Manufacturing.gov Act: Central Hub for Federal Manufacturing Programs
The Manufacturing.gov Act establishes a central online platform where citizens and businesses can find comprehensive information about U.S. government manufacturing support programs. This aims to simplify access to data, contacts, and allow for feedback, potentially fostering local business growth and job creation. All this will be achieved without additional taxpayer funds, utilizing existing resources.
Key points
A single website (manufacturing.gov hub) will be created to centralize information on all federal manufacturing support programs.
The site will provide contact details for relevant offices and allow manufacturers to submit feedback and report challenges.
Sections will cover technology, trade, workforce development, supply chains, and support for small and medium manufacturers.
The platform will use artificial intelligence to answer frequently asked questions, making information more accessible.
