Press Release Body = The OEM sourcing policy guide provides a unique insight into
vehicle manufacturer sourcing strategies, and is an essential tool for program and
customer screening by suppliers.

It provides insights from other suppliers and statements from the vehicle
manufacturers themselves about the focus of their current purchasing policy, and how
that affects other parts of their product development and manufacturing strategy, as
well as providing an independent perspective on the supplier base's experience of
those policies in reality.

For car makers the supplier does not have already as a client, the studies provide
an introduction into the requirements of the vehicle maker, and an idea of when the
critical new model launches that they wish to win will start to source systems and
components.

The reports build on research undertaken in past AutoBusiness reports and regular
news and analysis and brings it together with an OEM focus. They will be of interest
to all those looking to keep up-to-date with developments in the major vehicle
assemblers either as customers or prospects.

The profiles provide input into customer and program analysis and screening by
supplier executives concerned with their company\'s strategic development.

The first three reports in the series look at the purchasing strategies of BMW,
DaimlerChrysler and Volkswagen. Each report includes:

Purchasing strategy - including interviews with senior purchasing executives
· Directory of senior purchasing executives at each OEM
