The company manufactures and distributes automobiles in 200 markets across six continents. With 95 manufacturing facilities worldwide, the company's core and affiliated automotive brands include Ford, Lincoln, Mazda, Mercury and Volvo. It also owns a 33.4% controlling stake in Mazda. The company conducts its business through two divisions: automotive and financial services. Within these divisions, Ford’s automotive business is further divided into reportable segments based upon its geographical and organizational structure. The automotive business division consists of the design, development, manufacture, sale and service of cars, trucks and service parts. Through this division, Ford produces a wide range of vehicles including cars for the small, medium, large and premium segments; trucks; buses/vans (including minivans); full-size pickups; sport utility vehicles and vehicles for the medium/heavy segments. The company's automotive business is organized into five segments: Ford North America, Ford South America, Ford Europe, Premier Automotive Group (PAG), and Ford Asia Pacific and Africa/Mazda. The Ford North America segment primarily includes the sale of Ford, Lincoln and Mercury brand vehicles and related service parts in North America (the US, Canada and Mexico), together with the associated costs to design, develop, manufacture and service these vehicles and parts. The Ford South America segment includes primarily the sale of Ford brand vehicles and related service parts in South America. The Ford Europe segment includes primarily the sale of Ford brand vehicles and related service parts in Europe, Turkey, and Russia. The PAG* segment includes primarily the sale of PAG-brand vehicles (i.e., Volvo, Jaguar, and Land Rover) and related service parts throughout the world (including North America, South America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Africa). Ford Asia Pacific and Africa/Mazda segment primarily includes the sale of Ford-brand vehicles and related service parts in the Asia Pacific region and South Africa, and Ford's share of the results of Mazda Motor Corporation and certain of other Mazda-related investments. In March 2008, Ford sold Jaguar and Land Rover operations to Tata Motors. Beginning with the first quarter of 2008, Ford would reflect the sale by restructuring its operating segments by eliminating the PAG segment and replacing it with a segment that will consist of its Volvo operations and, until it completes the sale of its Jaguar and Land Rover operations, a segment consisting of its held-for-sale Jaguar and Land Rover operations. In addition to producing and selling cars and trucks, Ford also provides a range of after sales services and products through its dealer network. In addition to the products that are sold to dealers for retail sale, Ford also sells cars and trucks to its dealers for sale to fleet customers, including daily rental car companies, commercial fleet customers, leasing companies, and governments. The company provides services such as maintenance and light repair, heavy repair, collision, vehicle accessories and extended service warranty. In North America, the company markets these products and services Ford Motor Company Page 5 © Datamonitor Ford Motor Company Business Description under several brands, including Genuine Ford and Lincoln-Mercury Parts and Service, Ford Extended Service Plan (ESP) and Motor Craft. The financial services division operates through the company subsidiary, Ford Motor Credit Company (Ford Credit). Ford Credit offers a wide variety of automotive financing products to, and through automotive dealers throughout the world. The predominant share of Ford Credit's business consists of financing Ford vehicles and supporting the company's dealers. Ford Credit's primary financial products fall into three categories: retail financing, wholesale financing, and other financing. In retail financing, Ford engages in purchasing retail installment sale contracts and retail lease contracts from

    A Climate Solution Concept

    A Climate Solution Concept Jonathan Pershing, Ph.D. Robert Bradley A Climate Solution Concept by Jonathan Pershing, Ph.D. and Robert Bradley July 2005 A Climate Solution Concept Executive Summary While climate change is one of the most pressing problems facing the world, it is also proving to be one of the most intractable. Political, economic and cultural differences between countries have led to different policy choices. This paper examines several alternatives that might be considered as supplements to the evolving international, legally binding climate regime. In particular, this paper proposes sub-global options – and focuses particular attention on examples of these that might be promoted by a Climate Working Group established by the Group of Eight industrialized nations (G8) to include G8 member countries plus a number of key developing countries such as China, India and Brazil. Two categories are discussed: technology options and the evolution of emissions markets outside of the Kyoto framework. Within the technology arena, numerous alternatives might be worth concerted attention of a Climate Working Group. This paper evaluates three: • Cleaning up coal. Today’s coal-fired utilities largely employ a technology that makes capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the waste stream extremely difficult. Supporting the penetration of a new, although more expensive, technology – integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) – would allow significant reduction in these capture costs. Combined with the development of technologies to sequester carbon (still untested at commercial scales), a switch to this new technology could yield major CO2 savings: if all new coal fired power in the United States, China and India by 2030 were IGCC with carbon capture, nearly 900 million tons CO2 could be saved annually (or approximately 10 percent of these countries’ annual CO2 emissions from power generation).
  • Abatement Strategies and the Cost of Environmental Regulation: Emission Standards on the European Automobile Market Job Market Paper

    Abatement Strategies and the Cost of Environmental Regulation: Emission Standards on the European Automobile Market Job Market Paper

