  • Portugal Case Study 1
    This action has received funding from the European Union (DG Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion) WP3: Country case studies Report - Portugal Case study 1 - Volkswagen Autoeuropa Raquel Rego & Sónia Apolinário Instituto de Ciências Sociais – Universidade de Lisboa Lisbon, October 2019 The content of this document does not reflect the official opinion of the European Union. Responsibility for the information and views expressed lies entirely with the author. 1. Introduction A key player in the national context In 1995, Volkswagen moved into Portugal with the opening of an automotive production plant, Volkswagen Autoeuropa. Located in Palmela, in the district of Setúbal (about 30 km from Lisbon and 10 km from the port of Setúbal), the plant entered production in May 1995. Autoeuropa still represents the largest foreign investment ever made in Portugal, generating a significant impact on the national and regional economy and estimated to represent 1.6% of the national GDP1. A relevant case study Portuguese researchers have devoted a great deal of attention to the study of Autoeuropa, for example the works by Stoleroff and Casaca (1996), Correia (2000), Costa (2013) and Stoleroff and Chora (2017). Their interest is due, on the one hand, to the company’s technological innovation, employing the "kaizen" system and "lean production" in a country where industrial development is otherwise weak and Fordism predominates (Correia, 2000); on the other hand, to the exceptional nature of its labour relations system (Costa, 2013), which essentially derives from the group's strategy and contrasts with the pattern in which Portugal is commonly inserted characterised by centralized negotiation and weak worker representation at the company level – although there is no co-determination in the Portuguese plant.

  • Volkswagen Autoeuropa: Maximizing Production Efficiency with 3D
    Maximizing production efficiency with 3D printed tools, jigs, and fixtures By using 3D printed tools, jigs, and fixtures, Volkswagen Autoeuropa reduces cycle time operation, labor, and the need for reworking, while improving tool ergonomics. Furthermore, they achieve this at a tenth of the usual cost. The company estimates that they were able to save €475,000 ($525,000) in its first two years using Ultimaker 3D printers. Company Volkswagen Autoeuropa – Introduction Volkswagen Autoeuropa Traditionally, subtractive processes focus on manu- facturing tools for mass production or production Industry of stringent requirement components. In contrast, Automotive the additive approach dominates rapid prototyping processes – providing much greater flexibility in the Challenge necessary construction time. Develop customized solutions to address specific problems, re-engineer application of concepts With Ultimaker’s 3D printers, Volkswagen applied on auxiliary assembly, get rid of paperwork, Autoeuropa could test solutions without having to and shrink implementation time. contact suppliers, saving considerable time. As a result, purchasing costs were reduced (by 91% Solution when compared to working with external suppliers), The initial concept is converted to a digital file, then implementation time cut (95%), ergonomic sent to a 3D printer. Afterwards, the part is post- improvements were made, assembly processes and processed and evaluated through functional testing, quality indices improved, and potential problems saving both money and time. were easily anticipated at the concept stage. Results The company’s short-term goal is to create more • Cost optimization prototypes, gauges, tools, and spare parts in-house, • Time optimization reducing development time and acceptance testing • Robustness and process flexibility even further.

  • Driving Into Disaster – How the EU's 'Better Regulation' Agenda Fuelled
    Driving Into Disaster How the EU’s Better Regulation agenda fuelled Dieselgate Introduction Dieselgate The ‘Dieselgate’ scandal erupted in September 2015 when United States (US) regulators discovered that German car maker Volkswagen was using ‘defeat device’ software in The European Parliament’s inquiry into ‘Dieselgate’ has revealed that problems with diesel engines to reduce vehicles’ emissions during testing, effectively manipulating emission tests went far beyond Volkswagen’s use of illegal defeat devices. It exposes the results. a culture of looking the other way: the European Commission and Member States turned a blind-eye to industry-wide abuse of the system for emission regulation, Other car manufacturers, including Fiat, Renault, Mercedes, Opel, and Ford, were and, in fact, even invited the car industry to shape the regulatory agenda and its subsequently also found to have been “optimising” test results,2 with on-the-road enforcement. This meant that the car industry’s needs were prioritised in the name of nitrous oxide emission levels 5-10 times higher than legal limits permit, exposing ‘better regulation’ and at the expense of the health and wellbeing of European citizens. European citizens to dangerously high levels of pollution.3 Despite clear evidence of the health impacts of diesel pollution, the car industry was able to delay the implementation of existing standards and to shape new rules in its What the European own favour. As a result, cities across the European Union are left choking, as toxic Parliament’s inquiry found: traffic fumes have led to an air pollution crisis. The Commission and Member States knew in 2004- The report also finds that Member States failed to 2005 that there were discrepancies between the apply financial or legal penalties on car manufacturers An estimated 75,000 people died prematurely due to emission test results obtained from diesel cars in in the aftermath of ‘Dieselgate’.

    @ International Bulletin May 04, 2006 Volkswagen to Cut Jobs in Brazil Volkswagen to Cut Jobs in Brazil as Stronger Real Hurts Exports Volkswagen AG, Europe's largest carmaker, plans to cut thousands of jobs in Brazil as the country's strengthening currency makes its exports unprofitable. The unit, which sells 42 percent of its output abroad, said the job cuts will reduce labor costs by 25 percent in the production of new car models. Should the firings take place this year, the unit will post its first operating profit since 2004, said Hans-Christian Maergner, president of VW's Brazilian operation. “The results of the Brazilian company are still not at a satisfactory level,'' Chief Executive Officer Bernd Pischetsrieder told shareholders at the annual meeting today in Hamburg. ``This is because of the strong real and the resulting export losses. Capacity has to be adjusted to reflect this situation.'' VW, Brazil's fifth-largest exporter, forecasts its exports from the country will fall 40 percent through 2008 while output will drop by 100,000 units after the currency gained 71 percent against the dollar since 2003. Exports would again be profitable at an exchange rate from 3.1 reais to 2.9 reais, Maergner said. Higher labor and material costs have also eaten into profits margins on Fox compact cars, which are made in the plant in Sao Bernardo do Campo, in the metropolitan area of Sao Paulo, Maergner said. The company is basing its reorganization plans on a foreign exchange-rate forecast of 2.25 reais per dollar through 2008, Maergner said.
