Tata competitors had good customer base, vendor base, more efficient cars in terms of fuel which also led to …show more content…
One biggest challenge for Tata motors was that it does not have efficient tools for manufacturing small passenger cars, and also lacking behind in network for vendors, the network which Tata motors had was not sufficient for providing support to manufacturing of small cars.
Tata motors does not planned any research programme for marketing business of small cars, they have not focused on collecting the data from the market about the customers preferences , their taste what kind of small cars customers prefers.

Ratan Tata himself was the most important part of this project he headed the project right from the scratch to rollout. Focused on coordinating activities as per the value chain. They setups their on engineering research centres in Pune. Tata motors preferred to manufacture its most of activities in-house. They installed their on manufacturing facilities to manufacture gearboxes, engines, transmission mechanisms, sub- assemblies and body panels. They built their own machine tools division first in the country with too that of four robots and developed a computerized numerically controlled machines for different manufacturing
