Paperless Parts

We're halfway into 2025, and for across the United States, it's been a roller coaster so far. But no two shops are on the same exact ride.

That's why we surveyed 200 U.S.-based custom part manufacturers—from small job shops to multisite operations—to create a shared view of how the industry is navigating today's biggest challenges: economic uncertainty, , workforce constraints, pricing volatility, and more.

We compiled their responses in Paperless Parts' 2025 Manufacturing Industry Benchmark Report. Get a sneak peek at the responses below, and access the full free report here: https://www.paperlessparts.com/resources/2025-manufacturing-industry-benchmark-report/

If anything in the report hits close to home, drop a comment or send us a DM. We'd love to connect and see how we can help.
