Initiatives

Manufacturing Performance Assessment

The right initiative depends on where your operation stands today. Through the Manufacturing Performance Assessment, we identify the areas that are limiting performance and connect them to the solutions that will drive the most impact, whether that is workforce, process improvement, or operational strategy.

Executive and Human Resources Roundtables

Facilitator-led roundtables built for manufacturing leaders who want to work through real challenges with peers who get it. These small group sessions focus on the issues that matter most right now, from workforce and retention to performance and growth.

Leave with clear perspective, practical ideas, and actions you can take back to your team.

Kansas Manufacturing Workforce Initiative

The Kansas Manufacturing Workforce Initiative is a regional effort led by Kansas Manufacturing Solutions to strengthen the workforce across Kansas and the Kansas City region. Supported by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, it focuses on helping manufacturers build stronger teams, improve retention, and develop leadership through practical, real-world solutions that support long-term growth.

Experts

KMS is looking to expand our Expert delivery team.

Experts deliver high-quality, market-driven, cost-effective services to Kansas manufacturing customers.  There are solutions that KMS cannot provide using internal resources. We contract with Experts to fill those gaps where manufacturers have needs.

KMS assumes the responsibility of vetting the Expert, training about the KMS way, and ensures the Expert has the tools to support the needs of Kansas manufacturers.
