Acknowledgements: The research on which this study is based would not have been possible without the generous cooperation of managers, workers and union officials at NUMMI. Gary Robinson helped transcribe taped interviews with them and discern the key points. This article has benefitted from the comments of several NUMMI people and from the responses of many friends and colleagues: Chris Argyris, Joel Beinin, Christian Berggren, Bob Brenner, Clair Brown, El Buffa, Bob Cole, John Ettlie, Steve Frenkel, Don Gerwin, Meg Graham, Jan Hopland, Sandy Jacoby, Ed Lawler, Ann Majchrzak, Ruth Milkman, Michael Reich, Dick Scott, Bill Simon, David Stern, Steve Wheelwright, Bob Sutton, Lowell Turner, and Stephen Wood. My thinking has also been stimulated by the reaction of colleagues to presentations at the USC, Harvard Business School, NYU, UCLA, and UC Berkeley. My thanks to all these people, many of whom still disagree. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION .................................................................................................... 3 RESEARCH METHODS.........................................................................................

  • Genesee and General Motors' Outsourcing
    New Automotive Markets: Genesee and General Motors' Outsourcing Prepared by: Michael S. Flynn and David J. Andrea of the Office for the Study of Automotive Transportation Transportation Research Institute The University of Michigan January 1990 Under a Sub-contract from the Industrial Technology Institute for a Contract from The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 1: Introduction This report seeks to identify potential market opportunities for Genesee County within the automotive economy, but external to General Motors. Through a combination of interview, survey, and archival data, it identifies product markets with three characteristics. First, demand from suppliers is likely to increase due to increased sourcing rather than manufacturing by the automotive assemblers. Second, capacity levels in the independent supplier sector are unlikely to be adequate to meet those demands. Third, the skills and product-experience of the GM labor force in Genesee constitute an available, trained workforce. The report also identifies companies, including domestic and transplant suppliers, that are likely beneficiaries of the increased outsourcing by the manufacturers; are likely to be capacity- constrained; and are likely to seek new locations. The ultimate goal of the study is to provide some direction to Genesee's efforts to find near-term replacement activity and jobs for expected losses at General Motors. The strategy reflects a recognition that Genesee's immediate attractions are its location with respect to the automotive facilities of the manufacturers, and a workforce both acclimated to the industrial culture of the automotive industry and experienced and skilled in its work requirements. In the final analysis, Genesee must diversify away from its heavy reliance on the automotive economy, but diversification within that economy is an important step, both to alleviate the impacts of the coming losses at GM and to achieve a diversified economy.

Yacobucci Specialist in Energy and Environmental Policy March 26, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41154 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress The U.S. Motor Vehicle Industry: Confronting a New Dynamic in the Global Economy Summary This report provides an in-depth analysis of the 2009 crisis in the U.S. auto industry and its prospects for regaining domestic and global competitiveness. It also analyzes business and policy issues arising from the unprecedented restructurings that occurred within the industry. The starting point for this analysis is June-July 2009, with General Motors Company (GM or new GM) and Chrysler Group LLC (or new Chrysler) incorporated as new companies, having selectively acquired many, but not all, assets from their predecessor companies. The year 2009 was marked by recession and a crisis in global credit markets; the bankruptcy of General Motors Corporation and Chrysler LLC; the incorporation of successor companies under the auspices of the U.S. Treasury; hundreds of parts supplier bankruptcies; plant closings and worker buyouts; the cash-for-clunkers program; and increasing production and sales at year’s end. This report also examines the relative successes of the Ford Motor Company and the increasing presence of foreign-owned original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), foreign-owned parts manufacturers, competition from imported vehicles, and a serious buildup of global overcapacity that potentially threatens the recovery of the major U.S.
