Manufacturing
sector
Merely production
The process of physical or
chemical transformation of
materials, substances or
components into new products.
Current
Definition
The current definition of manufacturing
Based on the UK SIC Code
2007, the manufacturing
sector (sector C) is divided
into 24 divisions
UK SIC Code 2007 :
Standard industrial classification of economic activities 2007
Manufacturing SIC codes
In reality, production is often only one aspect of the manufacturing process.
The whole value chain also includes -
Design, logistics and service activities.
The value chain of manufacturing
Extended Definition of Manufacturing
Design-Make-Support framework
Traditional manufacturing business strategies based around the sale and production/making of a particular product.
Manufacturing involving the sale andproduction/making of a productcombines with associated design andsupport activities.
To measure manufacturing-related design-make-support
activities across all economic industry and develop a new
index for manufacturing growth
Focus on: Design- make- support

ships& boats
Repair and installation also has a significant growth
Textile & leather goods and
Pharmaceutical shows an obvious
decline
Ships&boats and Aircraft shows the highest growth
EMGi across all divisions
Top 5 inhibitors are strong pound, weak overseas demand, high interest rate, recession in the country and global economic slowdown
UK Manufacturing includes companies providing design, make and support activities
UK Manufacturing economic contribution is currently under valued by around £50 billion per year
