How does American manufacturing move forward in the next decade? AMT believes cooperation and
innovation are the keys. How do we achieve this vision? By developing a clear path that AMT calls
the Manufacturing Mandate. AMT is calling for a federal policy of collaboration between government,
industry and academia. The federal policy would incentivize innovation and R&D in new products and
manufacturing technologies; assure the availability of capital; increase global competitiveness; minimize
structural cost burdens; and enhance and build a better educated and trained “smartforce.”
A solid recovery has been slow to take hold, and that has been especially true in the manufacturing sector
where credit remains tight and uncertainty over the future has prevented companies from retooling,
diversifying, and investing in R&D. AMT believes its national manufacturing mandate is necessary to
cement this recovery and create a strong foundation for sustained economic growth.
It is clear the credit and confidence obstacles are shifting attention away from where it should be: on
innovation and creating the highly skil led, well-paid jobs that naturally follow. The United States
currently lags behind our trading partners in new fields we should be dominating. That is because we
operate in a business and regulatory environment that thwarts our progress. If we don’t redirect our
government policy and resources to focus on innovation and R&D, there will be more missed opportunities
for American technological leadership and our citizens will ultimately suffer.
It is possible for the government, industry, and our academic communities to work together, utilizing
an infrastructure already in place, to revitalize our manufacturing sector and promote real economic
growth. AMT is poised to work with the federal government to implement a national manufacturing
s t rategy – a Manufacturing Mandate that will establish the United States as the worldwide leader
in next-generation manufacturing technologies and the world-class products and services they provide.

Since 2002, the United States has run a trade deficit in advanced technology
products. If this trend continues, the United States will cease to be competitive
in many manufacturing technology markets.
