FAQ

What work fits NAICS 423830?
  • Stocking and reselling industrial pumps, electric motors, and replacement parts with inventory reporting and lead-time commitments to sustain customer production equipment.
  • Kitting and packaging OEM spare parts into serialized kits for field teams, including labeling, packing lists, and single-shipment delivery to customer locations.
  • Managed order fulfillment with warehousing, cross-docking, freight coordination, and delivery tracking for bulky industrial equipment and parts shipments.
  • Authorized distributor warranty parts distribution and warranty claim processing, including replacement shipments, return logistics, and warranty pass-through to the OEM.
When is NAICS 423830 a weak fit?
  • Equipment installation and on-site commissioning contracts: missing installation, alignment, and start-up services because wholesalers supply hardware but do not perform installation work.
  • Industrial machinery fabrication or OEM manufacturing: missing manufacture of machinery components since wholesalers procure and resell products rather than produce primary equipment.
  • Long-term equipment rental, leasing, or operational service contracts: missing equipment operation, rental management, or long-term operational responsibilities that are separate from resale and distribution.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 423830?
  • Solicitation requires vendor-maintained stocked inventory, SKU lists, lead times, and routine inventory or fill-rate reporting as contractual deliverables.
  • Statement of work requests kitting, serial-number tracking, drop-shipment capabilities, and freight coordination with delivery tracking for machine components.
  • Evaluation criteria request distributor authorizations from OEMs, past performance on order fulfillment volumes, parts availability metrics, and warranty parts throughput records.
