14. The Big Three: Can They Build a Car Together? GM, Ford, Chrysler are asked to build a vehicle following strict consumer requirements and industry standards. Criteria: – Must follow industry emission standards – Must follow minimum height standards – Must meet minimum fuel efficiency standards – Must follow minimum safety standards – Must meet minimum capacity standards

15. Independently… Each company built a product on the standards they believed the consumer requested Each vehicle meets the standards required, but at different levels and priorities.

16. Humpty Dumpty............ We now have a vehicle that meets safety standards, emission standards, height standards, fuel efficiency standards and capacity standards, however….. The vehicle can’t be put together!

17. Working Together When all three companies agree on the standards and criteria, the industry can build a product: the consumer wants that fits together
