Abstract

There are four market forces which are developing gradually towards a mobility industry – from different directions and with different business competences. In addition to vehicle manufacturers, these include technology and electronics companies, public transport companies and mobility service providers. But influences from elsewhere can also be expected: from political regulations to evolving societal expectations of mobility, and economic uncertainties. What does this mean for the automotive industry? How can its enterprise architecture be adapted in such a way that it is equipped in the best possible way for the change? Chap. 4 attempts to provide an answer to this question.
