Abstract
We describe certain of the outputs of a research project on competence development in manufacturing firm. We consider the results with particular reference to globalisation, agile manufacturing and the virtual enterprise and discuss their implications for the future shape of manufacturing. Our research enables us to comment on these three issues. and this paper assesses the current importance of competences associated with them and the likely rate of progress of each of them in the next few years.
