NTMA BENCHMARKING SURVEYS AND REPORTS
NTMA conducts four benchmarking surveys annually – the Executive Compensation Survey (in January), the Operating Costs Survey (in March), the Business Conditions Report (July and December) and the Wage & Fringe Benefit Survey (in September). These surveys result in valuable benchmarking reports – available FREE to survey participants.
What’s in it for you? As a survey participant you will receive an individual Financial Performance Report analyzing your company. This report compares your financial performance to industry standards. In order to protect your confidential data, Mackay Research Group sends this report directly to you. And it’s free to survey participants. See samples from an earlier Operating Costs Report (click here) and Executive Compensation Report.
Executive Compensation Report
Closely-held corporations are often the target of IRS “reasonable” compensation challenges. The Executive Compensation Report examines issues relating to reasonable compensation by analyzing the range of pay, including base salary, bonus, benefits & perks, that executives earn in the precision custom tooling & machining industry.

Operating Costs Report
This report is a financial analysis of the custom tooling & machining industry. It can help you improve your financial results by establishing “typical” financial performance targets and by analyzing how “high-profit” companies in the industry achieve their success.
NTMA Wage & Fringe Benefit Report
This Report examines high, low, and average wage rates for 34 job functions giving you better feedback than ever before for the range of competitive plant wages in your NTMA chapter, your region, by sales size and by line of business. The survey also covers fringe benefits offered for plant employees. This data is useful for recruiting and employee promotion purposes.
