NAICS 334418: Printed Circuit Assembly (Electronic Assembly) Manufacturing

This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in loading components onto printed circuit boards or who manufacture and ship loaded printed circuit boards. Also known as printed circuit assemblies, electronics assemblies, or modules, these products are printed circuit boards that have some or all of the semiconductor and electronic components inserted or mounted and are inputs to a wide variety of electronic systems and devices. Cross-References. Establishments primarily engaged in--Show more

NAICS 334418 – Printed Circuit Assembly (Electronic Assembly) Manufacturing covers the fabrication and assembly of printed circuit boards (PCBs) into functional electronic modules, including surface-mount technology (SMT) placement, reflow soldering, wave soldering, and final testing of electronic assemblies. This sector supports mission-critical defense, aerospace, and communications systems by producing high-reliability electronic subassemblies used in avionics, radar, signal processing, and command and control hardware.

NAICS 334418 – Printed Circuit Assembly (Electronic Assembly) Manufacturing covers the fabrication and assembly of printed circuit boards (PCBs) into functional electronic modules, including surface-mount technology (SMT) placement, reflow soldering, wave soldering, and final testing of electronic assemblies. This sector supports mission-critical defense, aerospace, and communications systems by producing high-reliability electronic subassemblies used in avionics, radar, signal processing, and command and control hardware. These assemblies often adhere to stringent military standards such as MIL-STD-810 and IPC-A-610, requiring controlled environments, traceable materials, and rigorous quality assurance protocols. In the federal contracting landscape, this NAICS code is foundational to the supply chain for electronic systems, bridging component manufacturing and system integration. Top contractors in this sector include EVERSTONE INDUSTRIES LLC and LINDE GAS & EQUIPMENT INC., both of which operate as specialized small businesses with deep expertise in low-volume, high-complexity electronic assembly for defense applications. These firms typically serve as tier-two suppliers to prime contractors, focusing on custom or ruggedized assemblies requiring precise process control and compliance with ITAR and DFARS regulations. The Department of Defense and DLA Land and Maritime are the primary procurement authorities, driving demand through modernization programs for tactical vehicles, unmanned systems, and legacy platform upgrades. These agencies prioritize domestic sourcing and supply chain resilience, favoring contractors with certified manufacturing facilities and secure supply chains. The competitive landscape is characterized by niche specialization, with opportunities concentrated among small businesses capable of meeting stringent military quality and security requirements. Demand is steady, fueled by sustained investment in electronic warfare, sensor integration, and next-generation communications, creating consistent procurement pathways for qualified assemblers with certified processes and defense-grade documentation capabilities.

Small Business Size Standard

The SBA threshold that decides who can bid NAICS 334418 work as a small business.

750 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.
