In the global automotive industry, opportunities and risks are everywhere. But while possibilities are plentiful, profitable growth is becoming more difficult to achieve. Challenges can upend even the best laid plans. Amidst this landscape, automotive organisations must conduct their business, while at the same time adapting to new regulations, reducing costs, managing capacity and inventory, and controlling healthcare and compensation costs.
Automotive challenges
- Cost reduction/Performance improvement
- Emerging markets
- Excess labour, production capacity, inventory, and predatory pressures on margins
- Improving supply chain efficiency
- Retail and distribution performance
- New regulations (accounting standards, government regulations - e.g., Block Exemption Reform, IFRS, ELV, CAFE, EU Accession, CO2 regulations)
- Environmental Sustainability
