ARROYO LOPEZ, Pilar Ester e CARCAMO SOLIS, María de Lourdes. Comparative study about supplier development in two industry branches: automotive and textile & apparel. Contad. Adm [online]. 2009, n.228, pp.105-126. ISSN 0186-1042.
This work explores the effect that globalization has had over the actions deployed by suppliers and buyers to improve the capabilities of local producers in the automotive and textile & apparel branches. The automotive branch has maintained its competitiveness and contribution to the Mexican economy, while the textile & apparel branch has lost competitiveness against international producers; therefore it was relevant to analyze how each branches has faced the problem to improve the supplier's capabilities. The analysis of multiple case studies allowed the identification of different actions and structures for supplier development programs; one of the most outstanding differences between the programs in the two sectors is the active and direct participation of the leader firms in the automotive supply chain, this difference helps in explaining the competitiveness differential between both branches.
