forecasting affects the supply chain

Question description

 

 

Discuss how forecasting effects the supply chain of an automobile manufacturer.  Consider especially the forecasting and supply chains involved in manufacturing a new model (entirely new, not an edition/annual change).  How do the individual supply chains for the subparts effect the larger supply chain of the whole automobile.  How does forecasting effect the just-in-time or lean production system used in most automobile manufacturing plants?

Example of a typical automobile supply chain:

  1. Suppliers for raw materials
  2. Suppliers for parts and subsystems
  3. Automobile manufacturer (Ford, in the example).  Within a company, there are also different departments, which constitute the internal supply chain:
    1. Purchasing and material handling
    2. Manufacturing
    3. Marketing, etc.
  4. Transportation providers
  5. Automobile dealers
