Abstract
To deliver craftsmanship in the premium automotive industry it is essential to have a clear process for the communication and setting of targets within the supply base. This research has determined the key areas in which craftsmanship delivery is failing in the premium automotive sector in the UK. The ongoing collaboration with premium vehicle manufacturers and the supply chain has promoted a dynamic, action based approach to this research. This has involved ongoing active participation with the market analysts, design engineers, manufacturing engineers working on the vehicle development programme at the early stages of the New Product Introduction (NPI) process. This research has detailed that the areas of target communication, market attribute understanding and supplier target agreements are the main areas of disconnection in the process used on past programmes. From this basis the implementation of a process to aid the realisation of craftsmanship requirements in the final vehicle is discussed.
