NAICS Codes¶
NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) codes categorize business industries. This section allows you to customize which industry codes are available in your ecosystem.
Overview¶

NAICS codes are six-digit classifications used to identify business types and industries. By managing which codes are active and visible in your system, you can tailor the platform to your specific ecosystem and industry focus.
Available Filters & Settings¶
When managing NAICS codes, you can use the following controls:
| Filter/Setting | Description | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Search Box | Search by code number or description | Find specific industries quickly (e.g., "336111" or "automobile") |
| Active Status Toggle | Show/hide inactive codes | Maintain a curated list while keeping historical data |
| MEP List Flag | Identify codes associated with manufacturing sectors | Filter codes relevant to Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) programs |
| Bulk Actions | Select multiple codes at once | Activate/deactivate groups of related industries; set MEP flags for multiple codes |
| Sort Controls | Sort by code, description, or status | Organize codes by any column |
NAICS Code Fields¶
Each NAICS code record contains:
- Code: Six-digit industry classification code (e.g., "336111")
- Description: Human-readable industry name (e.g., "Automobile Manufacturing")
- Active Status: Whether this code is available for selection in forms and assessments
- MEP List Flag: Whether this code qualifies for MEP manufacturing programs
