Senior executives from Lear, Johnson Controls, TRW Automotive, Yazaki, American Axle & Manufacturing and many more will be present to network and discuss the big issues in automotive collaboration.
EyeForAuto's e-Collaboration & e-Supply Chain Management Conference 2001 will be looking at the challenges and opportunities within product development and how the Web is leading suppliers to develop and design collaboratively. Executives will assemble at the Cobo Center for two days on Oct. 3 & 4 to discuss and debate the future strategies and business models for the automotive industry.
At the end of the first day, delegates will have the opportunity to attend an exclusive workshop from Covisint. This will explore the impact of collaborative product development and how to effectively integrate, via the Internet in a secure environment, a product development and supply community.
William Pumphrey, president of the Lear Electronics and Electrical Division, Lear Corp., who is speaking at the conference, quoted recently in EyeForAuto e-Business Update Magazine: "What's really new is the digitization of this collaboration. Before, we would often work on our own design systems internally, but then have to produce hard copy diagrams and schematics to transfer the work between the customer and the supplier."
Conference sponsors already include PricewaterhouseCoopers, KPMG Consulting, SDRC, UGS and Adexa.
