Shifting gears in the automotive industry
The global automotive industry produces over 66 million vehicles annually and accounts for 5% of the world’s total manufacturing employment. Demand is strong, with customers wanting vehicles that are of the highest quality, while being cost-effective and fuel-efficient. However, there are significant challenges facing this global industry. The competitive landscape, in particular, is getting more congested. With certain Asian OEMs aggressively growing market share, and emerging markets challenging traditional cost structures, suppliers and OEMs need to continually focus on lean and cost-effective processes and products, and industry collaboration, while still delivering breakthrough innovation.
PA's automotive team PA Consulting Group is a global management, systems and technology consulting firm that delivers business transformation for clients in some 35 countries. Our Manufacturing and Automotive teams have over 500 consultants and our advice is based on deep industry knowledge, with over 70% of our consultants having worked for OEMs, Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers around the world. Our consultants understand the challenges facing the automotive sector and are able to bring deep insight and practical experience to our clients’ challenges as we help them transform their organisations.
