“…Brazilian automotive industry, besides its importance to Brazil economy, is considered very meaningful to automotive industry in general. With several multinational brands operating in a country with structural, technological and regulatory problems, it is very important to identify how to improve its productivity and overall product appeal (Keese et al, 2014;Pascoal et al, 2017) that could be used in other markets. The chosen focal company is relevant in this context because it is an auto parts company that fulfills the main Tier 1 suppliers and automakers in Brazil.…”

The aim of this paper is to identify whether in an automotive industry context with structural, technological and regulatory problems, information systems help the new product development (NPD) process to achieve development time reduction, cost reduction and product quality improvement due to an easier and more accurate data exchange or only because they allow faster information sharing among chain members. The research was developed using a qualitative and descriptive methodology and adopted as focal company a Brazilian auto parts company in order to evaluate its relationships with three suppliers and its three largest customers, composing three different supply chains (SCs). Results suggest that information systems have been widely used as tools for collaboration among the SC members, with expressive gains in competitiveness because it makes data exchange faster. Nevertheless, significant shortcomings still exist, especially regarding system integration and the consequent integration level among SC members.

“…The technological issues are related to the cost of accessing and developing new technologies, including hardware and information systems. As far as regulatory problems go, automotive executives are asking for more transparency in the guidelines/rules on the subject (Keese et al, 2014;Pascoal et al, 2017).…”

“…Estabeleceu, por um lado, cotas de importação para as marcas sem fábrica no Brasil, levando algumas delas a erguer plantas, caso de BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar Land Rover, Chery e Jeep, as quais ficaram livres para importar quantos veículos quisessem por ano, pagando a alíquota normal de 35%. Por outro lado, as marcas que não seguiram esse caminho (Volvo, Kia, Lifan e Jac Motors, entre outras) e preferiram continuar apenas como importadoras, ficaram com uma cota anual de apenas 4.800 unidades anuais e, acima disso, obrigadas a pagar uma sobretaxa de 30% (DUTRA, 2017;PASCOAL et al, 2017). O então Ministério do Desenvolvimento, Indústria, Comércio Exterior e Serviços (MDIC) estabeleceu três segmentos como os beneficiados pela nova política industrial: os fabricantes domésticos que já produziam veículos no país; as empresas sem manufatura, mas com comércio no Brasil; e as empresas com capacidade de investir em produção doméstica (PASCOAL et al, 2017).…”

“…A hipótese lançada, portanto, sugere que o Inovar-Auto e mesmo o Rota 2030 re-sultaram de pressões e lobbies das corporações instaladas no Brasil há mais tempo, isto é, as first comers e as latecomers do setor automotivo. As montadoras instaladas no Brasil se dividiriam em três grupos, segundo o ciclo de execução dos seus investimentos originais: as first comers, instaladas até a década de 1970; as latecomers, implantadas entre a segunda metade da década de 1990 e o final dos anos 2000; e as newcomers, que são as mais recentes, isto é, instaladas após a entrada em vigor do Inovar--Auto (PASCOAL et al, 2017).…”

O artigo analisa a construção do Programa Inovar-Auto, política industrial brasileira cunhada com o propósito de incrementar os investimentos em pesquisa, desenvolvimento e engenharia na indústria automotiva. A discussão tem como finalidade contribuir para demarcar as estratégias corporativas dos grupos automobilísticos, indicando como as políticas industriais para o setor são moldadas sob medida, a fim de proteger os interesses das empresas há mais tempo em atuação no Brasil. O Inovar-Auto, por hipótese, resulta de processos sociais responsáveis por estruturar as relações entre organizações incumbentes e desafiantes em disputa no mercado automotivo. Em outros termos, o seu surgimento se deve à queda de preços decorrente da entrada de firmas desafiantes no mercado nacional, e da resposta dada pelas firmas incumbentes ao aumento da competição através do reforço de regras, leis de proteção e demais formas de poder capazes de impedir qualquer movimento de transformação dessa ordem econômica e social.AbstractThis paper analyses the construction of the Inovar-Auto programme, a Brazilian industrial policy devised with the goal of boosting investment in research, development and engineering in the automotive industry. The purpose of this discussion is that of contributing to define the corporate strategies of industrial groups in the automotive industry, showing how the industrial policies for the sector are carved out to measure, in order to protect the interests of those companies that have been in Brazil the longest. Inovar-Auto could possibly have resulted from social processes responsible for structuring the relationships between incumbent organisations and challengers within the automotive market. In other words, its appearance is due to the fall in prices resulting from the entry of new challengers onto the national market, and the response given by the incumbent companies to the increased competition, through reinforcement of rules, laws for protection, and other ways of being able to prevent any movement for the transformation of the economic and social order.

“…In this context, the Brazilian government has been aiming to encourage the growth and competitiveness of the automotive sector in Brazil in the past years; Inovar-Auto program was one of these relatively recent initiatives (Pascoal et al, 2017). Moreover, Brazil is one of the main markets among the emerging countries and, consequently, large American, European, and Asian firms (assemblers and suppliers) have invested in the country since the 1990s (Humphrey, 2003).…”

Paper aims: Although many researchers have identified important factors for project success, there is no consensus with regard to all the factors that influence project success. This work aims to assess organizational factors that influence project success in automotive firms. Originality: Few studies have analyzed the integrated relationship between organizational factors and project success. Research method: The study carries out a quantitative survey on a sample of 72 companies. Data were analyzed through confirmatory factor analysis. Main findings: The results show that the variable that most influences project success is 'organizational culture', followed by 'change management', and 'top management support'. The results also indicate that a culture of flexibility and a climate that supports innovation tend to positively influence project performance. Implications for theory and practice: The findings suggest that it is relevant to focus attention on human resource development, empowerment, and teamwork within the context of project management.
