Automotive & Components

The car industry has entered a phase where strategy and planning are being crossed by winds of uncertainty and rapid and unpredictable changes. Great risks and extraordinary opportunities are open to the players in the industry.

The transition to electric mobility and the evolution of vehicles as true digital hubs are only the most obvious challenges that are affecting manufacturers and suppliers, they are also called to address relevant problems along the entire Supply Chain and in the management of the workforce.

In particular, companies operating in the supply of components are called to use agile and digital processes in strategic governance, to be increasingly quick and effective in meeting new demands, to maintain a competitive cost structure and develop organizational models based on autonomous and responsible teams.

Economic, environmental and social sustainability is an indispensable challenge in a competitive environment where certain differentiating factors related to innovation, quality and operational efficiency remain.

  • Transition to Electric and Sustainable Mobility. Significant investment in research and development is needed to improve electric vehicle technologies and implement circular economic practices
  • Digitization and direct sales are changing the sales landscape
  • Disruptions in the supply chain caused by pandemic and geopolitical tensions continue to affect production and increase costs
  • Finding innovative ways to reduce costs and increase efficiency
  • Competition to attract and retain talents, especially with the emergence of new technologies and competing industries
