What NAICS 541618 covers
Management consulting services not elsewhere classified, including telecom and utilities. Catch-all for specialized consulting.
Regular federal spend, often concentrated in specific agencies or end-uses.
Size standard & small business eligibility
The SBA size standard is revenue-based. To qualify as a small business under this NAICS code, your 5-year average annual receipts must stay under the threshold below. Revenue is averaged across your most recent 5 completed fiscal years.
Threshold: Revenue: $19m avg annual receipts.
If you're under this threshold, you qualify as a small business for federal procurement under this NAICS — which unlocks set-aside opportunities (8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, and others). Not sure which set-asides you qualify for?
