FAQ

What work fits NAICS 333242?
  • Procurement of wafer etch systems delivered with OEM process qualification, tool recipes, and factory acceptance testing for integration into fab production lines.
  • Purchase and delivery of chemical or physical vapor deposition tools with interface specifications, factory performance test records, and cleanroom compatibility documentation.
  • Supply of automated wafer-handling robots and end-effectors with integration, motion control tuning, and failure-mode testing for high-volume wafer flow.
  • Provision of metrology and inspection equipment such as critical-dimension metrology, defect inspection systems, and inline process control instruments with calibration certificates.
When is NAICS 333242 a weak fit?
  • General laboratory equipment procurement: acquisition of general-purpose lab instruments lacks the precision process-tool and wafer-handling hardware scope of this NAICS.
  • Semiconductor fabrication services: operating a foundry to process customer wafers focuses on production operations rather than manufacturing capital equipment.
  • Electronic test and measurement procurement for packaged devices: buying device-level test handlers and testers for packaged chips is outside this NAICS, which covers wafer-fabrication machinery.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 333242?
  • Tool performance metrics specified in the solicitation such as throughput in wafers per hour, process repeatability, and mean time between failures.
  • Utility and facility interface requirements calling out cleanroom class, vibration isolation, chilled water, purified gas hookups, and factory acceptance qualification.
  • Line items for OEM spare-parts kits, preventive maintenance agreements, software licenses tied to equipment controllers, and vendor factory acceptance testing procedures.
