In the growing African automotive industry original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and other companies seek out suppliers with a balance of local and global expertise. SPX companies provide the knowledge as well as products and services needed.
One of the ways SPX is helping the automotive engineering industry in Africa is through the provision of a full range of technical and documentation services.
For example, SPX is helping the Ford Motor Company with centralized production of its owner guides for its markets in Africa and Asia Pacific. (See the press release announcing the project.)
Coordinating the content of the owner guides in Ford’s many markets will help ensure consistency and synergy across multiple vehicle platforms and configurations, and ultimately help provide top quality information to vehicle owners.
