  1. Helping Puget Sound manufacturers succeed through innovation, supply chain positioning, and business developmentAPICS Professional Development MeetingApril 9, 2008 Designed by Danielle Hinkle-Abba, SRI International

  2. CAMPS Mission Helping Puget Sound manufacturers succeed through Innovation Supply chain positioning Business development

  3. Value Proposition: Value Proposition The value of a CAMPS membership lies in the power associated with being part of a network of manufacturers, supply chain partners, business advisors, and strategic partners, all working together. CAMPS provides the connections to establish business relationships among members, share in a culture of innovation, and create supply chain development opportunities in emerging businesses, technologies, and processes.

  4. Project History 2002 - City of Kent and Kent Chamber completed a long range strategic plan. Local manufacturers indicated a need to find a solution to off-shore competition and changing supply chain conditions 2003 - Manufacturing Council of the Kent Chamber Board meets to develop plans for the Center. The City of Kent and Kent Chamber jointly submit grant applications to the Economic Development Administration (EDA) to secure funding for a feasibility analysis and business plan for the Center 2004 – Washington State Legislature passes bill establishing non-profit Centers for Advanced Manufacturing . A grant of up to $350,000 is approved by the EDA, with matching funds received from the City of Kent, Port of Seattle, manufacturers, and other businesses July 2005 - Grant received from EDA, State Legislature approves matching funds of $215,000 November 2005 - Consultant team selected to conduct a feasibility study April 2006 - Feasibility Study completed July 2006 - Business Plan completed July 2007 - CTED awards $150,000 to launch CAMPS (provided match to remaining EDA funds) October 2007 - Executive Director appointed January 2008 – Officially launched

  5. Manufacturing in Puget Sound General Information: 3,000 Manufacturers Most all industries Over 1,000 are involved with the metal trades Feasibility Study: One-third – Highly interested in a Center for Advanced Manufacturing One-third – Moderately interested in a Center for Advanced Manufacturing, but generally wanted more information One- third – Little or no interest in a Center for Advanced Manufacturing

  6. Impacts Feasibility Study projections of likely economic impacts of a Kent-based center over five years include: An increase of $129  million in sales Cost savings of $21 million New investments of $27 million 366 jobs created 878 jobs retained

  7. Feasibility Study Recommendations Significant challenges: Manufacturing employment is declining Operating costs are high Access to skilled workers is limited and competitive Offshore competition is still an issue Feel isolated and have not been effectively reached by existing providers Most area manufactures know they need help -- they just don’t know where to get the assistance

  8. Feasibility Study Recommendations The Center should focus on a few things and do them well - core competencies (e.g., innovation, networking, and supply chain development) and do them very well Center should not duplicate what other organizations are already doing Successful transformative work is hard work, is often risky, and needs to be built over time Successful transformative work involves higher level participation than more routine assistance work It is also more expensive Top Down, high-level support for change from within the firm is a key ingredient for success High degree of trust that firms place in the center. Usually this trust is built up over time.

  9. CAMPS today CAMPS is a non-profit membership organization Camps is governed by an independent Board of Directors Camps has a Puget Sound Focus Forward-thinking manufacturing companies who recognize the need to be pro-active in our rapidly changing world Focus on finding innovative products and processes Desire to position their companies in the supply chain process Recognize the need for pre-qualified business development specialists Want solutions to workforce issues Want alternatives to overcome financial constraints to fund growth
