About the practice

The automotive industry is changing its products, its technology and its supply base in the same decade. Electrification, software-defined vehicles and new competitors put pressure on carmakers and suppliers alike.

Our Principals have held senior roles at manufacturers, suppliers and mobility providers. They help leadership teams reshape portfolios and footprints, secure supply chains, cut cost and lead the transformation programmes that keep businesses competitive.

We work close to engineering, purchasing and production, where most of the change has to happen. Where a business is under pressure, Principals take on interim roles and lead restructuring together with management and lenders.

Portfolio and footprint, supply chain and purchasing, cost and performance, restructuring and transformation.
