RELOCATION – The Automotive way
Most components are unique to a specific model of a car i.e.
“VW Golf 1.8 TDI 2002-2007”
For each new model (5-7 years) a new purchasing contract is
negoitiated
This lead-time is 2-3 years
Re-location is a way to meet the price pressure from the VMs
Re-location is gradual and progressive
“Made in Germany” could mean that 75% of the car is made
outside of Germany
Automotive Manufacturing in Western Europe under threat?
• Currently, 33% of Western European Supplier (WES) has operations in
Eastern Europe and 15% in China
• Soon, 50% of WES will be operating in Eastern Europe and/or China
• 39% of all WES intend to transfer parts of production process to Eastern
Europe in the next 5 years
• 23% of all WES planning similar investments in China
