Manufacturing
We understand the ongoing issues that business leaders in the manufacturing industry face. Coping with supply chain disruption, fluctuating demand and the associated cashflow problems has become the norm, but improving productivity and staying on top of shifting workforce dynamics also remain front of mind. All of this needs to be carefully considered against a backdrop of increasing environmental pressures and ambitious net zero targets.
Manufacturing expertise is provided by our industry team, who provide informed operational and financial advice that helps you to build supply chain resilience, meet your growth objectives, manage risk, invest and innovate.
We are committed to supporting the UK’s manufacturing sector and regularly partner with Make UK, the UK’s largest manufacturing membership association, to influence government policy and ensure that the manufacturing sector’s needs are not forgotten. With extensive experience spanning the entire manufacturing sector, we offer specialised expertise in automotive manufacturing, aerospace and defence, and food and drink manufacturing.
In addition, many of our manufacturing clients have a global presence and our team regularly draws on the knowledge of our RSM colleagues in over 120 countries.
Organisations we are proud to be members of include:
Manufacturing Investment Monitor
