The survey collects data on capacity utilization from a small sample of manufacturing and publishing establishments in the United States. The data are used by the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) and the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), both of whom equally share the cost of funding the survey. The FRB uses the data as the primary source of benchmark information for utilization rates as well as an indicator of capital use in the estimation of monthly industrial production. The DLA uses the data to assess readiness to meet demands for goods under select national emergency scenarios.
