Manufacturers of Fabricated Metal Products Study Updated - October 2011!

Study Size: Sixteen states are examined in the analysis. These states include the top eight states in terms of value of shipments by the Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing subsector, the three states with the highest potential for wind power generation (Nebraska ranks third), and other states near Nebraska with which it typically competes for industrial location projects.

Advantages: Together, Nebraska's annual labor and energy costs for the model plant are $254,360, or 8.7 percent less than the average costs for the 15 alternative states. Conversely, the average labor and energy costs in the other 15 states are 9.6 percent more than the Nebraska labor and energy costs.
