China's spare parts enterprises should develop to specialization

Since China's accession to the WTO, the procurement system of the automobile industry has gradually become internationalized. However, the status quo of the domestic auto parts market is scattered, and it is difficult in terms of technology and scale to compete with large international companies such as Bosch and Delphi. contend. To engage in specialized production and make the spare parts of their own companies the most refined and best part of the development of our parts and components companies.

Judging from the current stage, the overall characteristics of China's domestic auto parts companies are that they tend to increase their product development efforts, such as brakes, wheels, etc., with relatively little technical content and relatively low investment in technology, and can demonstrate advantages in cost control. Dong Jianping, Secretary General of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, said in an interview: “There are many deep-seated problems in the auto parts industry in China that have affected the continuous, steady, and healthy development of the parts and components industry, and adjustment of the structure is a long-term solution. Therefore, we must handle the relationship between the short-term and long-term, while ensuring growth and expansion of domestic demand, we must also pay attention to solving the structural problems in the spare parts industry." Therefore, he suggested that the state should study the issue. Encourage policies to guide the healthy development of the parts industry. In order to solve the problems of small production quantities, decentralized production, and low-level redundant construction of parts and components companies in China, the state should support leading small-sized enterprises specializing in spare parts to become bigger and stronger.

The specialization of the automobile industry is the result of the continuous advancement and evolution of the division of labor in different sectors of the automobile industry. With the development of large-scale production in the automobile industry, the division of labor and cooperation between the industry and the enterprise has been continuously refined and deepened. An automobile product is often not completed by a single company. An enterprise produces a certain part of a car product and provides a certain process or a certain technical service. The production system of specialized division of labor in the whole process of the automobile products has strongly promoted the reform of the automobile industry and promoted the great development of the automobile industry.

In general, the development direction of auto parts specialization mainly has the following seven aspects:

I. The auto parts company’s independence is enhanced. It faces the entire automotive industry and faces the global market, freeing itself from the nature of providing a single service to a car manufacturer.

2. Continuously realize the application of system integration for hi-tech products, enhance product modular supply capacity, and continuously develop emerging markets for auto parts;

3. Make a strong information-based transformation of traditional parts and components, which is still an important part of the auto parts market;

Fourth, to strengthen basic research and achieve original innovation, and provide synchronous engineering and advanced engineering services for the development of new automobiles;

V. Significant changes have taken place in the industrial structure of auto parts. The number of first-class parts suppliers will be greatly reduced, and the number of second-, third- and fourth-tier parts suppliers will increase significantly to achieve specialization. Great extension of industry chain and industrial restructuring;

6. All parts and components companies, regardless of their size, must strive to enhance the company's global influence and brand power and enhance its international competitiveness.

7. Constantly change marketing channels and methods, and build a good service network.

The fierce market competition will inevitably urge companies to spare no effort in adopting new technologies, especially innovations with independent intellectual property rights, so as to maintain a competitive advantage in the market. At present, we already have a number of professional auto parts companies that have a considerable level. Although they still have many gaps with multinational auto parts companies, their rise has set an example for China’s auto parts companies. We have confidence that we can surpass the world’s advanced level.
