Abstract: The automotive industry has seen a steady movement towards more complexinter-organisational structures and co-ordination mechanisms between car manufacturers and their suppliers. Increasingly, manufacturers are ngaging in long-term stable relationships with their suppliers as opposed to the traditional arm's length arrangements, characterised by conflicting interests. Changes in the competitive environment drove car manufacturers to restructure their supply chains and rely increasingly on effective co-ordination of their logistical activi-ties.
