The five questions we asked

Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.

1“Best suppliers of electrical and electronic enclosures in Minnesota”
2“Who supplies NEMA-rated outdoor electrical enclosures in Minnesota”
3“I need a Minnesota enclosure partner for a new industrial control panel line, who should I talk to”
4“Top electrical and electronic enclosures suppliers in Minnesota for OEM equipment buyers”
5“Which Minnesota electrical and electronic enclosure manufacturers can provide custom powder-coated stainless steel housings”
6“List 20 electrical and electronic enclosures companies in Minnesota with their specialties.”the roster question

Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
