Manufacturing

Evidence-based analysis for the manufacturing sector

Free Trial

Manufacturing is a critical contributor to national prosperity and a key driver of economic growth. After a turbulent decade the sector finds itself in a stage of transition and shifting market dynamics. Facing disruptive innovation and increasing government regulation, manufacturers must embrace technological advancements, anticipate economic and geopolitical risks, and manage complex global supply chains to increase productivity and maintain competitiveness.

Oxford Economics has developed a range of services and techniques for analysing global macro and sector trends for the manufacturing sector, supported by our team of 250 economists and industry experts:

The world’s most widely used frameworks for macroeconomic and industry simulations, our economic and industry models cover 80 countries and more than 100 sectors and support the creation of custom forecasts and scenarios.

Reports that analyse industry trends, presenting a quarterly review of future market trends, developments, and key risks to 12 headline industries globally.

Analysis and commentary on latest economic events and data releases that might fuel investment speculation and influence commodity prices.

Bespoke primary research on the transformation of manufacturing, including the development of the Internet of Things and other emerging technologies, workforce issues, and global competitiveness, conducted by our Thought Leadership team.

Briefs and forecast databanks covering 200+ countries, 100+ sectors, and 7,000+ cities and regions from 1980 to 2050. All forecasts are are produced within a unified and regularly-updated forecasting system to ensure consistency.
