All companies within the Asite Marketplace are organised by classifications and categories. Classifications describe what type of company that they are - contracting, consulting, manufacturing, etc. Categories describe the type of work that a company does - mechanical, electrical, plumbing, etc. Below is a list of the standard classifications and categories that we support in the system. In addition, as a buyer organisation, you can map your own terminology against these standard values to better align with your business processes.
