FAQ
What work fits NAICS 624221?
- Operate an emergency overnight shelter providing cots or beds, intake triage, 24/7 staffing, sanitation services, and daily occupancy reporting to the contracting authority.
- Manage a family shelter with separate sleeping units, meal service, basic hygiene facilities, and referral coordination to external housing or social service providers.
- Establish and operate a temporary disaster shelter offering short-term lodging, security, basic medical triage, and rapid capacity expansion during declared emergency periods.
- Provide short-term transitional shelter operations for individuals exiting crisis situations with documented short-term referrals, discharge planning, and client file maintenance.
When is NAICS 624221 a weak fit?
- Long-term permanent supportive housing: programs offering ongoing tenancy, lease agreements, and sustained case management fall outside short-term emergency shelter operations.
- Supply of shelter structures or equipment only: procurement of tents, cots, or bedding without facility operation and management lacks the operational shelter service element.
- Mass feeding or meal-only contracts without provision of lodging and shelter management: food-service-only deliveries do not include shelter intake, bed management, or occupancy reporting.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 624221?
- Statement of work requests operation of a facility for a specified number of beds with 24/7 staffing, intake/triage procedures, daily occupancy logs, and sanitation standards.
- Performance requirements include emergency surge capacity timelines, client intake and discharge documentation, incident reporting, and compliance with local health and safety codes.
- Evaluation criteria reference prior experience operating shelters of similar bed capacity, background-checked staff, and protocols for client privacy, security, and referral tracking.
