The manager of a tier 1 automotive supplier decided to relocate the production of interior vehicle components to a best-cost location. The task assignment for the interim manager was to bring the quality of the BCL production up to series capability and to demonstrate process reliability to the OEM for the manufactured subassemblies. It was crucial for the interim manager providing this support to have expertise in the industrialisation of complex subassemblies with plastic, metal and electronic system components. In addition, a professional persona in the customer area was considered important, both for the communication between the sending and receiving plant during the transfer of production and in the role of the main contact for the OEM.
