Rehabilitation and growing of the Tool, Die & Mould-making Industry in South Africa

History

of the TDM Sector in SA

% Annual turnover 1% Global EU 4,6% SA Sector ratio Capacity (increasing imports from China and others) Mining & other Automotive (7 OEMs) 25% 35% Packaging & consumer goods 40% BMW Toyota Nissan Volkswagen General Motors Mercedes Benz Ford Motor company 1990 2010 80% Loss In Local Tooling Manufacturing Capacity

Distress Drivers for the Sector in SA

Skills Erosion & Job losses Technology Stagnation

• Critical shortage of Designers, Artisans, Engineers • and Project Managers in the sector.

• Radical changes in Skills Value Chain.

• Lack of recapitalization • Lack of focused R&D.

Loss of Capacity

• Industry demand growing, Enterprise quantity declining

Loss of Competitiveness

• China, India, EU increased pressure

BBBEE

• Absence of BBBEE transformation in TDM industry

Growing trade deficit

• Increasing imports – decreasing exports

Economic Impact of the Tooling Sector in SA

• The tooling sector can be classified as a sub-sector under the “Metal Fabrication, capital equipment and transport equipment” sector • High employment and growth multipliers • Strong backward linkages

National Intervention in the TDM Sector

• The Tooling Initiatives across SA is guided by the intervention programmes set by the National Tooling Initiative(NTI) which has been incorporated into the DTI’s Industrial Policy Action Plan – IPAP(2013 2016) as a key action programme for Capital Equipment and Allied Services.

Business Capacity Expansion

• Tooling Incentive Scheme • Recommended amendments to the current investment incentive structure of the Automotive Production and Development Programme (APDP) and the Automotive Investment Scheme(AIS) • AIS o o Current capital investment incentive structure ranges from 20% to 30% It is proposed that this incentive is offered to automotive tooling at a 50% standard rate • APDP o The light vehicle APDP offer's local value addition incentives in the form of a Production Incentive applied for via a Production Rebate Credit Certificate o It is proposed that for tooling local value addition, the benefits apply at the vulnerable products level to provide a significant boost to tooling localization.

Rand value of imported automotive tooling used for calculations are as follows,

• •

Historic average of R 2, 227 billion per annum Forecasted value of R 4 billion per annum

Historic average (R2 227 million) Forecast (R4 000 million)

Additional local value added Additional AIS for Local tooling R 534 000 000 (R 107 000 000) R 960 000 000 (R 192 000 000) Production incentive

Benefit to SA economy

Benefit as a % of VA Extra cost to Govt. for VP incentives per annum (R 75 000 000)

R 353 000 000
