There’s no doubt that an OEM has many teams working together to produce its final product. To meet the high-performance expectations of an OEM, auto-part makers require a tremendous amount of coordination across teams that may not always be the greatest communicators or the most aligned with the production cycle.
These teams therefore rely on high levels of data availability and information accuracy to remain responsive. They also depend on that data and information being timely and relevant so they can have a full picture of what they are dealing with.
With so many teams and people involved in all these interrelated processes, it can be particularly challenging to handle team coordination well. Even just communicating the right information and making sure it is understood and delivered on time is a challenge within itself. How can OEMs manage such complex and diverse teams efficiently and quickly?
