Abstract
Overview
The financial crisis of 2009 and the 2011 disasters in Japan and Thailand have
all had a major impact on Honda Motor, Japan's third-largest carmaker, and how
the OEM sources the parts and components it needs to keep production lines up
and running.
Supplying Honda 2012 examines how the company was affected by these largely
unforeseen events and now, how Honda is planning to expand production across
its global factory network in order to regain lost market share.
Starting with a look at the relevant company financial details, the report
goes on to review Honda's production and platform strategy , including
cross-model part sharing strategies and a forecast of future vehicle
production (by global nameplate, through 2017). Supplying Honda 2012 also
takes an in-depth look at how the carmaker handles part buying globally and by
region, including analysis of how the company sources raw materials and how
extended relationships with suppliers are managed to help improve cut costs
for both the supplier and OEM. While this is important across the industry, it
is particularly critical for Honda as the carmaker looks to secure an
increased number of lithium-ion battery packs to support production of
additional hybrid models in order to meet its own CO2 reduction goals.
Other elements featured in the report include a list of suppliers delivering
parts for current Honda production and the processes driving internal OEM
quality management. For additional insight into how Honda of America
Manufacturing handles part procurement, this latest version of Supplying Honda
includes an exclusive interview with Tom Lake, Division Manager for North
American Purchasing, who in 2011 alone bought $16 billion of parts and
components.
