NAICS 325920: Explosives Manufacturing — Federal Contracts

NAICS 325920 covers explosives manufacturing — one of the industries the federal government actively buys from. Below: who's buying, who's already winning, and how to surface opportunities in this code before the recompete.

What NAICS 325920 covers

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is the standard the federal government uses to classify the industry of every contractor and every procurement. NAICS 325920 identifies businesses primarily engaged in explosives manufacturing. When a contracting officer publishes a solicitation on SAM.gov, they tag it with the NAICS code that best matches the work — which is why getting your NAICS portfolio right inside SAM is the single most important step for showing up in agency searches.
