Abstract
Introduction
Scope & Methodology
This is the tenth edition of the European Electronic Manufacturing Services
Industry report (previously titled the Profile of the European Contract
Electronic Assembly Industry) and updates the ninth edition, which was
published in August 2009. Although building on the database of information
which has been gathered since the publication of the first edition in 1993 the
new report has been fully revised with greater emphasis being placed on
analyzing the EMS providers and the key trends which will impact the industry
in the period to 2015.
As in the previous reports, EMS is defined as electronic manufacturing offered
as a service to other companies. It does not include the in-house activities
of companies, which also provide an EMS service. The production of the printed
circuit board is to some extent included, since some EMS companies have
acquired PCB production capabilities and all are often involved in the design
aspects of the PCB layout when offering design services as part of the EMS
activity.
The generation of the market numbers has been completed using both a ' bottom
up' approach where details of EMS companies have been accumulated from all
sizes of companies, and a ' top down' view of published data from a variety of
sources. Statistical information which was obtained from government
departments, trade associations, company annual reports and various other
publications, and in particular the Yearbook of World Electronics Data, was
combined with data obtained from individual companies, to evaluate the state
of the market and future developments. The previous report along with data
from RER' s database were used as a base point in evaluating market
developments during interviews with key personnel of a cross-section of EMS
companies.
Further information was obtained by Questionnaires in personal and telephone
interviews. Forward looking forecasts are constructed from the last full
reported year (2010) and include known information to date on EMS company
activities such as collaborations, mergers, acquisitions and closures. These
forecasts also include information from EMS and other companies on their
expectations for growth in the coming years.
For sales to individual sectors such as computer, communications, mobile etc,
we have used information from the companies themselves either in the main from
published accounts or from known information about plant specialization,
number of employees etc.
Annual reports, company brochures and corporate literature were collected from
over 200+ EMS companies. Where information of a confidential nature was
obtained, this was used solely to evaluate market trends in product and
end-user sectors. In addition a further 500 plus companies, primarily the
smaller national EMS providers, were checked for the directory.
The consultants also visited relevant trade shows including Productronica 2009
and Electronica 2010 in Munich; the UK-based NEW Electronics exhibition in
2010 and 2011 and SMT & Hybrid 2010 and 2011 in Nurnberg, Germany.
Where applicable local currencies have been converted to Euro values. The
forecasts assume constant Euro values. The Euro values used in the report are
given in the Appendix.
Original Design Manufacturers (ODM) and Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS)
The key differentiator between the two types of organisations is that ODM' s
own intellectual property as well as providing electronic manufacturing
services. The EMS is considered to only provide the manufacturing services. In
Asia, there are large manufacturing services who also own intellectual
property in the products that are sold as branded products by the OEM. Whilst
there are companies in Europe that do offer the ODM service and state that ODM
sales have been made, it is frequently not separated from the overall sales in
Europe in its published form.
Given the difficulty in separating out specific ODM sales data, we have
incorporated this within the total EMS sales. From the research we would
estimate that the total ODM element is approximately 5-10% of the total EMS
values and mainly within the top 20 companies.
