在汽车工业全球化的时代，设计-制造接口的重要性增加了，汽车制造商需要满足全球范围内各种各样的客户需求。然而，关于汽车行业的研究还没有完全形成与产品多样性相关的设计-制造界面的理论洞察力。本白皮书旨在通过比较日本和德国汽车制造商的工业实践，为管理动态产品多样性提供洞察力。我们基于藤本的单祖库能力概念和加尔布雷斯的信息处理模型的框架，分析了动态变化和单祖库能力。通过这样做，我们的目的是强调日本汽车行业在汽车行业全球化时代的有效性和局限性。
The importance of the design-manufacturing interface has increased in the age of the globalization of the automotive industry in which automakers need to meet a wide variety of customer demands globally. However, studies on the automotive industry have not yet fully developed a theoretical insight into the design-manufacturing interface in connection with product variety. This paper aims to provide insights intomonozukuri(“manufacturing” in a broad sense, including production, product development, and supply chain management) capability for managing dynamic product variety by comparing industrial practices between Japanese and German automakers. We analyze dynamic variety and monozukuri capability based on the framework that connects Fujimoto's concept of monozukuri capability to Galbraith's information processing model. By doing so, we aim to highlight the effectiveness and limitations of the Japanese automotive industry in the age of the globalization of the automotive industry.
