FAQ

What work fits NAICS 541380?
  • Environmental sample analysis for water, soil, and air with chain-of-custody documentation and analytical reporting for compliance purposes.
  • Materials testing and characterization for construction materials, composites, and metals providing test certificates and technical reports.
  • Chemical residue, contaminant screening, and toxicology assays supporting site assessments or remediation decisions.
  • Method validation, inter-laboratory proficiency testing, and generation of validated procedures for analytical methods used in project acceptance.
When is NAICS 541380 a weak fit?
  • Field sampling without laboratory analysis: scope missing laboratory analysis, analytical reporting, and chain-of-custody processing that define testing lab services.
  • Equipment calibration and repair services: missing analytical testing deliverables, test reports, and method validation responsibilities provided by labs.
  • Manufacture of testing kits or reagents: missing laboratory testing services and analytical reporting since scope is production-focused rather than analytical service delivery.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 541380?
  • Statement of work requires accredited laboratory results or certificates of analysis with documented chain-of-custody and referenced test methods.
  • Deliverables include raw data files, method validation reports, detection limits, and signed analytical reports from qualified personnel.
  • Labor categories list laboratory analyst, chemist, microbiologist, and lab manager with credentials and demonstrated experience in accredited testing environments.
