Texas Industry Profiles
by David Mass
T
he Texas industry profiles were recently redeveloped using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). This update
was undertaken as a means to provide end-users of employment data with an overview of statewide industrial employment and wage
statistics at the three- and four-digit industry levels.
Profiles have been developed for 61 industries. Each profile illustrates the total estimated employment level, growth rate, and percentage
of total Texas employment. The profiles also contain a thorough industry description, the size class distribution for the industry, a
component industry breakout of the industry, and historical employment information. Page 7 shows an example of the current profile for
the Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction (NAICS 237) industry.
LMCI plans to expand the list of industries available to include the entire spectrum of NAICS industries in the future, adding 33 profiles for
a total of 94 three-digit level industry profiles.
The following industry profiles will be available on June 1, 2004:

establishments whose primary activity is the construction of entire
engineering projects (e.g., highways and dams), and specialty trade
contractors, whose primary activity is the production of a specific
component for such projects. Specialty trade contractors in Heavy and
Civil Engineering Construction generally are performing activities that are
specific to heavy and civil engineering construction projects and are not
