Overview

The connected car industry is rapidly evolving towards self-driving or autonomous vehicles. Such a rapid rate of innovation is accelerating the need for new business and supply chain models, and those which are emerging are embedded in service innovation. Digital Transformation of the Automotive Industry looks at the application of research carried out by the International Institute of Manufacturing, University of Cambridge, and presents real-life case studies of incumbents and new players that are responding and adapting to changes. Together with prominent figures from academia and industry, such as Professor Martin Christopher at Cranfield University and the Director of Connected Car at Audi, the authors look at how companies are learning from the new players while mobilising their own strengths to redefine service offerings, harness digital technology, and improve the customer experience. In Digital Transformation of the Automotive Industry, the authors provide detailed case insights and adopt a problem-solving approach. With comprehensive online resources and practical applications for practitioners, this ground-breaking new book will provide valuable knowledge for the engineering and supply chain management student, and key insights for the manufacturing professional to consider when reforming their automotive supply chain. Online supporting resources include short vignettes, audio visual material, podcasts, videos, executive interviews, conference presentations, workshop material and symposium keynote speeches and text analysis outputs.
