1. Introduction
Definition
Engineering refers to the branch of science and technology primarily
concerned with the design, manufacture and use of components, machines
and structures. Assembly is the process of combining manufactured parts
using advanced processes to form a completed product of higher value.
Productivity Transition Aims
Sector Overview
Engineering & Assembly is responsible for a workforce of almost 1 million people in
England employed across 62,000 VAT-registered businesses. The sector was worth
an estimated £69.1 billion in 2017, reporting consistent annual growth since 2013.
Figure 1 illustrates the steady rise in the ‘real’ adjusted value (at 2016 prices) of the
Engineering & Assembly sector for England since 2009. Locally, the sector accounts
for over 25,000 jobs and represents 6.1% of total employment across the Humber
sub-region. Only Lancashire LEP (6.7%) and the North East LEP (6.4%) have a
greater concentration of employment within this sector across the Northern
Powerhouse.

The local definition of ‘Engineering & Assembly’ for the purposes of the Humber Local
Industry Strategy (LIS) is provided in Appendix A and includes the less energy-intensive
production processes within the manufacturing sector. The manufacture of wood; furniture;
metal products; electrical equipment; machinery; motor vehicles and transport equipment
are broadly included within this classification, which collectively are generally better
represented in the north of England compared to the national average.
Comparative advantage
The Humber sub-region demonstrates significant overall strength in the Engineering &
Assembly sector based on employment base. A definition used for Location Quotients
(LQ) in this report is included in Appendix B.

Employment in the Engineering & Assembly sector is most strongly represented in the
East Riding of Yorkshire and Kingston upon Hull. Each local authority has individual
specialisms in specific industries, but collectively over one-fifth of total employment in the
sector (21.6%) across the region is located within the Humber sub-region.

2. A Framework for
Identifying Growth
Industries in the Sector
This section introduces a simple framework to analyse the relationship between
employment change and sector specialisms (quantified as a Location Quotient, LQ) within
Engineering & Assembly, which accounts for 25,000 jobs across the Humber. Each
industry within the sector is categorised as one of four types in Figure 5 below.
Figure 5: Shift in employment and specialisms across the Humber (2010-2017)
Source: Derived from Humber LIS sector definition and Business Register and Employment Survey (BRES), 2017
Engineering & Assembly Chapter

The table below sets out a definition to determine growth and mature industries within the
sector.
Quadrant (category) Definition
Shrinking LQ and decreasing
employment
Fall in employment by at least 1.0% of
sector
Shrinking LQ and increasing employment Over 0.75 LQ;
Total employment at least 1.0% of sector Growing LQ and decreasing employment
Growing LQ and growing employment Rise in employment by at least 1.0% of
sector
This definition was applied to employment statistics published by the Office for National
Statistics (ONS) in the Business Register and Employment Survey (BRES) to identify the
industries in Figure 6 below. Collectively these ‘mature’ and ‘growth’ industries account for
two-thirds of employment within the Engineering & Assembly sector.

Source: Derived from Humber LIS sector definition and Business Register and Employment Survey (BRES), 2017
Growth engineering sectors account for an additional 2,630 jobs across the Humber in
2017 compared to 2010, which represents growth of 37.4% over the period. The
manufacture of wood products (16) and engines & turbines (28.11) in particular have
bucked the national trend, supporting a further 2,600 jobs.
Conversely, the manufacture of motor vehicles reported a minor decrease in employment
compared to strong growth nationally (up to 2017), though it should be noted that this
definition accounts for the caravan industry locally and tends to exhibit vastly different
characteristics from the motor industry overall.

