00:06.380 --> 00:08.547
There are nearly 100,000 organizations

00:08.547 --> 00:10.658
across the United States that support

00:10.658 --> 00:12.713
the US Department of Defense . These

00:12.713 --> 00:14.936
organizations make planes , weapons and

00:14.936 --> 00:16.936
everything needed to support the US

00:16.936 --> 00:18.824
military . In order to ensure the

00:18.824 --> 00:21.102
safety and security of the US military .

00:21.102 --> 00:23.158
We need to make these things here in

00:23.158 --> 00:25.158
the United States , but we can't do

00:25.158 --> 00:24.639
that without a workforce that is

00:24.649 --> 00:26.260
trained to implement digital

00:26.260 --> 00:28.149
technologies . And cyber security

00:28.149 --> 00:29.816
practices for manufacturing .

00:29.816 --> 00:31.871
Manufacturers are facing significant

00:31.871 --> 00:33.871
issues attracting and retaining new

00:33.871 --> 00:35.705
workers . In fact , by 2030 it's

00:35.705 --> 00:37.927
estimated there will be 2.1 million job

00:37.927 --> 00:40.149
openings in manufacturing in the United

00:40.149 --> 00:41.982
States due to a skills gap , new

00:41.982 --> 00:44.205
technologies require new skill sets and

00:44.205 --> 00:46.038
US manufacturers who support the

00:46.038 --> 00:48.260
defense industrial base will not remain

00:48.260 --> 00:50.427
competitive with the rest of the world

00:50.427 --> 00:50.419
if they do not invest in their workers

00:50.680 --> 00:53.770
on the other side , rapidly evolving

00:53.779 --> 00:56.450
skill requirements due to uptake of

00:56.459 --> 00:58.515
technology at a pace that we haven't

00:58.515 --> 01:00.570
seen in a very long time . These are

01:00.570 --> 01:02.720
new technologies which require new

01:02.729 --> 01:05.150
skills and fundamentally new roles and

01:05.160 --> 01:08.430
jobs . There is no other sector that is

01:08.440 --> 01:11.190
as hacked and as vulnerable as

01:11.199 --> 01:13.255
manufacturing and if you think about

01:13.255 --> 01:15.612
what we're producing both in terms of

01:15.623 --> 01:18.343
IP and product as well as manufacturing

01:18.352 --> 01:21.273
being the backbone of National defense .

01:21.282 --> 01:23.449
This is something that everyone should

01:23.449 --> 01:25.560
care about particularly in Department

01:25.560 --> 01:27.572
of Defense . So M X D worked with

01:27.583 --> 01:29.913
manpower group to create two hiring

01:29.922 --> 01:32.144
guys , one in digital for manufacturing

01:32.144 --> 01:33.811
and one in cyber security for

01:33.811 --> 01:35.922
manufacturing . These two hiring guys

01:35.922 --> 01:38.089
provide a blueprint for industry as to

01:38.089 --> 01:40.200
what kinds of skills they're going to

01:40.200 --> 01:42.366
want to employ and their facilities to

01:42.366 --> 01:44.589
adopt the latest technologies and cyber

01:44.589 --> 01:46.478
security practices . These hiring

01:46.478 --> 01:48.200
guides have been made publicly

01:48.200 --> 01:50.033
available and free and have been

01:50.033 --> 01:52.144
downloaded nearly 2000 times . Dow is

01:52.144 --> 01:54.311
an example of an industry partner that

01:54.311 --> 01:56.478
has used our hiring guide to establish

01:56.478 --> 01:58.589
a new digital manufacturing team . MD

01:58.589 --> 02:00.755
is helping Dow identify the skills and

02:00.755 --> 02:02.922
training that will be required for our

02:02.922 --> 02:02.849
future workforce . Dow is using mx's

02:02.980 --> 02:05.202
hiring guide to create the roles within

02:05.202 --> 02:07.369
our digital operations center in which

02:07.369 --> 02:09.480
Caitlin Kelsey is a member and one of

02:09.480 --> 02:13.110
our leaders in mobility technology was

02:13.119 --> 02:15.360
a key evaluator in the jobs taxonomy

02:15.369 --> 02:17.660
project here at M X D A number of years

02:17.669 --> 02:20.869
ago , we've leveraged that taxonomy in

02:20.880 --> 02:22.936
a number of ways . Here at MX D . We

02:22.936 --> 02:25.330
have developed the mobile worker

02:25.339 --> 02:27.539
process test bed where we have a full

02:27.550 --> 02:29.161
stack integration of digital

02:29.161 --> 02:31.328
technologies specifically centered for

02:31.328 --> 02:33.439
what a process industry would mean it

02:33.439 --> 02:35.606
gives us a space to come together with

02:35.606 --> 02:37.494
our solution providers and really

02:37.494 --> 02:39.661
demonstrate what it is that we want in

02:39.661 --> 02:41.828
the digital space as well as show some

02:41.828 --> 02:43.939
of our industry competitors . What it

02:43.939 --> 02:45.994
is the art of the possible really is

02:45.994 --> 02:48.217
the second hiring guide . We did looked

02:48.217 --> 02:50.630
at the cyber security paradox that we

02:50.639 --> 02:52.710
have in manufacturing , we have to

02:52.720 --> 02:55.820
create clear pathways for people to

02:55.830 --> 02:58.029
actually move into some of these more

02:58.039 --> 03:00.300
in demand roles so that we can secure

03:00.309 --> 03:02.854
what and so that we can build and

03:02.865 --> 03:04.934
advance our prosperity as a nation

03:04.945 --> 03:06.889
while staying secure . I think the

03:06.889 --> 03:08.889
Department of Defense should really

03:08.889 --> 03:10.612
care about what's happening in

03:10.612 --> 03:12.834
manufacturing right now . Manufacturing

03:12.834 --> 03:14.945
is not just the key to prosperity for

03:14.955 --> 03:17.494
this country , it's also the key to its

03:17.505 --> 03:18.824
security as a nation .
