The Future of Manufacturing: A new era of opportunity and challenge
Professor Steve Evans, University of Cambridge

Scope
Foresight Future of Manufacturing Project
Objective has been to investigate changes and uncertainties facing UK manufacturing activities,
to 2050 where possible, to inform how the UK can create and capture future value.
Vince Cable is the sponsoring minister. Findings available for BIS to use to inform development of
future policy.

• 10% of UK economy (1973: 29%)
• Employs under 3m people (1966: 9m)
• Similar trends elsewhere
Manufacturing share of GDP 1990-2010
A recent context of historical shifts…

With areas of weak relative performance…
...and some areas of strong relative performance
Share of manufacturing exports in manufacturing output
• Strong total factor productivity
• Increasing proportion of output exported
• Expenditure on manufacturing R&D
• Levels of capital investment
• Falling share of global exports
Foresight Future of Manufacturing Project: 7th November 2013
5Share of manufacturing exports in manufacturing output
• Absolute value: 10% of GDP (£139 bn in 2012)
• Exports: 53% of UK exports in 2012 (£256 billion)
• R&D: 72-79% UK business R&D spend 2000-11
• Productivity: growth 2.3% p.a. (1980-2009) UK 0.7%
• Jobs: high skilled and well paid
• Resilience: provides resilience in face of recession
The sector makes powerful contributions to the UK economy

Changing nature of manufacturing
By 2050: Manufacturing will be a complex, value creating system. Emphasis not on production or services but on flexing business models and offerings to create value in new and interesting ways.
8
Technological change and uncertainty
By 2050: technology will drive a revolution…
• Incremental leaps forward (pervasive ICT; integration of sensors = big data; application of materials; sustainability)• Radical developments (biological & medical developments; additive)• Disruptive breakthroughs (unknown)
…changing how products are designed, offered and used by customers
9
Environmental change and uncertainty
By 2050: sustainability will no longer be optional…• Resources (materials, water, energy, land) • Population (3 billion more people) wealth / age • Climate change (weather events)• ‘Pricing the Environment’ • Standards • Consumer pull…business models will have to shift to reduce exposure to commodity shocks & exploit opportunities
10
Sociological change and uncertainty
By 2050: we will have seen jobless growth… • 170k fewer roles by 2020, no return to mass cuts - current employment levels just under 3 million • 800k roles to fill by 2020 (ageing population a factor) demand for professionals, ‘hybrid’ expertise, STEM• Potential for cognitive / physical enhancement?
…with strong demand for workers with ‘hybrid’ expertise as countries compete on quality

Employment
5 areas of long term shared interest emerged from workshops in Berlin, Washington DC and Singapore:
• Sustainability (emphasis on resource efficiency)• Education and skills• Automation• Big data• New models of distributed manufacturing
Interests highlight fascinating balances:
(1) Investment in automation versus jobs(2) Global versus local supply chains(3) Distributed versus traditional manufacturing

International perspectives on change and uncertainty
12Share of manufacturing exports in manufacturing output
• Services with products e.g. Rolls Royce
• Selling of technological ‘know how’ e.g. ARM
• Remanufacturing of products e.g. JCB / Caterpillar
Manufacturers will increasingly make use of a wider value chain to create revenue.
1. More than making a product and selling it

2. Faster, more responsive and closer to customers
• Mass personalisation of products on demand
• Distributed: big high-tech, modular, home, mobile
• Greater design freedom
• More digital connections along value chains

3. Exposed to new market opportunities
• Changes to personal wealth / ageing populations
• BRICs and the ‘Next 11’
• Continued global ‘fragmentation’ of the value chain
• Some ‘onshoring’

4. Increasingly dependent on highly skilled workers
• Strong demand for manufacturing workers
• A need to accommodate more older workers
• Importance of STEM qualifications
• Blending of technical & commercial ‘hybrid’ skills
• Potential for human enhancement

5. More sustainable
• Growing / urban populations raise resource demand
• Climate change and global supply chain vulnerability
• Volatility in price & availability of commodities
• Reuse, remanufacturing, recycling: circular economy

Future of manufacturing
• Lean & Clean: (eco)-efficiency• Never can say goodbye: closed loop• Make it anywhere: local making• Keeping in touch, experiments, selling service• Knowing me, knowing you: using big data• Kissing frogs: new collaborations• Slow making, provenance, high value
