Abstract

Greg and Fred discussing the tradeoffs in reshoring.  Many companies are considering bringing design and manufacturing back to the US or host country.

Key Points

Join Greg and Fred as they discuss reshoring or bringing manufacturing back to the US.  The challenge is the US has lost much of its engineering and manufacturing capabilities.  In other words, we don’t know how to make the machines that make things and have the people run the machines that make things.  Big problem.

Topics include:

• Manufacturing challenges (risks) of reshoring.
• Design challenges (risks) of reshoring.
• People challenges (risks) of reshoring.
• Possible solutions (risks) to the above.

Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics. Join us as we discuss topics ranging from design for reliability techniques to field data analysis approaches.
