Abstract
This great value bundle includes just-auto's review of outsourcing, currently
one of the most significant issues facing today's automotive supplier, plus
profiles of ten major OEM's: DaimlerChrysler, Fiat, Ford, GM, Honda, PSA,
Renault, Toyota, VW and Nissan.
Outsourcing is currently perceived as key to automotive suppliers' survival,
and is being driven by consumers in the price-pressurised global market. In
the 1990's Fiat embraced the concept of outsourcing, whereby it only designs,
markets and sells its vehicles, leaving the assembly to other partners in the
industrial network. In contrast, Japanese carmakers such as Honda continue to
believe that no other company can assemble vehicles more efficiently and
profitably than they can themselves. This new report provides an insight into
future trends, and the approaches taken by the major OEM's, along with the
benefits of outsourcing.
Report coverage
This new global outsourcing report encompasses each of the components

component level; the drivers involved, along with forecasts and an outlook to
2010.
