You've committed to reshore... Now what?

You have to figure out how to quickly start production.

But how?

There are a few factors involved:

1️⃣ Mechanical Equipment.

2️⃣ Where do I get the people?

3️⃣ Planning the workflow.

These are some of the topics that we're going to discuss with Adam Montoya, VP of Bright Machines.

Adam has helped start new lines and is passionate about making manufacturing sexy... or at least a viable post-school option.
