## ORGANIZATION

-  Census of Manufactures
-  Annual Survey of Manufactures
-  Current Industrial Reports

**MANUFACTURING SECTOR**

**Notes:**
As I understand it this is where we differ significantly from Services regarding structure.  Analysts in Services work within a specific program area like the Census or in Currents.
In general Analysts within the Manufacturing Branches of MCD are working a set of industries in each of these surveys.  This allows for industry specialization and recons are done by the same analyst against the CIR’s

## ORGANIZATION

- Forms by type in Census Years
-   ASM Form (MA-10000)
-   Long Form
-   Short Form
-   Mailout to 250,000 estabs.

**MANUFACTURING SECTOR**

**Notes:**
For continuity purposes.  Companies that are in the ASM (generally large or L-companies) will receive a MA-10000 in a Census Year.  This will contain all the details of a Economic Census form Products/materials but will have the look and feel of a MA 10000.