5. Labour Market
A regional scan of jobs advertised in the Humber from February 2018 to February 2019
revealed that over 46,500 jobs were advertised in the area. Of these advertised roles, five
key areas have been identified with links to the engineering and assembly sector, as
shown in the table below.
Figure 14: Regional scan of job roles advertised linked to engineering and assembly sector
Job role advertised Number of jobs listed
Managers and proprietors in other services 850
Engineering technicians 774
Science, engineering and production technicians 655
Engineering professionals 461
Production managers and directors in manufacturing 455
Source: Labour Insight, February 2019
Within the 2,800 engineering jobs advertised in the Humber area, mechanical engineer is
the most commonly advertised with over 400 postings. Other relevant categories of role
include maintenance, repair and installation, though the majority of jobs posted within this
category are linked to automotive services. However, 473 maintenance technicians were
advertised, linking to the sector.
Log On Move On (LOMO) is a portal for 14 to 16 year olds in education institutions to
access and apply for further education courses. When considered in the context of
engineering and assembly, the system suggests that there were 27 providers, offering 221
courses. The portal picked up 453 applicants to these courses, however, applicants can
apply for courses in a number of different way and as a consequence the result this is not
an accurate reflection of application numbers. Additionally, the system covers only the
north bank authorities of Hull and East Riding and not all schools in these areas use the
system. However, this information can begin to shape understanding of skills provision in
the sector.
The three top courses for applications were a level 3 engineering course at Hull College,
BTEC level 3 extended diploma in engineering at Wilberforce College and level 2
certificate in engineering at Hull College. The courses that generate the greatest interest
within the sector through LOMO are also Hull based with two qualifications in engineering
and one in electrical maintenance. However, this does not prove that take-up of these
courses is sufficient to meet the demands of the industry.

Sector Overview
Metal fabrication is the process used to shape metal into components or end products.
This is achieved using a range of techniques including reduction and shaping processes,
welding and machining. Fabrication projects often require multiple steps even to produce
relatively simple products.4
4 Value Line, industrial overview: metal fabricating.
Engineering & Assembly Chapter
15
The manufacture of fabricated metal products was worth an estimated £17.5 billion to the
UK economy in 2017
Metal fabrication primarily falls into three categories:
Commercial: goods designed for use by consumers such as appliances and cars.
Industrial: components that are used in other equipment, which may in turn become
commercial products.
Structural: metalworking that produces the components used in the building
process.5
The metal fabrication process often involves three broad steps starting with design,
followed by fabrication of the required parts, and completed with finishing and assembly.
Many companies in the sector use Computer Aided Design (CAD) and/or Computer Aided
Manufacturing (CAM) software during the design process, in addition to CNC tools
(Computerised Numerical Controls) for the fabrication stage.6
The versatility of the tools and processes used in metal fabrication result in it being applied
across a wide range of industries, including many that strongly represented across the
Humber. •
Aerospace;
Agricultural machinery;
Automotive;
Construction
Medical equipment;
Original equipment manufacturers;
Recreational vehicles;
Renewable energy.
The sector is characterised by an overrepresentation of micro-sized businesses that may
only offer a limited range of services to meet demand within the broader supply chain.
Research conducted across the Humber suggests that medium-sized businesses tend to
add scale by offering dedicated services in each of the three key stages of the metal
fabrication process, yet specialising within a defined range of industries.
Market trends
The value of the metal fabrication industry has grown annually since 2010 across the
Yorkshire & Humber region by £546 million (42.6%) to be worth an estimated total of £1.8
billion in 2017.
Information Technology is playing an increasingly critical role on the metal fabrication
industry. Outdated shop equipment and ICT hardware and software limit business agility to
adapt to shifting customer expectations and their flexibility to handle new materials.

Manufacture of motor vehicles & trailers
65 VAT-registered businesses, 3,000 jobs, Humber LQ 1.42
Strong representation in: Kingston upon Hull; East Riding of Yorkshire
Specialisms:
Trailers & semi-trailers
Caravans
Sector overview
The Manufacture of motor vehicles and trailers in the Humber primarily focuses on the
production of trailer caravans, static caravans, holiday homes and motor homes. The
caravan industry is especially prevalent in the East Riding of Yorkshire.
Caravans are produced through modular building techniques, using materials such as
wood, plastic and interior furnishings.
The caravan industry is worth £6bn per year to the UK economy. The national caravan &
motorhome industry employs over 100,000 people, and the sector has 1.7 million
customers. 18
The Caravan Club leisure vehicle survey found that the caravan industry is highly
concentrated. For example, in the production of motorhomes, 10 manufacturers, represent
75% of the market. 19
Market trends
Three main market trends can be identified in relation to the caravan sector.
1. Growing market
The increasing number of ‘staycations’ in the UK and a shift to low-fuss low-cost holidays
that allow customers easily access to nature have assisted the caravan industry. 20
2. Changing demographic
The caravan market is widening beyond its traditional audience. Using innovative designs
and creating simple, affordable but luxurious holidays, the market is capturing a younger
urban demographic by offering a high quality escape to the country. Additionally, the core
market for the sector is an aging demographic encouraging more accessible designs.21

