Common automotive oems
challenges by role

  • “Chip shortages continue to seriously impact our sales plan”
  • “Our transport market research on leading indicators is disconnected from our supply chain plan”
  • “We can’t support the sales of all these new/different configurations”
  • “Our fleet sales plans and channel mix are dramatically shifting”
  • “New regulations are impacting my EV sales forecast”
  • “New technologies (e.g. connected services, autonomous driving and electrification) and regulation are increasing the complexity of the product portfolio.”
  • “I have too many blind spots on my upstream capacity”
  • “I can’t manage 15000+ component suppliers on JIT- I am blind on multi-tier supplier constraints”
  • “No one is looking at forward drivers of demand for better forecasting”
  • “Distribution, procurement and ops are not able to re-plan easily when faced with change”
  • “It is taking days/weeks to tell me if a plan change is possible”
  • “Our demand in developing markets is expected to be a leading, long-term growth driver.”
  • “We need a better long-range plan for new assembly footprints to shift to high growth regions.”
  • “Liquidity has become a major issue. We seek to reduce costs in response to lower market share and shift to innovative platforms”
  • “Consumer rebates and dealer incentives are missing volume lift expectations”
  • “Our S&OP deck takes too much time to build and is out of date by the time we have our meeting”
