Supplier support FFI 2023

Purpose and goal: ** Denna text är maskinöversatt **

The automotive industry in 2023 is noticeably undergoing a major change where companies are switching to electrified mobility primarily on the passenger car side. FFI´s most important task is collaboration where vehicle manufacturers, suppliers, institutes and academia work together and strengthen the Swedish automotive industry. In some cases, the Swedish automotive industry also saves.

For us in the supplier industry, FFI is extremely important and a prerequisite for maintaining competitiveness. Expected results and effects: ** Denna text är maskinöversatt **

It is difficult to measure the outcome, but we are getting clear signals that other countries´ suppliers are notifying and cutting back on volume and personnel, while this is not happening in Sweden. We are well placed to have technology and knowledge that is still attractive. FFI contributes to this and the project that were carried out a number of years ago are now implemented.

Approach and implementation: ** Denna text är maskinöversatt **

We have informed about FFI via a number of channels and discussed with companies how they should succeed in creating an FFI project or take part in project. We know that the suppliers manufacture 70% of a vehicle and the Swedish OEMs have access to good technology, which makes them competitive. We also participate in all activities that FFI carries out and we inform about the activities to our 300 members plus others in the supply chain who are affected
