EMs know they need more flexibility in production \u2013 and soon \u2013 to meetdemand for greater individualization and better cost competitiveness.\u00a0Here\u2019s how...<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n\n <\/div>\n \t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Automakers\u2019 need for production network flexibility has never been more <\/span>urgent. Demand for customized vehicles is growing at the premium end of the
market, while at the volume end the opposite force prevails, and product complexity is being cut for cost reasons. Development cycles are growing ever-shorter, resulting in more frequent production-line changes, and increased geopolitical volatility is affecting demand and global supply chains. The last point has come to the fore in the wake of Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine, causing shortages from auto suppliers there.<\/p>

Faced with these disruptive forces on both the demand and the supply side,
OEMs are taking more radical positions when it comes to the degree of product
individualization they offer, as well as what level of value creation will be kept inhouse. As a result, new production archetypes will emerge that will shape OEMs\u2019 future manufacturing networks.<\/p>