3. Abundance of high quality used stock
The consistent improvement of all types of product in the caravan sector since it’s
popularisation in the 1960’s has created significant quality in the market. Static caravans,
for example, have central heating, double glazing and Wifi. They are as advanced as
many people’s homes. As a result, there is a reduced incentive to purchase new caravans
because the second hand market is so strong.22
Based on broad industrial research, innovation in the sector can be grouped as:
1. Aerodynamics
Designs of touring caravans and motor homes are becoming increasingly light and
aerodynamic, increasing fuel efficiency and making towing easier.
2. Building methods
Building methods are constantly being updated. Caravans are designed to be fully
integrated with their chassis and lightweight, high quality building materials and techniques
improve the products.
3. Design
Caravan design is adjusting and changing to meet the needs of its core market. Easier
access, simple to use controls and integrated technologies meet the changing needs of
the market.
4. Future of modular
The growth of modular buildings, often in the form of holiday lodges, hotels and offices is
an expanding area of innovation for the sector. This is especially significant, as the sector
and the Swift Group, Willerby Homes and ABI (UK) already targeting this growing market.
What are businesses doing locally?

Manufacture of furniture 85 VAT-registered businesses, 5,000 jobs, Humber LQ 4.37 Strong representation in: East Riding of Yorkshire; North Lincolnshire Specialisms:
Office & shop furniture
Kitchen furniture
Other furniture
Sector overview
The manufacture of furniture is a broad sector, mainly using metal, wood, plastic and
glass. The end use of produces is spilt into residential and commercial. Residential can
include kitchen and dining, living rooms, bedrooms and outdoor. Commercial includes
offices, shops and hotels.27
As a result the sector is varied and contains many sub-sectors.
The furniture industry is has no traditional regional home.28 The Humber produces a cross
section of the sector, with examples of kitchens, office and domestic furniture.
Market trends
There is a growing trend in renting and smaller houses. This drives a market
demand for smaller, more versatile and affordable furniture.29
The domestication of institutions such as offices and hospitals is driving the growth
of furniture use in these settings. Additionally, the growth in home working and
telecommuting is encouraging sales of office furniture in domestic settings.30
As populations grow in the UK and beyond, the number of homes and residential
properties increases. This drives growth for the sector.31
There is a significant divide between the market demand from the older generation,
requiring high quality ergonomic designs, and younger customers. Younger
customers prefer versatile, affordable and multi-purpose furniture. There is also an
increasing demand for sustainably sources and fair-trade products. 32

2. Internet of Things (IoT)
The ‘internet of things’ is an area of innovation in this sector. Kitchens that can be
controlled from an app, or furniture that monitors the wellbeing of its user.
3. Sustainability
The finite resources of the planet are encouraging companies to think innovatively about
the sources of their materials and the use of waste products.
4. Augmented Reality
Augmented reality allows customers to see furniture in a space before it is purchased,
allowing the user to better visualise a product before purchasing it.

APPENDIX B: Definition of Location Quotients
The definition of a Location Quotient used in this report is taken from EMSI, a Labour
Market Analytics company dedicated to improving the understanding of economic growth
and prosperity.
A location quotient (which is usually abbreviated to LQ) is essentially a measure of
concentration. England has been assigned an LQ of 1.0 and compares other regions to
that constant. So if a particular industry has an LQ of <1.0 in a region, it means that
industry has a low concentration in that region compared to England as a whole. In other
words, the region is below average. An LQ of >1.0 means that the industry has a high
concentration in the region.39
