The 2011 OEM-Supplier Relationship Report analyses the state of relations between automakers and suppliers based on the SupplierBusiness authentic SuRe (Supplier Relationship) Index.The index is based on our well-established survey programme of the automotive supply industry, which started in 2005 and which has seen the participation of more than a thousand senior to middle managers working at automotive suppliers and directly interfacing with OEMs personnel. Results of the 2011 research and resulting SuRe Supplier Relationship (SuRe) index rankings are eye opening to say the least. The study, which measures the performance of global carmakers in managing their relationships with their supply base, shows that ratings have fallen by 7.6% on average between 2010 and 2011, marking a return to those levels achieved in 2009, indicating a general deterioration of relations between suppliers and automakers on a global basis over the last twelve months and comes after 2 years of marked improvements when the index increased by 3% and 3.6% respectively. Thirty-three global automakers were ranked, with the major Chinese companies included for the first time.

The ASEAN is home to some of the fastest growing economies in the world. Member countries have become increasingly aware of the potential and growing role that they play in the global automotive industry. This has begun to make all industry players including governments increasingly knowledgeable and tuned into the opportunities. Governments are seeing that targeted regulations can attract investments, investors are choosing the most promising markets to enter and both OEMs and suppliers are looking to benefit. These developments led to the ASEAN Secretariat s Roadmap for Integration of the Automotive Products Sector and the push to implement the ASEAN Free Trade Agreement (AFTA), which came into full effect in January 2010, allowing for zero-tariff trade among six member nations. These movements signal the emergence of a new era in this region s automotive and automotive supplier industry.

Following two of the most challenging years in its history with the first loss recorded in over 70 years and a series of global recalls with far-reaching implications affecting the carmaker’s reliability aura, the world’s number one automaker is laying out plans to return to solid business fundamentals and to regain the positive customer perception it has boasted of for years. In order to trigger such changes Akio Toyoda, the company’s president, has decided to make the organisation leaner by reducing the number of directors in the company’s board (from 27 to 11) and ousting some key personnel such as former president Watanabe, who oversaw Toyota’s expansion between 2005 and 2009 and was still part of the board. Under the Global Vision plan Toyota is also delegating more power to regional subsidiaries in the attempt to streamline decision-making, by making it more local, and to gain a greater perception into each country’s problems and requirements. The Global Vision plan, aimed at shaping the Toyota of 2015 and beyond, is being translated into targeted measures for the different regions.

While Renault’s aggressive electrification plans have raised much attention in the industry for their ambition and its still unclear prospect due to the early adoption of electric vehicles without intermediate hybridisation steps, the French carmaker is attempting to weather the aftermath of 2009, a year which was marked by a significant drop in deliveries and swinging to a €3.7bn loss. The prospect of shrinking total industry volumes by 10% in 2010 leave the carmaker little space to manoeuvre in terms of investments and all potential savings have to be pursued at all levels with a shrewd management of R&D and capital expenditures.
