With the rapid development of the domestic automotive market in recent years, the proportion and importance of the automotive industry in China's population have been continuously increasing, and consulting and IT technologies related to the automotive industry have gradually become a very popular field. Among them, business consulting related to supply chain management, IT software, and their implementation and application are undoubtedly one of the most attention-grabbing features. According to foreign statistics, each automotive company averages an investment of 2% of its annual sales revenue in IT technology. Compared to the level of domestic automotive industry sales revenue exceeding 1 trillion yuan in 2004, the IT sector in the domestic automotive industry will be a market with huge development potential, and related management consulting will also have considerable room for growth.
