Evaluation of the Saxony Automotive Supplier Network (AMZ) 2003 to 2006

Establishing the predominantly small-sized Saxon suppliers permanently in the automotive value creation chain and safeguarding their existence from the initial idea to the SOP, i. e. the start of mass production – this was one of the primary reasons for AMZ’s founding almost a decade ago.  This book documents the results of the evaluation of the Saxony Automotive Supplier Network (AMZ) for the period between 2003 and 2006. 

The book costs EUR 25.00 including VAT and is currently only available in German.

A great part of these developments and productions – around 70% - is not done by the well-known vehicle labels, though by relatively unknown suppliers..."
