About SupplierBusiness

SupplierBusiness is a business research company focused on automotive supply base issues. We provide the most comprehensive coverage of the global automotive supplier community, adding between twenty and thirty original stories to our archives on developments every week. All editorial coverage is originally researched by SupplierBusiness, and most appears exclusively in SupplierBusiness' weekly Insight or monthly Analysis newsletters, both of which are published both on this website and in PDF format. In addition to these subscription products, we also publish and compile reports and databases on the global supply base.

Our Coverage
We analyse purchasing and product development strategies at OEMs, and put those together with the supplier viewpoint on those same processes through regular surveys of leading automotive suppliers. We also cover the evolving range of business models followed by suppliers through analysis of strategies across key decision making areas, such as finance, marketing, new product development, human resources and purchasing, together with its partners at investment banks, consultancies and suppliers around the world.

SupplierBusiness also undertakes surveys of developments in the industry and the supplier community, and is widely recognised for its serious and original research into topics of importance to the global automotive supply base.
