To compete in increasingly global markets, automotive enterprises must excel in the areas of cost, quality, on-time delivery, and product innovation. Compounding those challenges is an effort by the industry to reduce the lengthy delivery lead times associated with producing a built-to-order vehicle. While the "5-day car" remains an ideal, industry thought leaders believe that reducing traditional lead times from 60 or 70 days to a fraction of that time is a very achievable goal. To achieve the ultimate goal-a minimal amount of lead time with a minimal amount of inventory at the lowest operational cost-OEMs must go beyond improving their internal processes, core competencies, and outsourcing strategies and drive toward increased visibility of demand information between all links in the supply chain.
