Use Air Traffic Control's NAICS benchmark as a comparison point, not a forecast for one business.
Air Traffic Control is reported here with financial measures from IRS Statistics of Income and workforce measures from Census County Business Patterns. The page keeps those source systems distinct, shows unavailable fields rather than estimating them, and links the underlying industry context so readers can compare the same NAICS activity before interpreting a margin or payroll figure.
