How component shortages are changing the construction equipment industry
By Wilfried Aulbur and Giovanni Schelfi
New study by Roland Berger and Off-Highway Research examines the causes and effects of ongoing component scarcity affecting construction equipment
Roland Berger and Off-Highway Research explore causes of the shortages, and how leading construction equipment companies think about this growing and seemingly non-transitory challenge. We also share our view on how to navigate these challenges, address short-, medium-, and long-term uncertainty, and propose key strategies to transform industry supply from a simple delivery function into a critical value driver.
