Changing roles of assembly and logistics suppliers in New Production Chain :
The vehicle production industry is evolving beyond recognition. Car manufacturing is being rebuilt. Carmakers have been rethinking their business models in response to consumer demands, competitive pressures and shareholder dissatisfaction with the industry's returns. They are redefining their core competences.
In many plants they are stepping back from direct involvement in many of the operations that they have traditionally undertaken in their plants and regarded as core. Increasingly they are rolling out best practises across older plants, or closing those facilities.
First tier suppliers have to adjust to these changes by reshaping their assets and skill base to take advantage of the new opportunities and to meet new demands. They too must look carefully at what they do best in order to avoid taking on excessive responsibilities.
In the gap between OEMs and first tiers, new logistics and facilities businesses are growing to manage the interfaces of the new system.
The changes involved amount to a new production chain in the industry, one where the successful business could have a substantially different shape from the successful business under the traditional industry model.
"The New Production Chain" looks at these trends and maps out some of the ways in which businesses will have to adapt in the next several years.
One section will look at the currents stage of production chain rebuilding at the major OEMs and compare their strategies. Another section will look at some of the major players in the new production chain, looking at the major equipment providers for the production process but also focussing on non-traditional suppliers of services such as logistics.
