Before investing in new facilities or equipment, manufacturers should maximize existing capacity and capabilities. In the Industrial Insights podcast, Lisa Anderson and Justin Smith discuss how production planning, ERP, AI, SIOP, and supply chain network optimization can improve performance and support profitable growth.
U.S. manufacturing investment is surging, creating significant opportunities for growth. Manufacturers that anticipate emerging demand, leverage existing capabilities, and strengthen capacity planning and SIOP will be better positioned to enter new markets, optimize resources, and turn investment opportunities into profitable growth.
Manufacturers need to expand capacity, but building more of the same is not enough. Anduril's software-defined manufacturing approach demonstrates how integrating AI, automation, and technology from the start can accelerate production, strengthen the manufacturing ecosystem, and build scalable capacity to meet growing demand.
U.S. manufacturing growth opportunities are substantial, but capturing them will require a new playbook. Manufacturers must combine AI-enabled technologies, resilient regional supply chains, and proactive capacity planning to increase productivity, scale operations, and turn growing demand into profitable growth.
Reshoring production is only the first step. Apple’s investments in advanced manufacturing demonstrate why manufacturers need to build the people, supplier capabilities, capacity, AI, automation, and planning processes required to compete, scale, and capture future growth opportunities.
New U.S.-made requirements for advanced robotics are reshaping supply chains and creating opportunities for domestic manufacturers. Companies should evaluate their extended supplier networks, secure critical components, and build the capacity and capabilities needed to scale with growing demand.
U.S. exports are surging, creating new growth opportunities for manufacturers. Lisa Anderson explores the trends driving export growth and how manufacturers can prepare their operations and supply chains to scale successfully.
Hyperscale manufacturing can help manufacturers rapidly expand production while adapting to changing products, technologies, and demand. Lisa Anderson explains how manufacturers can build scalability into their products, operations, technology, and supply chains.
Lisa Anderson joined the Composites Weekly podcast to discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping manufacturing and supply chains. The conversation explores practical AI applications, emerging technologies, and how manufacturers can leverage innovation to improve decision-making, operational performance, and supply chain agility.
Manufacturing is gaining momentum, creating significant opportunities for companies prepared to scale. Learn how to strengthen demand planning, assess end-to-end capacity, leverage technology strategically, and position your business for profitable growth.
