4 Country Rankings Brazil s Decline Adding To BRIC Breakdown The long-awaited promise of the BRIC countries as emerging manufacturing goliaths continues to unravel in the face of sharp declines in competitiveness India Brazil Russia Brazil joins Russia in a steep decline in the global competitiveness ranking as economic and socio-political instability takes its toll Brazil and India lag advanced global economies on talent, innovation policy & infrastructure, legal/regulatory environment, and physical infrastructure However, some hope remains for India to rejoin China in the top five manufacturing nations in the next five years, salvaging half of the original BRIC potential 4 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC.

5 And Search Begins For A New Low-Cost Center As China begins to pivot toward a higher value manufacturing paradigm to align with other innovation-oriented markets, where s the New China? Rapidly rising wages in China present opportunities for other emerging nations to be competitive on cost of labor and materials India, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Indonesia are emerging as alternate lowcost destinations This presents significant opportunities and challenges for companies currently operating in China that depend on a lower cost base Country India Vietnam Malaysia Indonesia Future Rank Current Rank Rank Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC.

6 While Two Regional Pillars of Strength Emerge North America and Asia-Pacific countries establishing dominant positions as regional manufacturing centers All three North American nations are in the top ten current and future rankings for manufacturing competitiveness North America Six countries in the Asia-Pacific region feature in the top ten for current or future competitiveness United States Canada Mexico Both China and India currently provide a cost competitive manufacturing advantage, but are also leading in number of STEM graduates going forward Asia-Pacific China Japan South Korea South Korea and Japan also excel in developing critical talent indicators such as concentration of researchers and patents India Singapore Taiwan 6 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC.

7 Putting The Squeeze On European Countries Most European nations expected to slip in the overall competitiveness rankings in the next five years European Country Current Rank Future Rank Germany 3 3 United Kingdom 6 8 Switzerland Sweden Poland Turkey Netherlands France Czech Republic Finland Spain Belgium Italy Ireland Romania Portugal Greece Germany and the UK are the only European nations forecast to remain in the top ten global manufacturing markets going forward In fact, only two European countries (Czech Republic and Romania) are expected to show any improvement in their relative rank position over the next five years, leaving most of the region vulnerable to global competitive pressures 7 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC.

8 Meanwhile, It s Back To The Future At The Top Traditional manufacturing powerhouses of the 1980 s are back atop the global rankings by focusing on core competitiveness attributes, including talent #1 # Future #1 #1 #2 #2 #3 #3 #4 #1 #2 #3 #4 Shift to higher value, advanced manufacturing forms a new battleground for global competitiveness going forward US is leading the way having surpassed Germany and closed the gap to China over the last five years #6 #8 #6 #8 A resurgence from the UK results in a top ten position going into the next five years #17 #10 #15 Executives ranked US, Germany, & Japan highly competitive in Talent, Innovation, Legal/Regulatory Environment, and Physical Infrastructure key drivers of global manufacturing competitiveness 8 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC.

9 What Drives Manufacturing Competitiveness? For the 2016 Index, Global CEOs point to talent (again), cost competitiveness, and workforce productivity as the top three drivers of manufacturing competitiveness 1 Talent Market Forces 7 Physical Infrastructure Cost Competitiveness Workforce Productivity Supplier Network Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Economic, Trade, Financial & Tax System Innovation Policy & Infrastructure Energy Policy 5 Legal & Regulatory System 11 Local Market Attractiveness 6 Educational Infrastructure Government Forces 12 Healthcare System 9 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC. All rights reserved.

10 Focus On Talent Is Critical Going Forward Consistently identified as the top driver of manufacturing competitiveness, talent is a significant pain point, specifically for advanced technology companies The aging of engineering and manufacturing workforces, without appropriate knowledge transfer, is exacerbating a skills shortage not only in the US but also in other developed and developing nations - Executive Interviewee US retains a leadership position in research, technology and innovation having created a strong foundation over the last century that includes an educational system that fosters creative thinking, superior talent, and world-class universities but, the R&D competitiveness gap is narrowing rapidly as countries like China have been aggressive in attracting and nurturing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) talent resulting in a significant challenge in the form of a talent shortage and widening skills gap over the next decade 10 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC. All rights reserved.

11 Challenges, Sure But, Also Opportunities A host of issues face US manufacturing companies looking to spur growth through innovation going forward, the question is how to capitalize while avoiding pitfalls Challenges Challenges faced by US companies include: a significant talent shortage and widening skills gap uneven and weak foreign market conditions and business environments coping with weak Intellectual Property (IP) laws and behavior globally the high cost and complexity of compliance in an uncertain US regulatory environment Opportunities Long-term global trends that will help provide opportunities for US companies to spur growth and innovation, include: an expanding middle class and rapid urbanization across Asia continued and plentiful low cost energy in North America attractive demographics across North America increased global demand for commercial aircraft the rapid technological advances in the auto industry (e.g., autonomous vehicles) increased output in the US chemicals and industrial machinery sectors 11 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC.

12 Industry Innovation Playbook In order to grow and succeed in the highly competitive global innovation space, companies can follow some overarching themes for strategy development 1. Think like a venture capitalist and take best practices from successful start-ups 2. Take a portfolio approach to innovation projects and investments 3. Adopt a risk-tolerant mentality to allow some of the higher risk, higher reward efforts to proceed 4. Operate outside of traditional walls to take advantage of collaboration opportunities 5. Understand there is no singular solution or path to achieve innovation success 6. Have a strategic focus regarding resource allocation, alignment and activities as well as incentives 7. Be explicit about innovation ambitions and goals and organize accordingly 8. Perseverance pays: Fear of failure or failure to bounce back when met with failure will relegate an organization to a role as followers 9. Look beyond product innovation to transform other elements of your business system. 10. Diagnose your capabilities and be realistic about them; address as required 12 Deloitte and US Council on Competitiveness I 2016 Global Manufacturing Competitiveness Index Copyright 2015 Deloitte Development LLC.
