Vendor Partnerships in the Indian Automobile Industry
3. The Conceptual Framework
- Need for study specific to EVs in India rather than generic to the automobile sector or industry.
- Need for India-specific study on E2Ws.
- Need for specific topics of research to consider developing country like India.
- Need to incorporate and integrate social issues in SSCM performance.
- Need to further research on vendors/suppliers’ partnership or collaboration on sustainable supply chain performance.
- Need to focus investigation of SSCM performance to a particular type of industry to have consistency in results, which in this case would be the EV sector in India and specifically E2W sector.
- Assessment of critical factors of suppliers’ partnership influencing industry’s performance.
- Evolve suitable sustainable supply chain practices to tap significant opportunities expected in the EV/E2W industry in future.
- Assessment of GoI support for the E2W industry, and influence of State Government’s policies on the development of ecosystem, especially for undertaking E2W manufacture.
- A framework for further research on investigation of other variables like technology, human resources, investment, operations, vis à vis industries’ performance.
- Creating awareness among the E2W industry on the opportunities existing and also solutions for the supply chain challenges related to E2W work packages.
- Academic institutions collaboration for E2W research and development activities.
- The current study is expected to help practitioners of not only the E2W industry but also other manufacturing industries for overcoming supply chain challenges.
4. Future Research and Conclusions
4.1. Limitations
4.2. Discussion
4.2.1. Theoretical
4.2.2. Managerial
4.2.3. Areas for Future Research
- Research on E2W penetration, proliferation in India and globally, including studying its role in expediting the shift from ICE. Further analysis on buyer behavior towards EV purchase and barriers.
- Research on alternate elements for future batteries with corresponding impact on geopolitics, including geopolitical aspects of dependence on lithium., e.g., research on materials like sodium for batteries. Research will also focus on other propulsion technologies like hydrogen and solar driven.
- For balance, future research can also explore the negative impact of EVs on society, environment, industry, supply chain, etc. Examples include disposal of existing ICE vehicles, and EV batteries, which will be a logistics and environmental nightmare.
- More in-depth analysis of the social impacts of EV industries.
- Research on supply chain of automobile ICE industries vis à vis the EV industry, and changes necessitated. Supply chain involved in the eventual and perhaps inevitable re-purposing of ICE automobile factories into EV production lines, and the consequent evolving of vendors for this change, could be studied.
- The supply chain and logistics aspects that determine the choice of location for setting up an EV plant.
