May 19, 2020 – The Coordinate Metrology Society (CMS) in collaboration with the PrecisionPath Consortium (PPC) announced the official launch of their 3D Measurement Industry-at-large Survey . Participants can also select the "Take our 2020 Survey" button found on either the CMS or PPC websites to make their contribution to this study. Users, managers, experts, or novices in the field of 3D measurement are urged to take the survey being offered until August 31, 2020. The study is conducted solely for research purposes and all answers are private.
To ensure confidentiality, no identifying personal information is linked to the survey responses, although an email address is required to initiate the survey . The PrecisionPath Consortium will review the granular findings of the study and report the results in a State-of-the-Metrology Industry Report to be released in the second half of the year. All participants are invited to enter a giveaway for an Apple iPad, sponsored by New River Kinematics (NRK). The 2020 CMS-PPC survey examines the principal factors affecting measurement professionals today. 3D measurement practitioners are asked to share their perspectives on career requirements, technology usage, workforce trends, job challenges and the anticipated support needed to move the industry forward.
Metrologists serve in a variety of roles in diverse industrial and scientific markets such as aerospace, automotive, power generation, medical, and national laboratories. The survey takes less than 10 minutes to complete, yet it comprehensively sweeps the metrology industry landscape.
