Yes, the B&W # BWRVK3500 does fit your 2016 Chevy 3500HD even though it's a standard bed. Generally a standard bed uses a sliding hitch but if for one reason or another you don't need the extra turning clearance then a fixed hitch works just fine.
You do need the underbed Turnoverball, part # BWGNRK1016-5W, if you don't already have it. Also, you'll want to add a wiring connector in your truck's bed with # 41157.
