The Renault-Nissan Purchasing Organisation  is celebrating its seventh anniversary by expanding its scope to cover 90% of the Alliance’s purchasing turnover.


RNPO purchases will reach EUR60bn (US$94.7bn and JPY9.4 trillion) in 2008 compared to EUR58bn (USD91.5bn and JPY9.1 trillion) in 2007, the automaker said.


RNPO previously controlled about 83% of Alliance purchasing but, from 1 April, became responsible for 100% of Renault and Nissan’s parts purchases.


“Acting as a single purchasing organisation for both Renault and Nissan, RNPO has accelerated purchasing performance by implementing a global management system within the Alliance,” it said in a statement.


“Focused on purchasing competitiveness through quality, cost and delivery, RNPO is a key competitive advantage for both partners. Going forward, RNPO is now actively supporting the next wave of global investment for the Alliance through such projects as the new plants in India and Morocco.”
