Journal Title: IOSR journal of Business and Management - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 5
Abstract
since the introduction of modularity in automotive industry, the sector has undergone several changes. Thus, the production process has become more complex; many companies operating in different fields and dispersed geographically are involved in production network, alongside the raise of powerful megasuppliers etc. In this context, governance is central. By sitting parameters for other firms, carmakers can ensure their supply of components and avoid any faille. In the light of the characteristics of this industry and using global value chain approach, the purpose of this paper is to analyze how carmakers govern their production network. Through literature review, we conclude that governance between automaker and first tiers suppliers is a dynamic process, evolving over time as well as is a combination of different modes at the same time.
