24. BAE Systems’ economic importance to the North West
Just under 3% of all knowledge intensive private sector jobs and 12% of knowledge intensive production sector jobs (nearly one job in eight) in the NW are directly generated by BAE Systems
In the Central Lancashire City Region BAE Systems accounts for a third of direct employment in knowledge intensive manufacturing
More suppliers in the North West (1,200) than any other region
Support from BAE Systems (e.g. in mentoring schemes) has been critical to developing and maintaining supply networks in the region
