, and chain-of-custody procedures.
  • Requirements for contractor-provided material handling equipment, operator certifications, site access procedures, and coordination meetings with facility operators.
