  1. Target Industry Evaluation FLORIDA’S RESEARCH COAST ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES S B M & Moran, Stahl & Boyer Site Selection and Economic Development Consultants
  2. Topics for Discussion A brief “Economic Development 101.” Summary of the Target Industry Study for St. Lucie County. Marketing the Region. B S M & Open Dialog . . . Ask Questions at any Time. 1
  3. Local Economic Portfolio Resources (Real estate, labor, utilities, education/training, transportation, etc.) Level 1 - Primary Industries Employers that infuse money into the county from outside sources, such as: State/Federal Government Agriculture Manufacturing Tourism-Related Businesses Business Services (with outside clients) Regional Healthcare Operations Regional Retail Operations Level 2 - Business Support Services Provide support service to the primary industries located in the county Level 3 - Consumer Services Provide services to local residents (Retail, personal services, local gov’t) B S M & Consider: Quality/variety of jobs, size of tax base vs. demand for local services, and resource requirements vs. available resources. 2
  4. Economic Opportunities vs. Impacts B S M & 3
  5. Levels of Real Estate Readiness Level 1 - Developed site, new building needing finish or minor modifications. Level 2 - Developed site, building shell in place or existing building needing modest renovation. Level 3 - Developed site with virtual permitted building. Level 4 - Developed site ready for building construction. Level 5 - Undeveloped Shovel Ready site. Level 6 – Properly zoned but in hands of original owner. Level 7 - Land zoned agriculture but is to be zoned industrial or office/industrial. Building in Place LOW . . . . . . . . HIGH Developed Site B S M & Undeveloped Site 4
  6. The Old Adage on Real Estate . . . “If you build it*, they might come. But if you don’t build it, it’s a guarantee that, even if they do come, they won’t stay.” *Could mean a building or a site. B S M & 5
  7. How Does Economic Development Work? B S M & Some think it’s just money in . . . somehow jobs magically appear. 6
  8. Why Define Target Industries . . . Requires realistic evaluation of local situation. Aligns efforts with an overall strategy. Supports the setting of priorities. Helps build momentum . . . gets everyone “pullin’ together.” B S M & 7
  9. Key Elements of Analysis 1. Economic Opportunities With Favorable/Sustainable Potential Target Industry Opportunities 2. State/Regional Target Industries 3. Local Stakeholder Needs/Input 4. Local/Regional Industry Presence and Available Resources (Real Estate, Labor Skills, Education/Training, R&D, Utilities, Transportation Access and Quality of Life Attributes) B S M & 8
  10. Market Trends . . . Opportunities Overall Market Drivers/Trends Global Dynamics (Europe/Asia) Technology Trends Impacts From Recession World Unrest/Terrorism Sourcing/Logistics Strategies Government Policies Demographic Shifts Sustainability Cost of Energy Examples of Market Needs Categories Education Food/Nutrition Health Communications Entertainment Energy Transportation Defense/Security Opportunities Manufacturing Tourism Services Commerce B S M & Strategic Location With Access to Resources and Community Support 9
  11. Key Industry and Technology Trends Metal Alloys Rapidly Evolving Use of Materials Radical New Processes: 3D Printing (Additive vs. Subtractive Technology) Glass & Ceramics Polymers Composites Biomaterials Fibers Less energy, less waste, less time, more customized . . . B S M & 10
  12. Key Industry and Technology Trends . . . complex components with improved properties. B S M & 11
  13. Key Industry and Technology Trends Remote Monitoring, Analysis and Control Convergence of Functionality Calendar Clock/Watch/Timer Camera Newspaper E-Mail Phone/Voice Mail Maps/GPS Virtual Reality Software/Hardware Internet Access Music B S M & 12
  14. Key Industry and Technology Trends Solar Cell Road Pavement B S M & 13
  15. Reshoring of Manufacturing Again MADE IN THE USA B S M & 14
  16. Reshoring Defined The return of Components/Parts Final Assembly operations to the U.S. that serve the North American market. Opportunity:boost U.S. manufacturing activity by $20B. B S M & 15
  17. Why Reshoring is Taking Place Factors That Drive Businesses Back to the United States: Cost of fuel is nearly 4X what it was in 1995. Labor, real estate, energy and other costs in China continue to escalate. Supply chain inventory and pre-pay requirements add additional costs and cash flow issues. Reduced product life cycles . . . smaller runs. Variation in quality . . . unpredictable and costly. Increased use of technology . . . protection of patent rights. More opportunities for automation applications. Bring R&D, engineering and production closer together. New strategies to produce goods near markets served. B S M & 16
