ReshoreWV Technology is the digital backbone of our statewide reshoring initiative. Built on advanced data systems, AI/ML analytics, and real-time trade intelligence, this platform transforms complex global trade data into actionable insights for West Virginia businesses, policymakers, and investors.

Our technology fuels the 1,000 × 100 Strategy—securing 1,000 reshoring contracts that generate 100 jobs each. With 100,000 new jobs and $25B in additional manufacturing output over the next decade, ReshoreWV Technology ensures these wins are distributed across all 55 counties, driving sustainable and inclusive economic growth.

What Powers the Platform

Global Trade Intelligence

• Harmonized Tariff Schedules, Section 232/301 duties, IEEPA-based tariffs, de minimis elimination
• Import volumes, origin countries, and landed costs
• Profiles of top U.S. importers and sourcing networks
• Tracking of Executive Orders, retaliatory tariffs, and market shocks

West Virginia Industrial Capacity Data

• Mapping of SME capabilities and certifications
• Pent-Up Capacity Registry: idle machines, floor space, and ready workforce
• Workforce readiness data, wages, and training pipelines
• Infrastructure assets including interstates, rail, river ports, and logistics hubs

Policy & Incentive Signals

• State and federal grants, tax credits, and investment programs
• Economic development policies
• Higher-ed outputs: student proposals, feasibility studies, and incentive recommendations

Technology Architecture

• Data Ingestion & Integration, APIs and pipelines pull from federal databases, state registries, and university research.
• AI/ML Analytics, Predictive cost modeling: compares landed import costs vs. WV domestic costs, Classification: matches HS-coded products to WV SMEs, Optimization: ranks reshoring opportunities for ROI and job creation.
• Scenario Simulation, Tariff shocks, policy changes, and supply chain disruptions, Workforce and training capacity models, SME accelerator readiness scoring.
• User-Facing Tools such as WV Reshoring dashboards, Investor and business development packets, Academic portals for students and faculty.

AI & Machine Learning Applications

• Natural Language Processing – scans tariff rulings and trade law updates
• Predictive Analytics – forecasts reshoring ROI under multiple scenarios
• Reinforcement Learning – optimizes incentive design for job/output gains
• Knowledge Graphs – maps the relationships between importers, products, SMEs, and policies

This ensures continuous learning: as tariffs shift, SMEs grow, and student research expands, the platform adapts in real time.
