What this NAICS code covers
NAICS 541219 is the North American Industry Classification System code that federal contracting officers assign to other accounting services work. The code determines your small-business size standard for any solicitation issued under it, which in turn determines whether you can compete as a small business or pursue any of the socioeconomic set-aside programs.
