Growing consumer demand coupled with improving purchasing power and increase in exports of small cars are driving automakers and OEM suppliers in the region to expand production facilities to meet these demands. In addition, with a large base of skilled workforce, favourable tax incentives offered by governments, lower costs and technologically advanced R&D facilities, large international OEMs from mature markets of Europe and the US have begun to outsource critical design and engineering services and increase their investments in the region further driving domestic automobile manufacturers to expand production facilities.
The report forecasts the IT spending of the Automobile Industry in APAC over the period 2007-2010. It is meant for IT vendors and intends to help them identify selling opportunities in the Automobile Industry in APAC.

Industry trends and drivers have a direct or indirect affect on IT spending of all companies operating within an industry. For example – increased threat perception and incidence of fraud would result in increase in demand for security software and hardware. Thus, we can conclude that industry spending on any particular IT product or service is an important indicator of the criticality of that product or service for the industry. Based on the IT spend information available in ‘TechNavioTM’, we have computed a ‘criticality score’ for various IT products and services, for Toyota Motor Corporation, Honda Motor Co. Ltd and Suzuki Motor Corporation .
Through an in-depth analysis of industry trends and drivers and company level developments and events, we have made the ‘IT Selling Opportunities Map’ for hardware, software and IT services for Toyota Motor Corporation, Honda Motor Co.

Level I opportunity areas have the highest scores and hence, there is a high probability that Toyota Motor Corporation, Honda Motor Co. Ltd and Suzuki Motor Corporation will buy these products and services. Level II opportunity areas have lower scores and hence, lower probability to sell to Toyota Motor Corporation, Honda Motor Co. Ltd and Suzuki Motor Corporation. Level III opportunities have the lowest scores and hence, unlikely to sell to Toyota Motor Corporation, Honda Motor Co. Ltd and Suzuki Motor Corporation.
The report is meant for IT vendors and intends to help them identify selling opportunities within the company.
