I believe the strength of Japan’s automotive industry lies in its resilient supply chain. And what supports that supply chain is the technological capability of each and every company.
It is important to identify the core technologies that define your company’s strengths and to pursue them to the fullest, with the aim of winning through those technologies. Innovation can only come from technological capability. The depth to which you can refine your technology is the foundation of industrial competitiveness.
I also believe there is still room to improve productivity.
If we look at productivity from three perspectives—materials, equipment, and people—it’s important to question any assumptions we may be taking for granted.
Do those conditions really have to be that way? If the root causes lie upstream or downstream in the process, then changing them could lead to higher productivity.
By taking this kind of approach, and by continuing to focus on technology within each company, I believe we can become an even stronger group.
I would very much like to work together with you.
