The electrical contracting industry biennial research, 2017 study
Finalists for the 2016 National Excellence Awards in Canberra
As we go to print the Market Monitor 2017
questionnaire is being finalised, and will be
available on NECA’s website www.neca.asn.
au from mid-December 2016 through to mid-
February 2017.
Given the overwhelming support we have
had from the industry in making this an online
study, 2017 will follow the same format. But
to make it even easier for you we will break
it down into three, or possibly four, modules.
That way you can do each module separately
if that’s easier for you timewise, and the
system will prompt you to continue in order
that we get your complete feedback. Again
as with the last study, Market Monitor is open
to business owners, business administrators/
purchase officers, employed qualified
electricians and apprentices. And you don’t
have to be a NECA member to participate.
In 2015 we had over 1,500 responses
and some very interesting findings. Based
on feedback from respondents in 2015,
and the broader industry, the next study will
focus on:
s
industry trends
s
the purchasing process
s
price v quality
s
the role of digital and online
s
non-compliant products
s
specialisations and training needs
s
better understanding the next generation
(including apprentices)
s
better understanding the end-user/
consumer.
All respondents will be invited to go into
a draw with 10 great prices! So do check
the NECA website or any of the four national
wholesalers’ websites (MMEM, L&H, Rexel or
CNW) to enter.
Here are the 2016 state winners, and
by the time your receive your copy of
Electrical Connection we will have our 11
category winners – who will be profiled in
the next issue.
