Volatility and uncertainty are the new normal for the auto industry. How should companies address the challenge?

Thursday, June 15, 2023  |  10:00 AM EDT

The automotive industry is going through the most significant transformation since it emerged some 150 years ago. Perhaps more than the pace of change, however, are the uncertainty and volatility that are shaking many industry norms and practices. While the path ahead is increasingly unclear, one thing is very clear: business as usual is not a viable strategy. The industry is beset by both profound transformational trends impacting its business model (known as CASE) as well as unforeseen market disruptions occurring faster and more frequently. However, every change also brings opportunities that, If properly addressed, can drive differentiating capabilities and enhance stakeholder value creation.

In this webinar, we will discuss some of these industry challenges and opportunities and specific actions that companies can take now in order to gain a longer-term competitive advantage. Discussion topics will include:

• How can you leverage key technologies to build a more agile business to respond quickly to disruptions?
• How can you leverage technology to capitalize on internal and external data for insightful business decisions?
• How can companies deploy AI/ML for defined use cases in planning and operations to increase operational efficiency and supply chain resilience, reduce risk, and improve quality?
