Basic policy for procurement
- Perform strategic procurement with a global outlook (not paying regard to whether suppliers are based in Japan or overseas).
- For each order genre (product item), strengthen relationships with partners that have high levels of technology and management, which contain the future relationships with new partners.
- Strive to achieve target costs by cutting total costs.
- Employ information technology to enhance the intensity and speed of information exchange with partners.
- Strictly ensure legal compliance.
- Achieve procurement that reflects environmental considerations.
Basic policy for engagement of new
- Companies must desire to work in unison with the design and materials personnel and work toward cost improvements on new models and strategically important models.
- Companies must have high levels of technological ability and a broad range of abilities to accommodate our needs.
[Examples]- Companies must have the ability to accommodate requirements from raw materials through to processing.
- Companies must be able to accommodate tasks from part procurement through to subassembly.
- Companies must have in-house design and development capabilities.
- Companies must vigorously take part in VE activities and must be able and willing to give us proposals for cost improvement.
- Companies must have overseas production bases and be able to supply parts that are lower-priced than domestically made ones. NOTE: We set no conditions on corporate group affiliations and physical locations of companies. With any company that meets the needs outlined above, we may request a technical presentation be made to our design personnel at our premises.
- Currently, we provides a Web-based system (called the J-Pro system) that enables two-way electronic information exchange with partners. For companies that are newly engaged, a system environment and technological level enabling utilization of this system will be required.
