Automotive

The global Automotive Industry is unique in its historic influence on modern society. Ranging from massive assembly plants to small start-up high-tech suppliers, and from long-term supply chain partners to hometown car dealers, the industry faces unusually wide-ranging operational and financial challenges. Few industries are more symbolic of the transformational era in which we live. Every aspect of the automotive industry is under review to determine the landscape of personal mobility in the years to come.

Kepner-Tregoe works with the majority of leading automotive OEMs and most tier-1 suppliers throughout the world. Since our founding in 1958, KT has supported the industry’s major players with excellence in critical thinking skill development for swiftly resolving complex issues.

The foundational technologies of Kepner-Tregoe, including analytical troubleshooting, root cause analysis (RCA), decision making and other critical processes, are used to resolve complex problems and make decisions related to production, quality, engineering, finance and global supply chain management.
