Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing

Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing (NAICS 334412) covers companies manufacturing printed circuit boards (PCBs) and circuit board assemblies. These are essential components in all electronic systems. Federal contractors in defense, aerospace, and specialized systems rely on PCB manufacturers.

What Businesses Fall Under This Code

334412 includes PCB manufacturers, circuit board assembly companies, and specialized electronics manufacturers. This includes companies providing prototype boards, high-reliability boards, military-specification boards, and specialized circuit assemblies.

SBA Size Standard and What It Means

Size standards for 334412 vary. Generally $1.5 billion in annual revenue for electronics manufacturing, though circuit board assembly may have different standards. Check SAM.gov for your specific service.

Federal Spending in This Category

Federal PCB and circuit board spending is significant, driven by DoD, aerospace, and intelligence systems requiring high-reliability boards. Military and aerospace specifications require specialized manufacturing capabilities.

Top Agencies Buying in This Code

Department of Defense, NASA, National Reconnaissance Office, National Security Agency, and other agencies procure high-reliability circuit boards for military and intelligence systems. Most sales are to prime contractors rather than directly to government.

Tips for Tech Companies Using This Code

Use 334412 if you manufacture circuit boards or assemblies. Pursue MIL-SPEC certifications and AS9100 (aerospace) certifications if targeting government contracts. Show compliance with military standards and quality management systems required for government work.

Pro Tip: PCB manufacturing requires significant capital investment and specialized certifications (MIL-SPEC, AS9100). If you're a small PCB manufacturer, focus on niche specializations (high-reliability, high-frequency, specialized assembly) rather than competing on price with large manufacturers.
