RESHORING INITIATIVE RESOURCES
The Reshoring Initiative provides the following resources to manufacturers, EDOs, MEPs, equipment suppliers, financial institutions and others that can participate in and benefit from reshoring:
Reshoring Initiative Data Report – Annual and semi-annual reports on aggregate data track the drivers, impact and momentum of the trend. Reshoring Initiative Database – Our comprehensive database includes 7,800+ reshoring and FDI cases, with detailed company-level data across 80 fields. Designed to support economic developers, policymakers, and companies, it enables targeted outreach, strategic planning, and identification of high-probability reshoring opportunities. Contact us for details. Total Cost of Ownership Estimator® – Free online tool helps companies account for all relevant factors — overhead, balance sheet, risks, corporate strategy, green and other external and internal business considerations — to determine the true total cost of ownership. It can be used by companies to make smarter sourcing decisions and to sell against imports. TCO Estimator user data shows that 20 to 30% of imported products can be made here more profitably. Call on the Reshoring Initiative for help using this and other tools. Results of our 2025 Reshoring Survey – Insights into why OEMs and contract manufacturers do and do not reshore. Advice on ReshoringGeopolitical Risk Report – This report provides for each country a geopolitical risk probability measure and broad geopolitical risk analysis to help guide stakeholders in assessing their unique risk exposure.
