3 Letter from the Associate Administrator The purpose of this guide is to provide a window into the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes that have received the most contract dollars at each NASA Center during the previous fiscal year. Please keep in mind that the codes shown here represent only funds that are currently being obligated to contracts, whether these contracts are new or are in subsequent funding years. There is no guarantee that the Centers will be issuing solicitations on contracts linked to these codes in the upcoming year. Some of the NAICS codes listed herein are associated with contracts awarded prior to 2007; in addition, some NAICS codes were revised in 2007 and are no longer valid. For further information, please visit the NASA Synopses Search Page at syn_search.cgi, where you can tailor a database search in accordance with your company s capabilities. Glenn A. Delgado Associate Administrator NASA Office of Small Business Programs NASA Centers Small Business Acquisition Guide 1
