Book The Global Automotive Industry

Download or read book The Global Automotive Industry written by Paul Nieuwenhuis and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-10-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The automotive industry is still one of the world's largest manufacturing sectors, but it suffers from being very technology-focused as well as being relatively short-term focused. There is little emphasis within the industry and its consultancy and analyst supply network on the broader social and economic impacts of automobility and of the sector that provides it. The Global Automotive Industry addresses this need and is a first port of call for any academic, official or consultant wanting an overview of the state of the industry. An international team of specialist researchers, both from academia and business, review and analyse the key issues that make vehicle manufacturing still the world’s premier manufacturing sector, closely tied in with the fortunes of both established and newly emerging economies. In doing so, it covers issues related to manufacturing, both established practices as well as new developments; issues relating to distribution, marketing and retail, vehicle technologies and regulatory trends; and, crucially, labour practices and the people who build cars. In all this it explains both how the current situation arose and also likely future trajectories both in terms of social and regulatory trends, as the technological, marketing and labour practice responses to those, leading in many cases to the development of new business models. Key features Provides a global overview of the automotive industry, covering its current state and considering future challenges Contains contributions from international specialists in the automotive sector Presents current research and sets this in an historical and broader industry context Covers threats to the industry, including globalization, economic and environmental sustainability The Global Automotive Industry is a must-have reference for researchers and practitioners in the automotive industry and is an excellent source of information for business schools, governments, and graduate and undergraduate students in automotive engineering.

Book Towards a new order in the global automotive industry  How Asian companies catch up to their western peers

Download or read book Towards a new order in the global automotive industry How Asian companies catch up to their western peers written by Daniel Wäldchen and published by Anchor Academic Publishing (aap_verlag). This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global automotive industry faces the most influential changes since the revolutionary introduction of mass production a century ago. Latecomer firms from Asia are challenging the western incumbents. They can change the rules of the game in the industry by leapfrogging several steps in their development process. This study seeks to contribute to the discussion of latecomer firms by gaining insights into the catch up processes of five automotive companies in the passenger car segment, namely BYD (PRC), Chery (PRC), Geely (PRC), Tata Motors (India) and Mahindra & Mahindra (India). Based on learning theories and the core processes of car manufacturers, the author develops a catch up framework in order to compare automotive latecomers. The Korean manufacturer Hyundai serves as an example for a successful catch up, and provides a contextual framing for catch up processes in the automotive sector. An analysis of empirical data provides evidence for the evaluation of the catch up status of the five challenger firms. The author emphasizes the influence of institutional settings in China and India and the role of business groups that can act as facilitators for the catch up process. Finally, the study clusters the catch up strategies of the five observed companies in order to compare their approach.

Book The Changing U S  Auto Industry

Download or read book The Changing U S Auto Industry written by James M. Rubenstein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-03-11 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years car production in the United States has undergone changes on a scale unknown since the pioneering era prior to World War One. New plants have been opened in the interior of the country, while most of those located along the east and west coast have been closed. The Changing U.S. Auto Industry uses concepts drawn from geography, such as access to markets and shipments of parts, to understand some of the reasons for the recent changes. Also critical is the changing role of labour in the production process, including the search by Japanese firms for a union-free environment, the re-location of some production to Mexico and the debate over the appropriate level of union-management cooperation.

Book A Profile of the Global Auto Industry

Download or read book A Profile of the Global Auto Industry written by Mike Smitka and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on the global auto industry viewed through the lens of technology. It starts by tracing how innovation shaped the first century of its history, then it examines the industry’s shifting footprint in Europe and North America, and the rise of new producers, particularly China. Succeeding chapters emphasize the role of suppliers in what is now a high-tech industry. This book describes new forms of collaboration that challenge traditional supply chain relations, analyzing regulation as a driver of innovation, and the enabling role of the materials science revolution, such as the shift of steel from a commodity to a highly engineered product. It covers innovations in management, from computer-aided engineering, roadmapping, and just-in-time methods to the evolving role of workers and public policy. The authors finish with an overview of electric vehicles, shared mobility, and autonomous vehicles, concluding that they will not prove disruptive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: The approach of this research paper is to give an overview about the Chinese automotive industry. An analysis of the People s Republic of China (PRC) shows the investment possibilities for foreign automotive manufactures. This research introduces the major opportunities and threats of political, social, economical, environmental, technological and legal dimensions within China. In the first part the Political System will be analysed by Christian Lutz. The historical and cultural roots are important to understand the political developments. The theoretical and actual politcal system and their problems will be shown. He also reflects the Social System with its different specifications. The current fall-back system with community health, retirement pension and unemployment will be analysed. Furthermore the potential opportunities and risks for automotive investors will be addressed. In the third part Economy Benjamin Pflüger point out that China is potentially the largest and one of the fatest-growing automotive markets in the world and therefore significant for all foreign automobile manufactures. There are both great opportunities and possible threats existing in China. The huge population, economic growth, increasing income and improved environment for consumers as well as China`s membership of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) are important for the future development of the global economy. This also leads to unavoidable consequences for the environment. The current situation and the environmental impact of China`s motorization, such as infrastructure shortage and air pollution, will be presented in sup-topic Environment . In the fifth chapter Technology Thorsten Iwanowski will introduce aspects of technology and technology management in China. As nowadays the main form of investment is the joint venture, this will be focused. The accelerating technological development within the last decades does not only generate advantages for the Chinese people. After having created several constitutions within the last 50 years, a modern and future oriented one has been passed. This constitution basing the new legal system will require fast and further legal rules and laws to meet the challenges of the Chinese future. These circumstances and their influence on the automobile industry will be pointed out in the part Legal System . The last years show an increasing volume of Foreign Invested Enterprises (FIE) within [...]
