Abstract
![CDATA[Characterising Australia’s manufacturing sector as in decline focuses on a deficit model of the industry, or at least over emphasises the evidence that points to a sector in decline. In contrast, this paper proposes an alternative approach that considers manufacturing in terms of advanced manufacturing, and the transition required to achieve that. By drawing on manufacturing principles and considerations of the evolution of manufacturing, the paper proposes an approach for the sector that concentrates on a development model. This draws on a synthesis of the technological, commercial and managerial skills appropriate for advanced manufacturing, offering an approach that engenders a trajectory towards a more viable future for manufacturing in Australia.]]
