Electronic Computers Manufacturing (NAICS 334111) covers companies that design and manufacture computer hardware, including servers, workstations, ruggedized systems, and specialized computing equipment. If your company manufactures computer systems for federal agencies, 334111 is your primary code.
What Businesses Fall Under This Code
334111 includes computer manufacturers, system integrators who manufacture custom hardware, ruggedized computer manufacturers, and specialized computing hardware providers. This applies to companies manufacturing complete computers or major computer subsystems.
SBA Size Standard and What It Means
The SBA size standard for 334111 is $1.5 billion in annual revenue—significantly higher than IT services due to the capital-intensive nature of hardware manufacturing. Few small businesses qualify under this code. However, small manufacturers of specialized computing equipment may use a different size standard—check SAM.gov for your specific product category.
Federal Spending in This Category
Federal computer hardware spending exceeds $5 billion annually. DoD, DHS, and government agencies procure computers, ruggedized systems, specialized computing equipment, and integrated systems regularly.
Top Agencies Buying in This Code
The Department of Defense, Homeland Security, Veterans Affairs, and the Intelligence Community are major hardware purchasers. DoD in particular procures ruggedized systems, specialized computing equipment, and integrated hardware/software solutions.
Tips for Tech Companies Using This Code
If you manufacture specialized computing equipment, ruggedized systems, or custom hardware for federal agencies, use 334111. Show compliance with military standards, ruggedization requirements, and federal specifications. Demonstrate manufacturing capability and quality control processes meeting government standards.
Pro Tip: Hardware manufacturing requires significant capital and expertise. This code is primarily for established manufacturers. If you're a software or IT services company developing integrated hardware/software solutions, you may use this as a secondary code while primarily registering under IT services codes.
