FAQ

What work fits NAICS 322110?
  • Operate a kraft pulp mill producing market pulp using continuous digesters, washing, bleaching, and drying to meet specified pulp property targets.
  • Manage chemical recovery and recausticizing operations, including recovery boilers and lime cycle control, to meet process efficiency and environmental permit limits.
  • Provide mill-scale process control, laboratory testing, and pulp quality assurance including freeness, kappa number, tensile strength, and brightness testing.
  • Run reclaimed fiber pulping and deinking lines to produce pulp from recycled paper feedstock while meeting contamination and yield thresholds specified in the contract.
When is NAICS 322110 a weak fit?
  • Paper and paperboard converting (3221) when the contract focuses on converting pulp into finished paper or board products rather than primary pulping and fiber production.
  • Timber harvesting and wood chipping (113310) when the scope covers raw timber harvesting and chip production without industrial pulping or chemical processing at a mill.
  • Pulp mill engineering or design consulting (541330) when the work is engineering, design, or project planning rather than operating pulping, chemical recovery, and production processes.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 322110?
  • SOW specifies continuous digester operation, chemical recovery boiler staffing, and shift schedules with daily production tonnage and pulp property targets.
  • Performance requirements include kappa number ranges, pulp brightness and freeness ratings, percent yield per oven-dry ton, and allowable contaminant levels.
  • Deliverables list mill mass balance reports, daily production logs, laboratory test reports, and environmental compliance monitoring records.
