Support Activities for Coal Mining

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 213113 for Support Activities for Coal Mining encompasses a range of mechanical and industrial hardware components critical to maintenance and logistics operations. The solicitations and awards under this classification primarily focus on precision engineering components such as bearings, shafts, pins, keys, clamps, and other mechanical power transmission equipment. These items are predominantly used in military and defense applications, supporting aviation, maritime, land vehicle, and equipment maintenance programs across various Department of Defense (DoD) platforms.

The federal contract awards under this NAICS code demonstrate a consistent pattern of firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders, typically ranging from $1,000 to $60,000, with contract durations spanning 3-12 months. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime are the primary funding agencies, with frequent awards to small businesses, including woman-owned, veteran-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned enterprises. Common contractors include entities like Jamaica Bearings Co., Mechatronics Inc., Specialty Components & Fasteners, and Brandamar Inc. Most awards are not set aside, though some are designated for total small business or specific small business categories. Performance locations are typically distributed across various DoD distribution centers in the continental United States.

The federal contract opportunities under this NAICS code reflect a structured procurement approach for specialized mechanical components. Solicitations are primarily Request for Quote (RFQ) format, with quantities ranging from 2 to 2,852 units. The Defense Logistics Agency continues to be the primary soliciting agency, with opportunities set aside for total small businesses or open to all responsible sources. Delivery locations include various DLA distribution centers and specific military facilities like the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. Most opportunities involve precision engineering components such as bearings, shafts, keys, and bushings, with electronic quote submissions required and delivery timelines typically between 39 and 224 days after order placement.
