Abstract
The objective of this paper is to identify ways to mitigate challenges related to the interaction between the project teams of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) companies, mainly automotive manufacturers and suppliers in Brazil. The study takes place in the New Product Development (NPD) phase when there is early involvement of key suppliers from the project planning phase working with Research and Development (R&D) project management. The importance of the research is due to the presentation of ways to mitigate the interaction challenges by preparing a guide or framework to support planning for project managers (PM). The work is a data collection from literature of OEM and suppliers experience during NPD activities about challenges and ways to mitigate them. The expected outcome is innovation through the proposed compendium of Challenges and Mitigation Process that will assist PMs in future endeavors by anticipating challenges and improving the planning of project activities. This paper contributes to improve project outputs, risk management and final product quality mainly helping OEMs and suppliers in Brazil.
