Re-Shoring: Bringing Work Back to the U.S.A.
NTMA - PMA Contract Manufacturing Purchasing Fair
Meet with U.S. job shops that can reduce your Total Cost of Ownership of parts and tooling!

Strengthen your company's supply chain while helping the U.S. economy recover!



There are 2 Ways to Obtain Parts and Tooling - Make Them or Buy Them... Here is a Chance to Lower Your Total Cost and Source More in the U.S.!
If you are currently outsourcing offshore, we would like to invite you to rethink your manufacturing strategy and also bring specs for work that is currently being made overseas so that we can show you how price/quality competitive U.S. companies can be for such work. Local sourcing can help you reduce and stabilize your Total Cost of Ownership, including:

  1. Price
  2. IP, regulatory and exchange rate risks
  3. Freight
  4. Duty
  5. Packaging
  6. Interest on inventory in-transit or in buffer due to uncertainty
  7. Travel and communications
  8. Rework
  9. Testing of incoming materials
  10. Having manufacturing near to R&D
  11. Carbon footprint
Registered customers may be eligible for 2 free nights lodging - find out more in the Purchasing Fair brochure.
