KPMG – GLOBAL MANUFACTURING OUTLOOK
“Manufacturers are going to face really fierce competition over every scrap of market share available…”
“The only certainty is that there will be winners and losers.”
“…manufacturers will need to either invest into new technologies in order to ‘grow the pie’ or resort to a brutal competitive fight to steal market share away from rivals.”

DELOITTE – GLOBAL MANUFACTURING
COMPETITIVENESS INDEX (GMCI)
“…advanced manufacturing technologies are key to unlocking future competitiveness.”
“… manufacturers continue to rank talent as the most critical driver of global manufacturing competitiveness.”
“China is the most competitive manufacturing nation… for now.”

Current ProjectsVarious ARM projects currently
underway.
1. Teach-Bot Apprentice Education and Training System
Principal Investigator: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
Project Description: This project lowers the barriers of entry to careers in manufacturing with no
coding, technical jargon, or complex reasoning involved in the introductory course. The Teach-Bot
project centers on the use of ABB robots to teach industrial robotics to pre-apprentices, American workers, and SMM
managers. The robots play the role as an instructor and mentor by showing demos and executing experiments.
2. Revitalizing Apprenticeships for Small and Medium
Sized Industries
Principal Investigator: Clemson University
Project Description: This project centers on the creation of modules to facilitate stackable credentials in robotics and
automation that culminate in a Robotic Systems Certificate. In addition to student-focused modules, the project
includes a careers pathway focus to educate students, counselors, and parents about careers in robotics-enabled
industries.

3. SMART – Smart Manufacturing and Advanced Robotics Training
Principal Investigator: The Robotics Academy (Carnegie Mellon University)
Project Description: The SMART Project centers on the creation of stackable credentials to
provide students with robotic preparation skills. By integrating input from community colleges,
manufacturers, and roboticists, SMART will help high school students gain fundamental training for future careers in
robotics. This program will first target students in high school, but in the future will expand to target unemployed,
underemployed, and incumbent workers.
4. Robotics Technician Apprenticeship Program
Principal Investigator: Catalyst Connection
Project Description: The Robotics Technician Apprenticeship Program is an expansive project that will enhance existing
training resources, provide in-class training, offer lab/experiential, and secure industry-led training for participants at
manufacturing job sites.

5. Apprenticeship Academy Mechatronics Pilot Program with
NIMS Recognized Robotics Certification
Principal Investigator: The Commonwealth Center for Advanced Manufacturing (CCAM)
Project Description: This project will create an apprenticeship that focuses on Mechatronics as the foundation to
create a NIMS-recognized Robotics Certification. Specifically, this program will address the manufacturing talent gap
for transitioning military, under/unemployed, and youth to fill 3.5 million manufacturing jobs needed in the next ten
years. The project is structured as a learn-as-you-earn career path with a participating industry employer who sponsors
the student’s training and pays their salary.
6. Connecticut Apprenticeship Program in Robotics & Automation
Principal Investigator: University of Connecticut
Project Description: This project establishes a network of Connecticut manufacturers focused on robotics and
automation with the following outcomes: 1) the launching of the first year of a modular dual-training apprenticeship
program; 2) the implementation of a faculty in-residence program for technology development and insertion and; 3)
long-term strategic planning to ensure program growth and sustainability.
