| Tiivistelmä: | The automotive industry is at a critical juncture in its evolution. Vehicle manufacturers are merging horizon- tally into large portfolio-oriented companies focused on assembly and marketing while reducing their in-house de- velopment and manufacturing depth in favor of a multi-tier supplier base. This realignment has increased organizational flexibility and global technology access, but concerns have been raised about the industry's ability to manage complex product programs across multi-tier interfaces - and about knowledge leaks to competitors. In this paper we argue that these virtually integrated enterprises are not well served by hierarchial planning tools and dedicated communications networks. Instead, distributed intelligence in an open- architecture and secure enterprise network provides the connectivity needed for product development and delivery. |
