Sources and methods
The news coverage on stampandpress is compiled from published feeds and indexes of specialist trade publications, business newswires, and official regulatory filings. These sources are selected for their consistent reporting on the core subjects of the site: manufacturing processes on the factory floor and announcements of factory investment. The automated systems monitor these feeds for relevant stories across defined sectors such as automation, workforce, and equipment markets. Each identified story is then processed to create a concise summary.
Every news story is rewritten with automated assistance to extract the core factual developments, focusing on the what, where, and when of an event or announcement. The original source publication is clearly credited for each story. In cases where a specific fact, such as a financial figure or a technical claim, appears in only one publication, it is included but the summary will note its source as a single report. This approach allows stampandpress to present a broad view of industry developments while maintaining transparency about the provenance of its information.
The reference pages on stampandpress, covering entities like factory investment projects, processes, and sectors, are built differently. They are constructed from stable, verified facts that recur across multiple reports and official sources over time. Each reference page centres on a factual table containing key data points, accompanied by a credited photograph where available. These pages are intended as neutral starting points for understanding a topic, distilling consensus information rather than reporting immediate news.
Coverage is refreshed continuously. The news section is updated throughout each day as new source material is published and processed. The reference pages are reviewed and refreshed on a scheduled basis, typically monthly, to incorporate new, stable information and ensure their ongoing accuracy. This combination of daily news aggregation and periodically updated reference material allows stampandpress to serve as a current and factual resource for the North American manufacturing landscape.
