Outsourcing
Car manufacturers focus more and more on product development and machine assembly.
They spare their investments on increasing production volume, on globalization and cost reduction.
They resort to stamping and assembly skilled suppliers, who can take part in development of production and can cover global sourcing.
Product optimization
- First level facilities
- Assuring development according to demand
- Modules uniformity thanks to the choice of a conception and only one integrator
- Development with partners of the complete function "closures" (bodywork, trimming, electrical systems, glass, ...) with local assembly. Modules are directly delivered just-in-time to assembly chains
Value Creation
- Optimization of plant capacity among different customers
- Production in different plants abroad: depending on volumes, investments are done on double equipment to assure production with a local partner
- Logistic cost reduction for stamped and assembled parts
