Titel
Potentials and challenges in the supply industry in eastern Europe/Aree - the SP+ concept for enterprises to participate in supplier parks
Abstract
In 2008 within a 300 km radius of Vienna eleven assembly plants will produce more than three million cars. This implies a business opportunity for suppliers amounting to about 20 billion euros within the AREE. To participate in this boom, a local production factory close to the customers can be a key advantage for suppliers. Supplier Parks are an alternative to the high risk option of building a separate factory. A Supplier Park reduces the suppliers' overall investment and operating costs because of synergy effects. Moerover the Supplier Park + concept offers an intelligent solution for integrating suppliers that have a plant close to a park, which enables them to share in the benefits of Supplier Parks.
