This Letter outlines the Work Plan Direction for the CoHort in the next number of months and <br />beyond: <br />An outcome from the May 17 Anoka Area Chamber Manufacture CoHort meeting was to review <br />the discussion points on "new" areas for discovery in support of regional Manufacturing. These <br />potential new topics would allow for additional value to be gathered from our effort and would <br />run concurrently with the continuing effort we have in the workforce planning from the past <br />few years. Here is a recap of the top scoring topics. <br />Top Scoring Item: <br />A' TFpr ATF \n'npl(pnprE fPT!fN!c - This CoHort needs to understand alternate resources <br />addressing workforce. What are the available pools of workforce and how does this CoHort get <br />access to these groups? <br />The Next Three Scored Equal: <br />NEXT LEVEL SKILL SETS - The CoHort should collectively work on broad opportunities addressing <br />"skill sets to take to the next level" impacting manufacturing. Both internal and external. <br />TECHONOLOGY TRENDS - You believe that understanding new applications and trends with <br />Technology would be valuable to the CoHort. <br />AUTOMATIC - You believe that Automation would be an important area to explore. <br />The Third Highest Scoring item: <br />NEW HR COHORT - I would believe that the creation of an HR CoHort facilitated by the Anoka <br />Area Chamber would be a valuable addition to Chamber members. <br />The Last Four Rounded Out The Questions: <br />FORECASTING - The CoHort should collectively work on broad forecasting questions impacting <br />manufacturing. <br />rnc-r `7`r - The CoHort peer to peer meeting would be a great way to identify common <br />elements addressing Cost of Goods and ways to manage this issue. <br />TARRIFS - We need to understand how Tariffs impact Manufacturing. <br />LENDING RESOURCES - You may be or may not be in need of lending resources; but <br />understanding and having a lending process in place would serve our current or future plans. <br />The moving forward plan will be to introduce the top sets of items in the next number of <br />CoHort meetings. <br />
