Links in the Chain of Success
Supplier companies now deliver over 60 percent of our vehicle parts. These suppliers produce effective, synergistic results and innovative directions for the entire Volkswagen Group. Therefore, procurement is a crucial interface function where all links connect. And our goal is to continually strengthen the critical links between technical development, marketing, production and suppliers.
A global network of purchasing offices backs our sourcing processes. All key decisions on awarding contracts are made by a central decision committee, and decisions are made taking into consideration regional conditions and brand participation.
