About this sector
Industrials groups both suppliers of physical equipment and businesses delivering services or operating infrastructure. Its industries include machinery and heavy vehicles, construction and engineering, aerospace and defense, freight, passenger transport, transport infrastructure and commercial services.
How to compare projects
A component supplier, an engineering business and a transport operator perform different roles. Use the industry and profile description to understand that role before reading the available research. For aerospace-related records, check whether the profile describes aviation, space, defense or a combination.
