Made in the USA: End-to-End Guide to Developing Your U.S. Manufacturing Footprint
Intel is investing billions in new semiconductor fabrication in Ohio. In the last five years, Eli Lilly has committed over $50 billion to expand its U.S. manufacturing footprint, announcing plans to build four new domestic sites in 2025. Apple has pledged more than $600 billion to expand its U.S. manufacturing operations over the next four years. Titans in technology, pharmaceuticals, and automotive are rapidly growing their domestic footprints.
“Made in the USA� is regaining momentum. Once a symbol of pride — or skepticism — the phrase now reflects a strategic shift toward domestic manufacturing. Companies are rethinking offshore strategies in response to global tensions, political shifts, rising overseas costs, regulatory hurdles, and hard-earned lessons from pandemic-era supply chain disruptions.
Recent policy changes — tariffs, deregulation, tax incentives — have accelerated this trend. Billions are being invested in U.S. facilities across industries, signaling renewed confidence in American manufacturing.
As companies evaluate where to expand, the U.S. deserves a fresh look. What’s driving industry leaders to choose American soil?
In this series, our multidisciplinary team explores the key considerations: supply chain strategy, site selection, government incentives, build-vs.-buy decisions, financing, permitting, energy, cybersecurity, and workforce development. At this pivotal moment, we’re here to help businesses lead the way — building smarter, stronger, and more resilient manufacturing in the U.S.
