Launch of the Most Comprehensive Industry Search Engine for NAICS, SIC, and IRS Business Activity Codes

FREE, new web resource makes it easy to locate and cross reference NAICS, SIC and IRS Business Activity codes - www.naicscode.com

Boston, MA, (PRWEB) December 8, 2003 --Today marks the launch of an exciting, new web-based solution, http://www.naicscode.com/, for accountants, business owners, library professionals, and anyone needing to identify the appropriate North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code or the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Business Activity Code (based on the NAICS system) for a U.S. business.

The IRS Business Activity Code is a required line on a business tax return, yet many CPAs admit that they are not sure whether they have made the correct IRS Business Activity Code assignment. IRS Business Activity codes, formerly based on the SIC Code system, are now based on the 2002 NAICS system. Having the wrong code assigned raises the risk of an IRS audit – an occurrence CPAs and business owners want to avoid!

In addition, business owners, librarians, and information professionals who research companies for marketing purposes have an immediate need to find the right NAICS codes, and the equivalent SIC codes, for their competitors and customers to ensure accurate analysis. The major transition from the use of SIC codes to NAICS codes is well underway but, until now, the tools for tracking these changes have been limited in scope and capability.

This new industry search engine is sophisticated (draws on over 20,000 descriptive terms), simple to use, and FREE! NAICSCode.com offers features other industry search engines do not, including:
·   Searching by IRS Business Activity Code, 1997 NAICS or 2002 NAICS, or Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) number
·   Full title and description keyword searches
