Manufacturer Membership.

For manufacturing companies of any size.

  • Access to manufacturer-only conversations. Confidential discussions with peers about operational challenges, shared pain points, and practical solutions.
  • Timely, relevant information on issues that impact operations. Updates on regional projects, infrastructure changes, workforce programs, and community initiatives that matter specifically to manufacturers.
  • A clear channel to share input when CRMA gathers industry feedback. When partners in the region need insight from manufacturers, members help shape that input. It’s not political advocacy. It’s a structured way for manufacturers to be heard.
  • Opportunities to help guide CRMA’s focus areas. Through ongoing conversations, member feedback directly influences what CRMA prioritizes across workforce, supply chain, infrastructure, and EHS.
  • Member-exclusive sponsorship opportunities. Access to sponsorship openings and event visibility options that are only available to CRMA members.

Associate Membership.

For suppliers, service providers, consultants, and partners who support manufacturers.

  • Direct connection to manufacturers. Meaningful access to the companies they serve through events, roundtables, and industry conversations.
  • Opportunities to share expertise. Panels, lunch and learns, and other moments where associates can contribute knowledge in a helpful, non-salesy way.
  • Member-exclusive sponsorship opportunities. Sponsorship and visibility options reserved only for CRMA members.
  • Timely industry information. Updates that help associates stay aware of what manufacturers in the region are facing so they can better support them.
