Role of Manufacturing Manufacturing companies account for $123 billion of the nation’s $278 billion spent on R&D in year 2003—a 45% national share. Manufacturing companies account for $123 billion of the nation’s $278 billion spent on R&D in year 2003—a 45% national share. This compares to a 13% share of manufacturing sector output in overall gross domestic product, or GDP. This compares to a 13% share of manufacturing sector output in overall gross domestic product, or GDP. Midwestern manufacturing companies have a strong orientation toward knowledge-intensive manufacturing. The region’s manufacturing companies account for 66% of the region’s R&D versus 19% of the region’s total output.

Current situation The U.S. is stuck between high-wage countries competing on the basis of new products and processes, and developing countries competing on the basis of low wages. The U.S. is stuck between high-wage countries competing on the basis of new products and processes, and developing countries competing on the basis of low wages. Often the response of U.S. firms to this competition has been to make good jobs worse – cutting pay and benefits, increasing hours – rather than drawing on and developing the skills of workers and pursuing innovations.

Offshore Manufacturing? If the differential shrinks after many U.S. firms have gone out of business, it would be difficult to regain its capabilities. If the differential shrinks after many U.S. firms have gone out of business, it would be difficult to regain its capabilities. One study finds that it adds 24% to the estimated costs of offshoring 1.

Concerns in Manufacturing Innovation in the U.S. Federally supported R&D in the physical science has fallen from 0.25% of GDP to 0.13% over the last 20 years. Federally supported R&D in the physical science has fallen from 0.25% of GDP to 0.13% over the last 20 years. More than 80% of manufacturers report shortages of qualified workers.

Workforce People are the company’s greatest asset. People are the company’s greatest asset. 74% of manufacturers report that a high performance workforce is the key business driver. 74% of manufacturers report that a high performance workforce is the key business driver. Other two drivers: product innovation and low cost producer. Other two drivers: product innovation and low cost producer. The common perception that being the low-cost producer is the only factor that leads to business success does not match today’s reality.

Conclusions It is much cheaper to act now to preserve the manufacturing capacity we have than to try to reconstruct it once it is gone.
