Pipeline analysis – calculating demand How do we find out what is happening in construction?  The project database (lists planning applications)  Project data run through the CITB Labour Forecasting Tool  Review mandated requirements (e.g. certification & competence schemes, card schemes)

EAST MIDLANDS D2N2 & the East Midlands East Midlands region  Employment forecast data  From the CSN (January 2016) D2N2 Region  48% of the total workforce of the East Midlands region  Extrapolate 48% of East Midlands to fill gaps in Glenigan data  Glenigan = £250k+ projects listed by local authorities Neighbouring populations  Workers move in and out D2N2

East Midlands = 164,000 construction workers  Travel 23 miles to work (average)  74% live in the East Midlands  38% have 20+ years’ experience  64% have 10+ years’ experience 79,400 construction workers in D2N2 (48% of East Midlands) = 7% of total employment Supply The construction workforceD2N2 Training 198,000 learners in FE (all sectors) 61 construction training providers Construction & building services training  8,900 learning aims (6.6% of total) The main colleges deliver 60% of all FE construction training  New College Nottingham  West Nottinghamshire College  Derby College  Central College Nottingham  Chesterfield College 8,600 construction companies  92.9% employ <10 people  0.1% employ >250 people

Cross-sector occupations Construction -specific occupations specific Demand & supply Gap Analysis Architects (290%)  79,400 construction workers across all construction sectors [2015]  Peak demand [Nov16] = 118% of 2015 employment  Average monthly demand [2016] = 75% of 2015 employment Recruitment & development plan Logistical operators (103%) Labourers (109%) Construction trade supervisors (135%) Roofers (145%)Scaffolders (259%) Shortfalls expected Non-construction operatives (137%) Average demand for 2016 v 2015

Gap analysis Potential training capacity  Carpentry and joinery  Bricklaying  Plastering  Painting and decorating Starters is roughly equal to applications suggesting that demand is limited. Potential shortfalls  Scaffolders  Roofers  Construction trade supervisors  Labourers nec  Logistical operators  Non-construction operatives  Steel erectors  Bricklayers

D2N2 Summary Labour demand Training 79,400 workers in 2015 Peak demand = 118% 61 training providers 8,900 construction, building & engineering learning aims delivered 60% of construction training delivered by five main colleges Drivers (% of demand 2016) 1.New housing 27.7% 2.Private commercial 26.9% 3.Infrastructure 17.5% 4.Public non-residential13.5% Construction occupations at peak Wood trades & interior fit out5,700 Plumbing, heating, ventilation4,000 Other construction managers3,800 Other construction professional3,750 Labourers3,700 Electrical trades3,550 Construction specific shortfalls Scaffolders Roofers Construction Supervisors Labourers Steel erectors Bricklayers The workforce 79,400 construction workers  20 years + experience = 38%  10 years + experience = 64%  Journey to work = 23 miles 8,600 construction companies  93% employ <10 people  0.1% employ >250 people

D2N2 RECOMMENDATIONS Construction skills plan 1a Validate the gaps for critical skills & professions Address the short & long term gaps Maintain the evidence base Identify pipeline investment 1b List & describe major pipeline investments What are their implications? Reskill & upskill 1c Are there opportunities to draw in workers from other sectors? E.g. Does a future decline in manufacturing employment provide an opportunity to fill construction gaps? Are there cross-sector impacts?

D2N2 RECOMMENDATIONS Develop a future curriculum Outreach & image building Smart procurement Facilitate shared apprenticeships  Site ready skills  Specialist building skills  Reduce under-subscribed courses Go out to schools:  Tackle negative stereotypes  Encourage applications Mandates support for: outreach; recruitment; training and apprenticeships  Local authorities work with main contractors  Apprenticeships allow movement between contractors & projects Identify & work with partners 2 Colleges Construction businesses Local authorities Influencers Stakeholders Construction skills plan 1a Validate the gaps for critical skills & professions Address the short & long term needs Maintain the evidence base

Last words  Training interventions need to be flexible enough to respond  Labour supply is very fluid  Workers travel to and from D2N2 Overprovision would be a risk when economic recovery is domestically driven What action might have the greatest effect?  Work collaboratively  Get the stakeholders together to develop a plan  What funding is available or might be  Focus on wins that are achievable and have an impact »Sectors driving demand »Skills demand and potential shortages »Critical local infrastructure

Questions 1.Do you endorse the findings of the report? Recognise the pipeline we’ve shown you from an employer and or curriculum perfective? Does this match your experience? 2.How can we collectively use this work to address gaps and shortages and work together better? 3.How will you use this piece of work to change your planning? 4.What support do you expect from D2N2?
