The Second Century: Reconnecting Customer and Value Chain through Build-to-Order артикул 2331e.

As the auto industry moves into its second century, it suffers from low margins and a sclerotic value chain that cannot evolve with customers' desires Inventories of many weeks pile up on dealers' lots and at distribution centers around the world while executives applaud marginal improvements in factory efficiency With billions of potentia product озшрк variations, customers still compromise by selecting from a limited number of products sitting at dealerships or at distribution centers Those customers who dare insist on a specific variation not only wait weeks but also pay extra for the privilege of telling vehicle manufacturers what they actually want In "The Second Century", Matthias Holweg and Frits Pil take a comprehensive look at today's dysfunctional value-chain strategies, then systematically discuss the changes ir products and in processes that are needed to bring about responsiveness to customer needs They look beyond the dealer, the factory, and the design studio to examine the web of relationships and the dynamics that have brought the auto industry to its curren low point Holweg and Pil argue that in this century the winners will not be those firms that search for larger and larger scale or those that run efficient factories, or those that squeeze the last drop of profitability from their suppliers The winners, they say, will be those who build products as if customers mattered Формат: 15 см x 22,5 см Авторы Matthias Holweg Frits K Pil.  От издателяИздательство: The MIT Press, 2004 г Мягкая обложка, 256 стр ISBN 0-262-58262-7 Язык: Английский.
