Research & Publications

Industrial strength grows through choices made at many levels, from production processes and enterprise decisions to the arrangements connecting manufacturers, suppliers, customers, capital, and institutions.

AICP's research and publications explore those relationships, examine practical ways of improving industrial performance, and develop new possibilities for American industry. The work includes AICP field reports, original investigations, and selected Talbot West research that helps illuminate the questions we're pursuing.

AICP Field Reports

The first AICP field reports are in development. Publications will appear here when released.

Selected Talbot West Thinking

These publications were developed and published by Talbot West. AICP features them because they illuminate important aspects of industrial and organizational capability. Their original authorship and canonical URLs remain unchanged.

Selected Talbot West research will be featured here.
