The territorial distribution reveals a supply chain organised around industrial clusters. Across the combined EO/exploration perimeter, Lazio has 78 profiles, Lombardy 44, Piedmont 29, Campania 22, Emilia-Romagna 17, Puglia and Tuscany 15 each, and Veneto 14. These numbers are not headcount or site counts, because the same company may have several presences; they indicate where increases or reductions in orders can propagate through local ecosystems.

Regional specialisations differ. Piedmont combines habitats, pressurised structures, special processes, robotics and operations; Lazio concentrates systems, integration, services, data and management functions. Lombardy, Abruzzo, Basilicata and Sardinia respectively host important capabilities in avionics and computing, electronics and operating centres, EO downstream activities and deep-space communications. This is a functional geography, not simply an administrative one.
Bromo can alter the balance between these clusters without immediately moving large numbers of employees. A new vendor list, the centralisation of a competence centre or the assignment of a product line can redirect work flows across territories. The baseline should therefore cross-reference site, function, technology and suppliers rather than reduce the analysis to a regional ranking.
Industrial geography matters because capabilities and suppliers are organised in functional clusters; workshare can reshape them even without site closures.
