Foreword
A Challenging Landscape And The Way Forward
With the recent developments in the global automotive industry, new challenges have emerged for the Indian auto component industry. While the growth prospects of the Indian auto component industry remain very promising, there are new challenges as we evolve into a critical part of the global auto eco-system. For Indian suppliers, on one hand there is the need to maintain competitiveness in an inflationary environment and on the other the need to compete with the best in an increasingly uncertain global market. Strong working relationship and world-class capabilities congruent with global standards of excellence are essentials for the fast changing requirements of the customers. Few questions that need to be answered in this context, which are critical for sustainable growth: what is the nature of, and how competent and comfortable are current working relationships between OEMs and suppliers, what needs to be done to make them more engaging and enduring going forward, and what are the key gaps.
To address these questions, the Automotive Component Manufacturers Association (ACMA) commissioned a joint study with M/s JD Power Asia Pacific - ‘Insights Into Supplier – OEM Relationship: a Benchmarking Study’. The study focuses on the relationship between OEM and suppliers in India benchmarking it with the automotive community in developed and other emerging markets.
The benchmarking study indicates that the industry stands to gain from more engagement across the value chain. The cost pressure on suppliers is intensifying around the world. OEMs across the world prefer to engage with suppliers with stable lines of communication, good work culture, effective process orientation, end customer knowledge, who can jointly work with the OEM in developing products and technology to be delivered with a global footprint. OEMs today are consolidating and looking to optimise the points of contact for efficient and effective supplier management and cost savings. Consolidation of supplier base will call for Tier-1 suppliers to manage, continuously upgrade and even handhold the Tier-2 suppliers. This will enhance business opportunities in the future, but will pose challenges, as Tier-1s will have to invest in requisite skills and resources to manage an integrated supply chain.
Further, as in India, in international markets too, both suppliers and OEMs are faced with the challenge of shortage of skilled manpower, which needs to be urgently addressed. However, this has to be jointly addressed by the OEMs and the supplier community, and not wait for Government to step in.
We would like to place on record our appreciation for the efforts of M/s J D Power Asia Pacific for conducting this in-depth study. We are also grateful to our Past Presidents, ACMA member companies, OEMs, IPOs and suppliers in India as well as in US, Germany, Franceand China who have shared a wealth of their knowledge for this study.
We are hopeful that this document will form a basis for all future reference, dialogue and policy formulation for the auto component suppliers and their OEMs.
With best wishes,

Key findings – Consolidation of Suppliers (1/2)Consolidation activities will continue to alter the competitive landscape in the Automotive Component Supplier industry
COMMENTS
•In most cases, for non-critical parts OEMs now source from a single tier-1 supplier• Key drivers for consolidation are:
• Better supplier management;• Improvement in cost savings & profitability potential • Ability to better manage continuous improvement initiatives
• In addition the fact that several Tier-1’s now have multiple facilities and have grown larger in size & capacity further increases the complexity for the OEM

Some amount of initial handholding may be done by the OEM
• Existing smaller Tier-1 suppliers are increasingly being assigned to other existing larger Tier-1 suppliers. • Result: Critical for large Tier-1’s to manage their growing Tier-2 partners. Would call for additional investment in resources – people, infrastructure, processes. • Organizations would need to align themselves to the new market realities. Significant risk of disruption/ separation if alignment becomes a big challenge.

Key findings – Flexibility/ Adaptability (1/2)Case of Home-grown companies Vs. MNC Suppliers
Home-Grown Vs. MNC Suppliers - Quotes
• Professional approach to business in case of MNC’s likely to win the game in the long run. • While home grown companies in India are more flexible – and considered “easier to work with”, it also exposes the organization to considerable business risk• Flexibility is often sought owing to lack of proper planning• MNCs abide by strict contractual terms as they protect their business risk exposure across markets worldwide.
COMMENTS“MNC’s are more focused on quality targets, project timelines. Home grown companies are yet to understand and feel like “I am running the show at the client plant”. MNC’s are also more demandingand less flexible. If for example the SOP is delayed; while home grown companies are OK, MNC’s asks for compensation” - OEM India
The MNC’s score better on their responsiveness, in their ability to look through the requirement, understand quality, specifications, bring in valuable insights/ suggestions, make predefined business case, think through the delivery mechanism. The family owned businesses have lesser aspirations. However, the family-owned businesses are easier to work with. They do not argue. You talk to them and the work immediately starts. For MNCs you have to give them LOI, signed contracts, surety of business, before they even make a small investment” – OEM India

Key findings – Flexibility/ Adaptability (2/2)Transforming the organization by bringing in a stronger process orientation is likely to help in business continuity over the long-run for Indian home-grown companies
Process Orientation Vs. Flexibility/ Adaptability
• MNC suppliers in India are indigenizing their processes to suit local working styles prevalent in India. • Indian home-grown companies are also adapting to the western style of management; with second generation entrepreneurs, having acquired professional managerial skills are leading this transformation• The transformation to a more professional set-up would pose significant challenges both internally & externally but essential for future survival.

Key findings – Trust Business partners must be clear on their reasons for wanting to build trust, assess risks and the intention and willingness to take risks, and receive feedback on their trustworthiness
• To build trust in a B2B scenario, it is important to manage the dynamics both within and across partner organizations. • While the primary drivers of trust remain Quality, Cost & Delivery performance over time, partners need to clearly state and discuss on their expectations and readiness of meeting them. • The structure in place between the two organizations can foster increased trust. Direct channels of communication, measurement & feedback, grievance redressal escalation mechanism etc. helps in building trust.

Key findings – Organization/ Manpower Issues (1/2)Increased interactions with various OEM departments may necessitate greater co-ordination (internally) as well as availability of capable manpower at various levels
• In India, as suppliers are moving up the value chain, increasingly they are getting into component design.
• Though marketing still continues to be the front-face of the organization, there is greater interactions between OEM and supplier teams from design and quality departments.
• Quality and Design teams at OEMs now exercise far greater influence in supplier selection and evaluation

Key findings – Organization/ Manpower Issues (2/2)Manpower planning and execution of HR policies is increasingly being used to assess Supplier’s aspirations and management outlook
• OEMs consider Human Resource related aspects as well to assess supplier’s management outlook and capability. For example:
• Stable organization structure with clear hierarchies
• Working conditions in plants and offices, workers canteen etc
• Safety practices
• Sustainability initiatives
• Timely payment of salaries, incentives & implementation of basic HR policies

Key findings – Global Alliance/ FootprintGlobal alliance/ footprint is likely to gain importance as OEMs tap their existing supplier relationships in home country to establish base in newer markets
• At present, supplier selection is not based on global alliance/ footprint. However, it is likely to increase in importance as Indian OEMs design vehicles for the global market.
• The acquisition of global companies are also helping Indian OEMs to leverage their contacts in International markets where they intend to source parts or set up assembly units.
COMMENTS
“Key to selecting suppliers is technology at the right price more than anything else. We go for suppliers who have proven technology and are willing to give us at the right price” – Indian OEM
“We look for global alliance primarily for high-technology items. For new technology items we look for suppliers who have a global alliance. If it is an old technology, then we look for the global subsidiaries of suppliers. We need global technology at Indian prices. We need technology to bridge the global gap” –Indian OEM
“In Country X, we need local assembly with around 30% localization. The component costs in Country X are higher than India. However, using our current supplier’s relationships with suppliers in Country X, we were able to cut down the costs by 30-35%.” – Indian OEM
