MORE INFORMATION ON THE NEW NAICS STRUCTURE
First, let me give a brief introduction for those unfamiliar with the basic system.
The New Numbering System
NAICS industries are identified by a 6-digit code, in contrast to the 4-digit SIC code.
The longer code accommodates the larger number of sectors and allows more flexibility in
designating subsectors. It also provides for additional detail not necessarily appropriate
for all three NAICS countries. The international NAICS agreement fixes only the first five
digits of the code. The sixth digit, where used, identifies subdivisions of NAICS
industries that accommodate user needs in individual countries. Thus, 6-digit U.S. codes
may differ from counterparts in Canada or Mexico, but at the 5-digit level they are
standardized.
The New Hierarchical Structure
- XX Industry Sector (the 20 sectors from above)
- XXX Industry Subsector
- XXXX Industry Group
- XXXXX Industry
- XXXXXX U.S., Canadian, or Mexican National specific Industry
NAICS groups the economy into 20 broad sectors, up from the 10 divisions of the SIC
system. The following are the 20 broad sectors:

- 11 Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting
- 21 Mining

Implementing NAICS
-------------------
Economic Census
The first major statistical program in the U.S. statistical system to
implement NAICS is the Census Bureau's 1997 Economic Census. As with past
SIC revisions, the economic census forms for 1997 were mailed based on
the SIC code retained in the Census Bureau's Standard Statistical
Establishment List. The forms received by the companies included 1987 SIC
codes, but also included requests for the additional information needed
by the Census Bureau to assign an SIC and a NAICS code to the business
establishment. This procedure allows Census to provide to the data user
information on both an SIC and NAICS basis so that a "bridge" between the
two systems is available for analysts. Following is an explanation of the
information to be published in the Economic Census and the dates for
release:
Advance Report (presents information at the 1st quarter 1999
NAICS 3- and 4-digit level for all sectors
covered by the census. Data also will be
shown on an SIC basis at the 2- and 3-digit
level for all sectors).
Industry, Geographic, and Subject reports beginning 2nd quarter 1999
for all sectors (NAICS only)
Comparative Statistics (SIC only) - 1st quarter 2000
presents 4-digit SIC data for all
sectors
Bridge Between NAICS and SIC 1st quarter 2000
(tables show each 4-digit SIC and its
6-digit NAICS components; and each
6-digit NAICS industry and its 4-digit
SIC components)
Nonemployer Statistics (NAICS only) - 3rd quarter 2000
presents information on 14 million
businesses with no paid employees

THIS MONTHS QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
In this section we will share some of the common questions we get on our web site along
with our response.
Q. - How do I find a list of Companies for the state of South Carolina (or any state)
under a certain SIC or NAICS online??
A. - There are several services on-line, most pretty expensive. The newest is a service
run by System Resources, Inc. at:
http://www.naics.net
They are creating an on-line search system based on NAICS. I'm not sure of their
current status, but you can try them.
For a current solution on CD-ROM, we offer the Business Mailing Lists CD-ROM containing
over 10 million listings. Using this product you can list companies with a specific SIC
code or even Yellow Page Heading keywords and then further limit it to a specific state,
city, area code, etc.
You can get more details and order it on-line at:
http://www2.viaweb.com/naics/busmaillis.html
Q. - How can I locate all High Tech companies (Electronics, Semiconductor, and
Telecommunication) both private and public with revenues greater than 350 million.
A. - Locating high tech companies is easily accomplished with either the Business
Mailing Lists or Business USA Directory. However, since you need to see only those with a
minimum annual revenue, you will need to use the Business USA Directory.
While they both have over 10 million listings, the Business Mailing Lists includes only
basic information on name, address, phone, etc.
The Business USA Directory, on the other hand, includes estimated annual revenues,
number of employee's, key contact names, and other valuable company information.
