Manufacturing Solutions Company MASS Group Applauds U.S. House for Passing America COMPETES Act, Revitalizing and Empowering Domestic Manufacturing Industry

The United States House of Representatives passed the America COMPETES Act with the intent to revitalize and empower America's manufacturing industry

The America COMPETES Act

The America COMPETES Act, an act created to increase U.S. semiconductor manufacturing and overall boost America's competitiveness with China, was passed in February 2022 and includes a massive investment to surge production of American-made semiconductors. The America Creating Opportunities for Manufacturing Pre-Eminence in Technology Strength Act (America COMPETES Act) includes a $52 billion fund to fabricate microchips, a $45 billion investment to improve the supply chain for critical goods, and $160 billion for scientific research and innovation. Overall, the act was made to ensure that critical items were manufactured in the United States rather than relying on outside countries. The policy will directly affect the manufacturing industry in the U.S. and allow the U.S. to compete with countries like China.

The new policy will have a huge impact on the overall semiconductor manufacturing industry. With the new bill, manufacturers from across the United States will be able to drastically scale their operations and improve their automated systems and processes.  

Software such as MASS Group, Inc.'s Traceability Made Easy® (TME®) suite of software products is an integral part of the escalation. By incorporating a comprehensive Manufacturing Execution System (MES), Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), and Warehouse Management System (WMS) software solution, semiconductor fabs can vastly improve data collection, product genealogy reporting, inventory and FOUP tracking, asset performance, quality control and compliance management. There's never been a better opportunity or environment to put software solutions in place to automate, streamline, and enhance operations and analytic reporting.
