Russian parts lower cars' quality!
American automakers GM and Ford appealed to the Russian manufacturers of auto deal, finally, improving the quality of their products. To this end, both companies have created special Web sites for suppliers, where the popular explanation, which should meet the requirements of supplied products.
The quality of Russian auto complaints is long, but when it came to the market, foreign automakers, the Russians promised to improve. Almost all the foreign automakers are currently working on the decree number 166 of the Government of the Russian Federation “On promsborke, which provides for localization of production. Some foreigners brought with them their regular partners - manufacturers of auto components, but at least 30% of components must be of Russian origin.
Meanwhile, the newspaper told Automotive News Europe Chief Procurement Officer GM Europe Eric Alstrom, Russian spare parts are still are very poor quality. Normal until the details can only boast of producing rugs yes Dvornikov. Only 5% of all 300 Russian companies - auto manufacturers, according to the expert in charge of western standards of quality. GM manager said that the need is particularly great for manufacturers who are engaged in production of high-tech components. “We have good suppliers of forging parts rezinoizdely, melochevki different, but we have weak suppliers of parts, requiring technological expertise,” - said E. Alstrom.
Now the European division GM recruited a team which will work with Russian suppliers. According to E. Alstroma, the company expects in the three months to justify their expectations of work with Russian suppliers.
Americans from the GM has supported Ford. Director of Procurement Ford in Russia Arndt Furman confirmed that an adequate number of manufacturers of Automotive, very little, and it can be seen as a problem. “We are not going to save the quality, - said A. Furman. - But quality requires adequate control over suppliers, which will take time. ”
Most automakers in Russia now looks forward to the imported parts, including car and home. The main partner in this case for Russians to become the Canadian Magna. Currently, Magna is considering just the four building factories for the production of Automotive in Russia: one in conjunction with VAZom, another gas, the third with a juice, and the fourth or her or to someone else.
The Strategic Mission of the Department of Magna in Togliatti confirmed that discusses various projects for the construction of the JV. “There is a decision that the Magna plant in Russia will be, - the manager of strategic development and matchmaking Magna Igor Miroshnichenko. - We are looking for potential partners. It may be their own factories. ” Report details of the manager refused. But noted that talk about the poor quality of Russian spare parts, it would be wrong. The problem lies in the Soviet era, because the manufacturing plants are outdated and long-term technology and product quality of attention is not paid.
To date, the problem of Russia’s auto is in three areas: design obsolete, old technology, low quality of performance. You should now have all the good work, and, apparently, Magna is prepared to make a breakthrough in this field.
Also in the representation of Magna noted that improving the quality of auto inevitably entails a rise in the cost of the car. Therefore, those companies that promise the best quality without the cost, a car, yet to think of how to do this. Alone, it has most likely not be so - it must be the fruit of joint work of foreigners and Russian plants.
