Previously automotive manufacturers had competed fiercely against each other, rooted in rigid structures and protected by high market entry barriers. With Asian car makers aggressively growing market share, and emerging markets challenging traditional cost structures, suppliers and manufacturers needed to continually focus on lean and cost-effective processes and products, and industry collaboration - while still delivering breakthrough innovation. Now they face a different kind of threat from new players - requiring new strategic alignments and ability to capture value much further downstream than before.
PA Consulting Group's manufacturing teams have sound industry knowledge - over 70% of the consultants worked for car makers, Tier1 and Tier2 suppliers around the world. They understand the automotive sector and are able to bring deep insight and practical experience to assignments with clients.
PA helped Fiat, Magna, Inalfa and German car manufacturers transform their organisations from R&D and purchasing up to operations and sales. This includes services such as restructuring and turnaround, cost optimisation across the supply chain, supplier relationship management, manufacturing strategy and relocation as well as sales and after sales process efficiency.
