Tiivistelmä
The objective of this thesis is to find a solution for a group of companies to implement a cooperative sourcing network and to develop cooperation between the companies.
The research is done amongst a group of metal industry companies operating in the area of Itä-Uusimaa in southern Finland. The studied companies are associated with Metallitalli metal industry development project in Itä-Uusimaa. The Metallitalli project is conducted by PosIntra Oy.
The companies in the Metallitalli project have acknowledged a need for stronger cooperation and the development of their operations, as they all are situated in the same geographical area. This thesis will offer recommendations and solutions for the com-panies.
The research of the companies in this thesis is done in cooperation with Sito Oy (Suomalainen insinööritoimisto) and two of its consultants: leading consultant Jyrki Luukonlahti (my thesis coordinator) and consultant Sanni Rönkkö. The research was carried out in the timeframe of February-March 2014. The research consisted of qualitative interviews of the managers of the Metallitalli companies.
The results of the research indicated that the implementation of the cooperative sourcing network to the companies is not feasible at the moment. Instead other development solutions were presented to the companies.
