What Do YOU Care About in U.S. Manufacturing?
-
Welcome to the NORAMARK Forums — a space created by and for American manufacturers, builders, buyers, and believers in the power of Made-in-USA.
We’re launching this forum not just to talk at the industry — but to talk with it.
So we’re starting simple:
What do YOU care about in U.S. manufacturing?
What’s keeping you up at night? What are you proud of? What are you building?
What needs to change — and what should stay the same?
This space is yours. Ask questions, share insight, challenge ideas, start movements.
Let’s get loud. Let’s get real. Let’s build something stronger — together.

I care a lot about Industrial Policy. The US is like the only major industrial nation to not have a national industrial policy. While I tend to shy away from TOO much government intervention, I think this is one area where private industry and government probably need to at least coordinate. We need a focus on cheap energy and raw materials to make it more cost effective for US manufacturers. Tariffs and government programs should be focused on those areas.
Then, a system like NORAMARK can be used to network manufacturers together that have common / shared interests. I often think of NORAMRK as a sort of "operating system" for network resource planning. In the mid to long-term I could see it being an effective tool for a National Industrial policy that is owned and operated primarily by the manufacturers themselves.

Couldn’t agree more, we must bolster our MFG base and ensure they have a workforce behind them. All of this starts with the school system in my opinion. Get trade schools going and teach kids that higher education is one path but not THE only path.

We're working with @Lucas_Pacheco to get a very cool high school onboard. They have a program to teach manufacturing classes, located in California.
