Mitsui Mining & Smelting to Rebuild Cost Control for Auto Parts

摘要

Mitsui Mining & Smelting rebuilds up cost management for its automotive parts production worldwide. The firm manufactures automotive parts of approximately 20,000 items, such as door locks, at world 17 plants mainly in Japan, USA, Thailand and China. In recent years distribution costs of semi-finished auto parts have increased among the plants and impacted the business profitability. Mitsui Mining & Smelting tries to establish a unified cost control system for all plants by rechecking total costs per each auto part.
