It helps examine an OEM-oriented model in which technical engagement and procurement relationships can shape access to vehicle programmes, while machining, assembly, materials, quality control and supplier coordination influence delivery economics.

Rivalry can be shaped by competing suppliers seeking programme awards; buyer power reflects OEM purchasing scale, qualification demands and switching considerations. Supplier power matters where materials or specialised inputs must meet strict specifications.
