NAICS 561612: Security Guards and Patrol Services — Federal Contracts

NAICS 561612 covers security guards and patrol services — 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 561612 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 561612 identifies businesses primarily engaged in security guards and patrol services. 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.
