The idea behind LMM is Manufacturing Planning and Control (MPC) system of the materials and information flow which involve both Manufacturing Resources Planning (MRP II), and Just-in-Time (JIT) techniques. In addition, Total Quality Management (TQM) is integrated to ensure the quality of the processes and products of the system.

The new era of automobile Received in revised form 16 November 2016 safety is presumably come at the right time for Malaysia after the two important Accepted 25 November 2016 milestones i.e. local assembly initiative in 1960’s and the national car project in 1980’s. Available online 5 December 2016 The maturity of VTA exercise in Malaysia and the inception of ASEAN NCAP are contributing to direct and indirect pressure to car manufacturers to progressively produce safer cars. Since car pricing is driven by market competitiveness and not affected by safety upgrades, the consumers eventually would enjoy more values for their money through safer cars. In terms of car safety, the automotive ecosystem in Malaysia could as well explain the impact of NCAP in other ASEAN countries’ automotive layout. It is expected that there will be growing demand for safer vehicles and also positive response from OEMs in Malaysia and the region.

Power Asia Pacific 2012 Malaysia Customer Service Index (CSI) Study.SM The study, now in its 10 th year, measures overall customer satisfaction among vehicle owners who took their vehicle to their authorized service centre for maintenance or repair work during the first 12 to 24 months of ownership. The study evaluates new-vehicle owner satisfaction with the after-sales service experience by examining dealership performance in five factors (in order of importance): service quality; vehicle pickup; service initiation; service advisor; and service facility. Overall customer satisfaction averages 740 index points on a 1,000-point scale in 2012, an improvement of 22 points from 2011. Of the 22 service standards examined in the study, authorized service centres of national makes implement 17.7 per visit, on average, an increase from 17.1 in 2011. Service standard implementation among non- national makes remains higher, with an average of 18.4, which is unchanged from 2011. Improvements cited by owners of national makes—Malaysia-branded vehicles—include essential customer-centric activities, such as explanations of work and physical inspection of vehicle both before and after service. “Gaps in service satisfaction remain, but are narrowing between national and non-national makes in Malaysia,” said Mohit Arora, executive director at J.D.

Despite the use of a wide range of industrial policies, both standard import substituting ones and more targeted policies, the main national producer, Proton, has been unable successfully to enter the global automotive value chain. We argue that Malaysia is probably faced with a choice of accepting foreign majority ownership, as in its second national producer, Perodua, or reconciling itself to Proton lagging in both technology and marketing. One hopeful sign is the intensified assistance being provided by Japanese motor firms to Malaysian producers under the current Malaysia-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement.
