Around the globe you have clearly noticed the current struggle for life within the automotive industry. However, this “cry for help” situation pressurizes the classical known car manufacturers and also the probably future players coming out of China and India to think out of the blue.
In order to support this new process with a strong cost-reduction edge, you should certainly consider a no-nonsense “Supply Chain Consultancy for the Automotive Industry”. Not just a standard type of service but much better one based upon extensive field experience from both sides of the table, the car companies and the tier supplier(s). People with the ability to make things happen!
Hereby some key arguments for making this right choice, selecting consultants with:
• a profound knowledge of the automotive landscape
• a strong functional wisdom of the complex material flows in every stage
• a clear sense of the process from innovation up till the final stage of industrialization and after-sales services
• an understanding of the technical requirements
• the capability to validate products and processes (audit)
• extensive knowledge of various cost-cutting methodologies
• a sense of speed and strong momentum
• the knowledge on how to differentiate one brand to another
• experience in both the original equipment and after-market world
Without in-depth experience of reverse auctions, value analysis, value engineering, simultaneous engineering, outsourcing etc. linked with specific technology you will not walk far in this challenging industry.
Food for specialist and a certainty that only these
supply chain consultants with extensive automotive experience can play a significant role in this arena!
Would you trust your Audi, BMW or Mercedes to an amateur?
