Description:
Across the globe, the manufacturing industry is vital for economic
prosperity, contributing to exports, offering much needed employment and
ultimately increasing the standard of living. It is an essential source of
innovation and a driver of global competitiveness, fostering research &
development and economic growth. In the United States, every dollar spent in
manufacturing adds $1.37 to the national economy, and for every 100 jobs created
in a manufacturing facility, an additional 250 jobs are created in other
sectors. In 2012, manufacturing accounted for approximately 16% of global GDP
and 14% of employment, and its importance continues to grow.3 Despite this
favorable outlook, manufacturers will face significant challenges in the coming
years. This survey seeks to understand some of the key priorities for
manufacturers as well as their strategies for growth, specifically with respect
to capabilities, physical resources and human capital.
