Overview
Moving manufacturing offshore led to the loss of 5.8 million manufacturing jobs and the loss of 60,000 companies and since the year 2000. What was the impact on the American economy? Is manufacturing returning to America?
In this webinar, expert speaker Michele Nash-Hoff will provide you the answers to the above while helping you understand the hidden costs and risks of manufacturing offshore. You will learn how to conduct a Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)analysis to make the decision of whether or not to return your manufacturing to America.
Why should you attend this webinar?
It is crucial for American companies that do not have offshore plants to be trained on how to do a true Total Cost of Ownership Analysis using the TCO Estimator as a counter to the continuing trend of offshoring manufacturing jobs by multinational corporations that have facilities all over the world. 
This session will discuss the factors that are changing supply chain dynamics that make offshoring less attractive and identify industries that have reached the tipping point of returning to the U. S. Michele will also describe how the Reshoring Initiative's TCO worksheet is enabling companies to conduct a TCO analysis to determine how to reshore their products/parts.
Additionally, Michele will present case studies of companies that have successfully returned manufacturing to the U.S. using a TCO analysis. Supply chain personnel and CFOs can play key roles in educating company management about assessing the true costs of offshoring versus reshoring.
