Chapter-3 | Treating Vendors as Partners | Vector Consulting Group

In this 3rd chapter, Mr R.C. Bhargava, in conversation with Satyashri Mohanty, highlights how Maruti played a crucial role in the creation of the auto component industry in the country.

Drawing from Maruti’s journey of creating India’s auto component ecosystem, he shares:
Why OeMs need to play an active role in enhancing the quality of their suppliers

⁠Why paying vendors on time is absolutely critical

How to create green channels to avoid the cost of multiple inspections

How is it essential to help vendors become more productive and then share the productivity gains rather than just pressuring vendors on cost reduction
How Maruti supported vendors with critical knowledge around technology and processes⁠

Maruti’s approach helped shape India’s $70 billion auto component industry.

This chapter offers a powerful lesson in building a resilient ecosystem for the country's manufacturing industry.
