Abstract
Bishop and Associates has just released a new six-chapter research report, The
Future of Electronics Manufacturing in North America - Impact on Connectors.
This new report profiles the North American electronics manufacturing industry
and its electronic connector market. Some elements of this report were several
years in the making, drawing on our analyst' s long experience in the
electronics industry, North America' s multiple phases of off-shoring,
outsourcing, and involvement in government/industry initiatives that have
attempted to address the globalization issue as it impacts the domestic
manufacturing market, yet strengthens North American OEM' s global
competitiveness.
The report' s foundation includes eight years of experience compiling the
Connector Roadmap with the International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative.
It also includes extensive experience in the industry, including NIST' s
Advanced Technology Program, the Department of Commerce and Census Bureau
data, IEEE National Innovation Forum, DARPA, and other U.S. competitiveness
initiatives.
Main Points of Interest
- Continuing trends in outsourcing and off-shoring.
- Growth in emerging markets, particularly China.
- Low-to-negative growth in some domestic markets (based on where equipment
is manufactured).
- Issues relating to domestic manufacturing infrastructure.
- Detailed connector industry forecasts and cyclical scenarios.
- Potential government and private sector actions.
This report is a snapshot of the huge, complex North American electronics
manufacturing market and the connector industry, which are operating in an
increasingly global marketplace, and insight into how we can strengthen North
American markets going forward. It is a non-agenda-driven analysis, which
points out areas of concern in manufacturing, and includes concerns about the
future of domestic design, which is linked to manufacturing.
The report should help those involved in the electronics industry better
understand these trends. Interested parties include OEM, EMS, ODM, electronic
component manufacturers, and specifically, connector suppliers.
This is also good information for the investment community, strategic
planners, government personnel, and managers and executives with interests in
the future of this strategically important industry.
The report includes detailed forecasts of North American, regional, and global
connector markets, with an emphasis on North America, China, and Asia-Pacific.
It details, as a strategic example, Taiwan' s transition from an upstart to an
electronics design and manufacturing powerhouse, to a country strategically
linked to outsourcing and electronic assembly in China. This is supported by
strong industry-government cooperation in the planning process, with a very
successful track record. Taiwan dominates several electronic product
categories, often behind-the-scenes for major OEMs.
