As a small business owner, you probably have heard of the NAICS code, but may not know what it means and what it is used for. Read more about the NAICS numbering system at the US Census Bureau. http://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/sssd/naics /naicsrch?chart=2007
Some federal and state agencies require businesses to have a NAICS code for administrative, contracting, and tax purposes. If you are working with a particular federal agency or state agency, you can ask if you need one. Federal Compliance Contacts and Resources: http://business.g...ov/
