Introduction to NAICS The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is the standard used by Federal
                        statistical
                        agencies in classifying business establishments for the purpose of collecting, analyzing, and
                        publishing
                        statistical data related to the U.S. business economy. NAICS was developed under the auspices of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and adopted
                        in 1997
                        to replace the Standard Industrial
                            Classification
                            (SIC) system. It was developed jointly by the U.S.
                            Economic Classification
                            Policy
                            Committee (ECPC), Statistics Canada, and Mexico's Instituto
                            Nacional de
                            Estadistica y Geografia, to allow for
                        a high
                        level of
                        comparability in business
                        statistics among the North American countries. This official U.S. Government Web site provides the latest information on plans for NAICS
                        revisions, as
                        well as access to various NAICS reference files and tools. Additional information on the
                        background and
                        development of NAICS is available in the
                        History
                        section of this Web site.
