The Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services sector comprises establishments performing routine support activities for the day-to-day operations of other organizations. These essential activities are often undertaken in-house by establishments in many sectors of the economy.

The administrative and management activities performed by establishments in this sector are typically on a contract or fee basis.

However, establishments involved in administering, overseeing, and managing other establishments of the company or enterprise are classified in NAICS Code 55 - Management of Companies and Enterprises. Establishments in NAICS Code 55 - Management of Companies and Enterprises, normally undertake the strategic and organizational planning and decision-making role of the company or enterprise.

Why do company counts differ?
The U.S. Economic Census counts establishments with paid employees that operated during the census year, including businesses that may have since closed. Its industry classifications draw on business-reported information and government records. SICCODE.com's counts reflect verified business records currently available for purchase, with classifications based on documented business activities. Differences in reporting periods, database coverage, classification methods and verification criteria mean the totals may differ.
