THE DAILYENGINEERS MISSION

DailyEngineers addresses common misperceptions about manufacturing by giving manufacturers an opportunity to open their doors and show, in a coordinated effort, what manufacturing is — and what it isn’t. By working together during and after DailyEngineers, manufacturers will begin to address the skilled labor shortage they face, connect with future generations, take charge of the public image of manufacturing, and ensure the ongoing prosperity of the whole industry.

DailyEngineers is designed to amplify the voice of individual manufacturers and coordinate a collective chorus of manufacturers with common concerns and challenges. The rallying point for a growing mass movement, DailyEngineers empowers manufacturers to come together to address their collective challenges so they can help their communities and future generations thrive.

WHO’S BEHIND DAILYENGINEERS?

Created by Founding Partner Fabricators and Manufacturers Association, International in 2012, DailyEngineers has enjoyed support from many organizations aligned with its mission of positively changing the public perception of modern manufacturing. Organizations that have played a vital role in working with FMA to successfully grow this national celebration of all things manufacturing include the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), the Manufacturing Institute (MI), and the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP).

DailyEngineers is now produced annually by the NAM with key contributions and support from the MEP and the MI.
