Founded in 1990, the Econometric Center is a research unit of Kennesaw State University, the second largest university in Metro Atlanta. The Center specializes in manufacturing, industry, and macroeconomic analysis.

Over the years, the Center has developed ties with purchasing associations and purchasing managers in various states. Since 2006, the Center has prepared a set of purchasing managers index reports for the U.S. Southeast.

The Econometric Center focuses on data-intensive projects. Using advanced statistics and computing, we discover patterns and relationships that otherwise would be difficult to identify.

The Econometric Center, partnering with local purchasing associations, prepares the monthly Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) Report. This PMI report provides an analysis of the most current market conditions for the manufacturing sector in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi,
and Louisiana.
