Shape the Future of Massachusetts Manufacturing: Participate in the MassMEP Pulse Survey

Calling all Massachusetts manufacturers! Your insights and perspectives are crucial in shaping the future of manufacturing policy in our state. The Massachusetts Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MassMEP), based in Auburn, has launched its annual Massachusetts Manufacturing Pulse Survey to capture trends, challenges, and opportunities within the manufacturing sector. This survey is open for submissions until the end of August, and your participation can make a significant impact.


Understanding the Massachusetts Manufacturing Pulse Survey

The Massachusetts Manufacturing Pulse Survey is more than just a questionnaire—it's a vital tool that measures the heartbeat of our state's manufacturing industry. By participating, you contribute valuable data that informs policymakers and stakeholders about the current state of manufacturing in Massachusetts. This includes insights into company growth, market share, cybersecurity practices, workforce challenges, supply chain dynamics, and other key employment statistics.

Kristy Grignon, Senior Director of Business Development at MassMEP, emphasized the importance of participation in a recent video on LinkedIn. "Every single manufacturer in Massachusetts should complete this survey," she urged. "We want to hear from everyone: small, medium, large, and every facet of the organization. Your voice matters."

Why Your Participation Matters

Your input through the survey enables MassMEP to advocate effectively for policies that support manufacturing growth and innovation. It helps identify areas where new policies are needed, assesses the demand for capital equipment and workforce training grants, and provides critical insights into the challenges faced by manufacturers of all sizes across the state.

"Whether you're a small machine shop, a family-owned ice cream maker, or a burgeoning startup, your perspective is invaluable," Grignon continued. The diversity of responses ensures that the survey accurately reflects the varied needs and experiences of Massachusetts manufacturers, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of the industry landscape.

Participating in the Massachusetts Manufacturing Pulse Survey is simple and impactful. The survey takes between five to seven minutes to complete and can be accessed through the MassMEP website and its various social media platforms. Your responses are confidential and will be aggregated with others to provide a holistic view of the industry.
