ACT Research collects commercial vehicle production information directly from the OEMs, including market and business indicators (dating back to 1996) including:

• new orders
• net orders
• cancellations
• backlog
• build
• inventory
• retail sales

ACT Research releases preliminary net orders, which we ask for by the end of the 2nd business day of the month (for the previous month’s orders). This data (currently Class 5, Classes 6/7, and Class 8) is provided back to the OEMs and our subscribing customers. Then, collecting all final data by the 15th of each month, ACT Research analyses and produces the following reports:

• State of the Industry: N.A. Classes 5-8
• N.A. OEM Classes 5-8 Build and Retail Sales Report
• N.A. Classes 5-8 Vehicles by Country
• N.A. Classes 5-7 Bus Report