    Abatement Strategies and the Cost of Environmental Regulation: Emission Standards on the European Automobile Market Job Market Paper Mathias Reynaert September 2014 Abstract Emission standards are one of the major policy tools to reduce green house gas emissions from transportation. The welfare e¤ects from this type of regulation are di¢ cult to evaluate as they depend on how …rms choose to comply. This paper studies the response of …rms to a new emission standard in the European car market using panel data covering 1998-2011. The data show that …rms choose to comply with the new regulation by heavily investing in new technology rather than adjusting the sales mix of their existing ‡eet. On average, vehicles are about 14% more CO2 e¢ cient in 2011 than in 2007. To evaluate the welfare e¤ects of this response I estimate a structural model using data from before the policy announcement and explicitly test how well the model is able to predict prices and sales after the large increase in fuel e¢ ciency. I …nd that, because the abatement is done by technology adoption, the regulation is bene…cial to both consumers and …rms, but has only moderate e¤ects on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions because of increases in total sales. If …rms had reacted by shifting relative prices of products with di¤erent fuel e¢ ciency the regulation would have resulted in large losses to consumer surplus and pro…ts but higher savings in emissions.

    Nine Things I Learned from Alan Mulally Bryce G

    Nine Things I Learned from Alan Mulally Bryce G. Hoffman ChangeThis | 93.01 In the summer of 2010, I decided to take a year off from my job as a journalist with The Detroit News to write a book about one of the most amazing comebacks in business history: the turnaround of Ford Motor Company. As the Ford beat reporter for the News, I had covered every twist and turn of that epic drama. I knew that this story was about much more than saving a car company. It was a roadmap for changing cultures. When Alan Mulally arrived in Dearborn in September 2006, he knew little about the automobile industry. However, he had already figured out how to take a dysfunctional organization that was being ripped apart by managerial infighting and turn it into a model of collaboration and effi- ciency. Mulally had proven that at the Boeing Company, where he was credited with saving the commercial aircraft division from a series of catastrophes ranging from the Asian financial crisis of the late 1990s to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, that had cost Boeing most of its business. But Mulally’s biggest accomplishment in Seattle was saving Boeing from itself. Now Bill Ford Jr. was asking him to do the same thing with Ford. It was a daunting task. Ford—the company that put the world on wheels—was on the verge of bankruptcy. For decades, it had been fighting a losing battle against foreign automakers that not only made better cars, but also did so more efficiently and at substantially lower cost.

Attending trade shows is a big investment in time and money but works on a number of levels and it can be an extremely cost-effective way to develop leads and make sales if properly planned. Sustainable success is only likely to develop with regular year-on-year attendance at the same shows demonstrating your credibility, stability and long-term intention in the market. It may take several years of attendance at the same show before potential customers start to develop stronger interest in your company. Taking part in overseas shows and exhibitions is a considerable cost- although the SMMT UK Group Pavilion format and UKTI Tradeshow Access Grant scheme support can substantially reduce costs compared to “going it alone”. Skilful planning and execution, before, during and after the trade show, is essential to get results and the following checklist of 12 points might help you get the most from future events: 1. Set objectives – Understand what you want to achieve and who on the stand is tasked to do what each day. You may want to increase market share, introduce new products or services, check out competitors, meet and socialise with existing clients, meet / train agents or distributors, etc.

    Comparison of Passenger Vehicle Fuel Economy and Greenhouse Gas Emission Standards Around the World

    COMPARISON OF PASSENGER VEHICLE FUEL ECONOMY AND GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION STANDARDS AROUND THE WORLD Prepared for the Pew Center on Global Climate Change Feng An ENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION TECHNOLOGIES LLC Amanda Sauer WORLD RESOURCES INSTITUTE COMPARISON OF PASSENGER VEHICLE FUEL ECONOMY AND GHG EMISSION STANDARDS AROUND THE WORLD Prepared for the Pew Center on Global Climate Change Feng An ENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION TECHNOLOGIES LLC Amanda Sauer WORLD RESOURCES INSTITUTE December 2004 The Pew Center and the authors would like to thank John DeCicco of Environmental Defense, Lew Fulton of the International Energy Agency, Paul Khanna of Natural Resources Canada, and Michael Walsh for their helpful comments on a previous draft of this report. Executive Summary Nine major regions around the world have implemented or proposed various fuel economy and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards. Yet these standards are not easily comparable, due to differences in policy approaches, test drive cycles, and units of measurement. This paper develops a methodology to compare these programs to better understand their relative stringency. The results are summarized by Figure ES. Key findings from the report include: ¤ The European Union (EU) and Japan have the most stringent standards in the world. ¤ The fuel economy and greenhouse gas emission performance of the U.S. cars and light trucks—both historically and projected based on current policies—lags behind most other nations. The United States and Canada have the lowest standards in terms of fleet-average fuel economy rating, and they have the highest greenhouse gas emission rates based on the EU testing procedure. ¤ The new Chinese standards are more stringent than those in Australia, Canada, California, and the United States, but they are less stringent than those in the European Union and Japan.
