Overview: The automotive industry faces one of the most demanding phases of its recent evolution. Fierce competition means that some manufacturers and suppliers will face mergers or acquisitions, or ultimately exiting the business. Manufacturers' and suppliers' responses as they confront these obstacles will determine which companies will still be part of the industry 10 years from now. Other pressures such as satisfying shareholders, funding steep legacy costs (for example, healthcare and pensions), and cost reduction initiatives affect both manufacturers and suppliers alike. Supply Chain Management (SCM) activities play a significant role in many of these areas.
