Case Study: Foreign-Owned Auto Supplier achieves profitable turnaround with AlixPartners

Foreign-Owned Auto Supplier - Customer Case Study

Foreign-Owned Auto Supplier worked with AlixPartners after its Americas division lost profitability and was heading toward bankruptcy. The division had taken on too many launches, underquoted programs, suffered from weak operations and poor planning, and lacked aligned leadership and metrics across its plants.

AlixPartners used its QuickStrike® diagnostic and a collaborative turnaround approach to reset pricing, renegotiate supplier and customer terms, improve operations, strengthen leadership, and implement hundreds of improvement initiatives. The result was a more competitive and sustainable business, with EBIT improving by more than 13 percentage points and continued momentum after the one-year engagement.
