NAICS 324110 – Petroleum Refineries encompasses the industrial processes involved in refining crude oil into usable petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, lubricants, and petrochemical feedstocks. This sector includes the operation of complex refining units like distillation columns, catalytic crackers, hydrocrackers, and reformers, as well as associated infrastructure for storage, blending, and quality control. In the federal contracting landscape, this NAICS code supports mission-critical fuel supply chains for military operations, fleet logistics, and infrastructure resilience programs. Government demand is driven by the need for reliable, compliant, and sustainably sourced fuels that meet Department of Defense specifications and environmental regulations. Top contractors in this sector include Virginia Transport LLC, BHPE LLC, BPM Services Inc, and Parkland USA Corporation. These firms range from specialized logistics and fuel distribution primes to energy services providers with expertise in bulk fuel handling, terminal operations, and refinery support services. The competitive landscape is dominated by mid-to-large-sized firms with established supply chain networks and federal compliance certifications, though niche small businesses also compete in specialized maintenance and technical support roles. Primary procuring agencies include the Department of Defense, Department of the Interior, and Department of Veterans Affairs. The DoD is the dominant buyer, leveraging these contracts to ensure fuel availability for tactical and strategic mobility across global operations. The Interior Department procures for park and facility fleet operations, while the VA supports medical center and campus energy needs. Demand is tied to operational readiness, fuel security, and infrastructure modernization initiatives. The market presents consistent opportunity density due to the enduring reliance on refined petroleum products for federal operations. Contractors with expertise in fuel quality assurance, logistics integration, and environmental compliance are well-positioned to compete. Trends indicate growing emphasis on supply chain resilience, fuel specification adherence, and contingency planning for remote or austere environments.

Small Business Size Standard

The SBA threshold that decides who can bid NAICS 324110 work as a small business.

1,500 employees
Applies to the whole industry code

The SBA cap for this NAICS (13 CFR 121.201). A business at or under it can self-certify as small for work in this code, which is what makes it eligible for a small-business set-aside. The cap is set per NAICS, so the same company can be small in one code and not in another.

13 CFR 121.201, effective January 1, 2026. The SBA revises the table roughly once a year.

Bidder counts reported on past federal awards in this NAICS (USAspending). An open opportunity has no bidders yet, so this is the historical norm for similar work, not a fact about this solicitation. Not all awards report bidder counts, and fewer bidders often means incumbent-held work rather than an easier win. Federal reporting of bidder counts fell from ~96% of awards (FY2016) to ~30% (FY2018 onward); the chart shows shares of reported awards, and washed-out stretches mark years with fewer than 30 of them.
