What does NAICS 423610 cover for federal electrical equipment procurement?
NAICS 423610 (Electrical Apparatus and Equipment, Wiring Supplies, and Related Equipment Merchant Wholesalers) covers wholesale distribution of electrical apparatus — transformers, switchgear, motors, motor controls, circuit protection, and electrical hardware for industrial and facility use. For federal procurement the code is the primary lane for nonmanufacturer-rule small-business reseller bids on DLA electrical commodity buys and federal-facility electrical equipment buys. SBA size standard is 200 employees.
JTJRE Corp is SAM-registered for NAICS 423610 (confirmed 2026-05-25) with the size standard trivially met. The capability sits alongside JTJRE's NAICS 423830 (industrial machinery) and 423840 (industrial supplies) registrations — together forming a coordinated commodity-reseller posture for DLA Land & Maritime and federal-facility maintenance procurements.
Which federal buyers use NAICS 423610 most?
DLA Land & Maritime is the dominant buyer under NAICS 423610, with continuous electrical commodity buys serving Navy and Marine Corps shore installations, ship maintenance, and depot operations. GSA federal facility maintenance programs are the second-largest buyer, sourcing transformers, switchgear, and electrical infrastructure for federal buildings nationwide. DoD installation public works offices buy individual transformer and switchgear replacements under simplified acquisitions.
| Buyer | Use case | Typical PSC | Set-aside fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| DLA Land & Maritime | Electrical commodity buys (transformers, switches, motors) | 6110, 6125, 6150 | Open / SB common |
| GSA federal facility | Building electrical infrastructure | 6110, 5935 | Schedule task order |
| DoD installation public works | Transformer / switchgear replacements | 6120, 6125 | Often SB |
| Federal data center operators | Electrical infrastructure modernization | 6130, 6150 | Multiple |
How do federal electrical equipment buys structure pricing and delivery?
Federal electrical equipment buys typically structure as fixed-price simplified acquisitions under FAR Part 13 (under $250K) or commercial-item contracts under FAR Part 12 (above $250K). Pricing is firm-fixed-price with delivery FOB destination. Common SDVOSB set-aside thresholds apply per VAAR Part 819 for VA buys and per FAR 19.502-2 for civilian and DoD set-asides. Delivery windows range from 30 days for in-stock items to 90-180 days for manufacturer-built-to-order transformers.
What about Davis-Bacon and prevailing wage compliance?
Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage compliance applies to federal construction contracts but not typically to commercial-item supply contracts under FAR Part 12. JTJRE's reseller scope under NAICS 423610 is supply-only — manufacturer-direct equipment delivered to the federal facility — and does not include installation labor that would trigger Davis-Bacon requirements. When installation is in-scope, it is handled by the manufacturer's certified installer network under a separate service agreement.
