How Manufacturing Intelligence Helps Save American Jobs

The hot topic these days has to do with saving American manufacturing jobs.

While labor costs in Asia are still lower than they are in the United States, Africa and other developing regions are also becoming hubs of low-cost production. China itself has made significant investments in African infrastructure and manufacturing. 

Across the world, labor costs are equalizing, the developing world is catching up, and U.S. manufacturers face a future defined by an even more competitive and globalized economy—and it isn’t just investors and plant owners that should care.

America’s manufacturers need to know how they can be more competitive. They need manufacturing intelligence that drives actual results. They need accurate data so their operators and managers can make better decisions. 

Genuine change comes from the bottom up

It comes from an empowered and engaged operator who can take action to make her machine more efficient, her plant more profitable, and her community more economically resilient. Even if she isn’t aware that’s what she is doing. Transformation begins when you invest in technology that enables you to compete against any competitor in any part of the world.
