Strategy for American Leadership in Advanced Manufacturing: October 2018 Report on Smart Systems, Robotics and Cobots, Artificial Intelligence, Additive, Materials, Semiconductors, Hybrid Electronics
Strategy for American Leadership in Advanced Manufacturing: October 2018 Report on Smart Systems, Robotics and Cobots, Artificial Intelligence, Additive, Materials, Semiconductors, Hybrid Electronics
This 2018 strategic plan for advanced manufacturing, following extensive public outreach, is based on a vision for American leadership in advanced manufacturing across industrial sectors. This vision will be achieved by developing and transitioning new manufacturing technologies to market; educating, training, and connecting the manufacturing workforce; and expanding the capabilities of the domestic manufacturing supply chain. Strategic objectives are identified for each goal, along with technical and program priorities with specific actions and outcomes to be accomplished over the next four years.This compilation includes a reproduction of the 2019 Worldwide Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community.American Manufacturing and Competitiveness * Factors That Impact Innovation and Competitiveness for Advanced Manufacturing * Vision and Goals for Advanced Manufacturing * Goal 1: Develop and Transition New Manufacturing Technologies * Capture the Future of Intelligent Manufacturing Systems * Develop World-Leading Materials and Processing Technologies * Assure Access to Medical Products through Domestic Manufacturing * Maintain Leadership in Electronics Design and Fabrication * Strengthen Opportunities for Food and Agricultural Manufacturing * Goal 2: Educate, Train, and Connect the Manufacturing Workforce * Attract and Grow Tomorrow's Manufacturing Workforce * Update and Expand Career and Technical Education Pathways * Promote Apprenticeship and Access to Industry-Recognized Credentials * Match Skilled Workers with the Industries that Need Them * Goal 3: Expand the Capabilities of the Domestic Manufacturing Supply Chain * Increase the Role of Small and Medium-Sized Manufacturers in Advanced Manufacturing * Encourage Ecosystems of Manufacturing Innovation * Strengthen the Defense Manufacturing Base * Strengthen Advanced Manufacturing for Rural Communities * Progress Made in Achieving the Objectives from the 2012 Strategic PlanAlthough the United States is still the largest producer of products in some sectors, a worrisome development is the sharp decline in production and employment in some strategically important sectors, notably the communications and computer industries. America's manufacturing and defense industrial base and supply chain, composed of these and other key sectors, is essential to economic prosperity and must maintain the capacity to rapidly innovate and arm our warfighters to prevail in any conflict. Underlying all of the challenges for innovation and competitiveness in U.S. advanced manufacturing is a shortage of Americans with the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics knowledge and technical skills needed for advanced manufacturing jobs. Appropriate education and training is required from elementary through high school, and through technical training programs, re-training, apprenticeships, postsecondary education, and access to valid, industry-recognized, competency-based credentials-one of the highest priorities of the Trump Administration.Emerging markets, exports, and trade are all affected by advanced manufacturing. Manufacturing leadership not only requires advanced technologies, but the ability to effectively leverage new technologies and platforms across industrial sectors. Emerging markets will be driven by advances in smart and digital manufacturing systems, industrial robotics, artificial intelligence, additive manufacturing, high-performance materials, semiconductor and hybrid electronics, photonics, advanced textiles, biomanufacturing, food and agriculture manufacturing, and more. Many of these technologies represent dual opportunities-not only can they make other subsectors more competitive by increasing productivity, but the market for these emerging technologies themselves will be billions of dollars annually.
