FAQ

What work fits NAICS 336510?
  • Manufacture new freight railcars such as boxcars or hoppers built to dimensional drawings, equipped with trucks, couplers, and factory-installed brake rigging.
  • Produce passenger railcars with factory-installed seating, HVAC, interior finishes, door systems, and acceptance testing per performance requirements.
  • Build locomotives or locomotive shells assembled with prime mover or traction components, control cabinets, and factory run-in and brake certification tests.
  • Fabricate light rail and transit vehicles including bogies, traction equipment interfaces, wiring harnesses, and vehicle-level safety and performance testing.
When is NAICS 336510 a weak fit?
  • Railcar repair and overhaul shops: rebuilding, refurbishment, or in-service component replacement rather than new fabrication and final assembly of rolling stock.
  • Component-only suppliers: manufacturers supplying brake assemblies, couplers, or trucks without responsibility for vehicle-level assembly and integration.
  • Track construction and civil works: installation of track, switches, signals, and related infrastructure where no vehicle fabrication or assembly occurs.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 336510?
  • Specification requires unit-level acceptance tests such as brake performance certification, dynamic stability checks, and factory run-in hours with signed test reports.
  • RFP requests delivery of fully assembled vehicles with spare parts kits, technical and maintenance manuals, and vehicle weight and balance documentation.
  • Drawings and bill of materials call for vehicle-level integration, bogie assembly, supplier submittal approvals, and factory inspection acceptance criteria.
