Summary of Aerospace Manufacturing Attractiveness Rankings

Core Content

The 2017 Aerospace Manufacturing Attractiveness Rankings by PwC evaluate the attractiveness of countries and U.S. states for aerospace manufacturing based on a weighted score across multiple categories. The rankings aim to assist aerospace companies in improving supply chains, controlling costs, and planning for future growth by providing insights into key factors like labor, infrastructure, industry, economy, cost, tax policy, and geopolitical risk.

Main Points

Global Rankings: The United States ranked first, followed by Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada. New entrants to the top ten include Australia, Taiwan, and Denmark, while Singapore, the Netherlands, and France dropped out.
U.S. Rankings: The U.S. has a strong aerospace industry, with 1,710 manufacturing companies and $212 billion in annual revenue. It excels in Industry, Labor, and Infrastructure but lags in Tax Policy.
Switzerland: Improved its ranking to second place, showing strong performance in Geopolitical Risk, Economy, and Labor. It hosts major aerospace firms like RUAG and Pilatus.
United Kingdom: Slipped to third place due to declines in Cost and Economy categories, possibly influenced by Brexit uncertainties. The UK still has significant industry revenue and investment.
Australia: Ranked fourth overall, showing improvement from last year. It benefits from low geopolitical risk, a strong education system, and key partnerships with Boeing and Airbus.
Canada: Maintained fifth place despite a two-place drop. It has a robust aerospace sector with 440 companies and notable firms like Bombardier and United Technologies.
State Rankings: Georgia, Michigan, and Arizona led the U.S. state rankings. North Carolina reentered the top ten, while Florida and others fell due to various factors.
Georgia: Improved to first place, with strong industry presence and growth in aerospace exports. It is a hub for defense and commercial aerospace.
Michigan: Rose to second place, driven by strong performance in Economy, Infrastructure, and Cost categories. The state is investing in additive manufacturing and battery logistics.
Arizona: Maintained its attractiveness despite a two-place drop, with an ideal climate and strong infrastructure.
North Carolina: Jumped 14 places to fourth, benefiting from low labor costs, a strong aerospace workforce, and recent investments.
Virginia and New York: Entered the top ten for the first time in four years, with Virginia excelling in Labor and Industry and New York in Labor, Industry, and Economy.
Ranking Declines: Washington, Indiana, Utah, and Missouri dropped out of the top ten. Florida fell due to lower rankings in Cost and Labor.
Methodology: The rankings use a weighted score across seven categories (Cost, Labor, Infrastructure, Industry, Geopolitical Risk, Economy, Tax Policy). Country rankings use 32 measures from seven data sources, while state rankings use 34 measures from ten sources. The methodology was refined to improve the comparison between countries and states.
Education and Workforce: Education is a critical factor in both country and state rankings. A skilled, technology-savvy, and diverse workforce is essential for future competitiveness.
Data Sources: The rankings are based on data from seven public and private sources, including IHS, S&P, Germanwatch, and the World Economic Forum. PwC’s “Paying Taxes 2017” report provided detailed tax policy data.
Measure Weights: Each category has specific weights. For example, Cost categories (Opex/Sales, Capex/Sales, Trend in Opex, Trend in Capex, Labor Cost, and Labor Productivity) each have a weight of 17% or 22%, while Labor categories have varying weights.

Key Information

Top 10 Countries: United States (1), Switzerland (2), United Kingdom (3), Australia (4), Canada (5), Taiwan (6), Hong Kong (7), Japan (8), Denmark (9), Germany (10).
