Optimizing the capex investments
CapEx optimization is currently the number one priority due to many liquidity bottlenecks, including lower unit volumes, shorter product life cycles, high variance, and the switch toward electric vehicles. This is especially true as CapEx optimization helps improve two critical levers simultaneously, i.e., cost and cash. Throughout the last 10-15 years, the Automotive industry has focused on product cost optimization as volumes were high, tackling CapEx only as a second priority. As a result, the maturity to optimize those levers and the underlying supply chain is limited, leaving significant savings of between 20-30% unattached.
