"The manufacturing sector in many countries is in a state of transition. Growing in emerging economies; shrinking but becoming more productive in advanced economies. The new manufacturing giants with low wage economies tend to compete on cost, the established players prefer to move up the manufacturing value chain to compete on technology and innovation. Lean manufacturing techniques which control costs and improve quality are pervasive."
