‪Patrick Gallagher, Director NIST, Discusses How to Out Produce- Revitalizing Manufacturing‬‏

My name is Patrick Gallagher.

I'm the director of the
National Institute of Standards

and Technology and I'm
here today to talk to you

about Chapter 6-Revitalizing
U.S. Manufacturing.

This is a critical topic to
me because NIST's purpose is

to support U.S. industry's
competitiveness

through measurement
science and technology.

Manufacturing plays a
special role in our economy.

As Chapter 6 points out,

the manufacturing sector
is a significant part

of our overall GDP, but
it also is instrumental

in creating high quality,
high pay jobs in our economy

and in supporting our
national infrastructure

and national defense.

But one point

about manufacturing is often
not well understood and that's

that the manufacturing sector
itself plays a critical role

in our nation's capacity
to innovate.

Almost two-thirds
of our research

and development capacity in
the business sector is based

in manufacturing-based
industries.

Manufacturing also plays
a critical role in trade.

Most of our tradable
economy is based

in the manufacturing sector.

But manufacturing is a
private sector activity.

The federal government
doesn't manufacture anything.

So given the importance
of manufacturing,

what's the federal role
in addressing this?

Well, manufacturing is
a very broad sector.

There are a lot of
activities here

and the federal government's
role

in manufacturing is equally
broad, but just as critical.

It includes investments
we make in research

and development
infrastructure-the subject

of Chapter 3.

It includes our investments
and focus on education

and workforce development.

It includes our role
in supporting

and promoting U.S. small
and mid-size businesses.

It includes our efforts
in trade policy

to promote fair and
equitable trade.

In short, the health of our
nation's economy depends

on the health of our U.S.
manufacturing sector.


This is why revitalizing U.S.
based manufacturing should be a

national priority.

Or, as Secretary Bryson
said, our goal should be

to "Build it here and
sell it everywhere."
