Automotive Industry Plant Closures, Outsourcing, Recalls: Implications For Automation Vendors

PALO ALTO, Calif., March 23 /PRNewswire/ -- The Industrial Automation and Electronics group at Frost & Sullivan ( http://www.industrialautomation.frost.com ) will host an analyst briefing teleconference on Wednesday, March 29, 2006 at 1 p.m. EST.

As competition revs up in the automotive industry, automation and software vendors are expected to partner with their automotive customers to help them achieve operational efficiency. Faced with a host of regulatory compliance issues, automotive manufacturers look towards automation and software vendors to enable production and monitoring of high quality products at lower costs on a global platform.

Highlights of the briefing will include: an analysis of the automation and software market for the automotive industry, market opportunities and market growth factors.

"Even as GM and Ford announce widespread restructuring over the next few years, automation vendors can take comfort from the fact that Asian automakers are building more plants and ramping up capacity in parts of North America," says Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Sanjeev Sridharan. "With a lot of automotive manufacturers and suppliers looking at low-cost regions in Asia and Eastern Europe, the demand for automation and software seems to be coming from the booming automotive market of China."

This briefing will benefit automation and software vendors, automation resellers, system integrators and IT service providers.
