Cost pressures, intense competition, industry overcapacity and increasing regulatory oversight lead a list of challenges facing automotive companies. Additional challenges abound in trying to capitalize on new growth opportunities – whether breaking into emerging markets such as China, or capitalizing on the rapidly growing sales and services aftermarket.
To improve performance, manufacturers, suppliers and aftermarket companies need to better manage their economies of scale, elevate levels of customer satisfaction, and reduce time to market with innovative products that will appeal to the target group of buyers. From supply chain and manufacturing processes to sales and customer service, prudent business decisions and IT investments will decide the winners.
