Simco Controls: 1.5 TCR = 70% of General-purpose industrial machinery and equipment merchant wholesalers BLS 2.2 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Simco Controls safety composite

Simco Controls scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 27%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
