A recent industry publication article highlights the important contribution manufacturers make in the overall U.S. economy.
During a recent interview with Mark Muro, head of the Metropolitan Policy Program at Brookings, Industry Week discussed the important impact the manufacturing industry has on the national economy. Muro argues that the manufacturing industry is a vital component of the U.S. economy. He credits the industry’s positive influence to its continuing innovation and growing export capabilities. For manufacturers, this is a welcome discussion. Manufacturing companies provide nearly 60 to 70 percent of the nation’s exports and are a primary driver of private domestic research and development investments.
Inclusive and Responsible Employment
In the article, Muro makes the case that manufacturers also boost the economy by paying higher wages to employees which include individuals who may have industry specific training but do not necessarily have a college degree. This allows workers to enjoy a living wage while they continue to make an important contribution to the nation’s economy. Furthermore, Muro points out that the manufacturing industry is overall productive, well-paying, and inclusive. He stresses that this is an excellent model for all industries and wants to keep a conversation going on how we can adopt these traits across our economy to help improve our country’s financial situation.
Constant Collaboration Drives Innovation
In addition to these attributes, the article also discusses the collaborative and innovative aspects of the manufacturing industry and points towards ways the industry is growing and evolving. Engineers and technicians no longer work alone, but collaborate on projects to take products to the next level and discover ways to creatively solve problems and meet new demands. This is especially apparent in the automotive aftermarket industry and automotive performance racing industries. New components are designed every year that improve vehicle efficiency and performance and require a new level of skill and ingenuity to develop, manufacture, and implement.
