GlobalSpec, Inc. is a technology services company which provides a search engine of engineering and industrial products, indexing over 180 million parts divided into 2,300,000 product families, from over 24,000 manufacturer and distributor catalogs.

In 2007, the company achieved 35% revenue growth, the sixth year in a row that the company achieved double-digit revenue growth. The website has approximately 3.8 million visitors a month. GlobalSpec has partnerships with several well-known companies, including:

*AltaVista

*The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)

*The International Society of Automation (ISA)

*McGraw-Hill
