| Research Abstract |
Based on the current state of international division of production process and products with a Japanese head quarter of a Japanese die company going into East Asia, this research describes the decision factors of the international division of labor and the expected roles for the Japanese companies.
While Japanese die industry had long focused on export, currently the production and sales base has been shifting to locate in East Asian countries and exporting to Japan as a result.
This is nothing but the outcome of the development of international division of production processes and products within the industry. There are various divisions in a series of production processes and products between the head quarter in Japan and the local factories in East Asia.
For production process, the local factories in East Asia produce CAD as well as NC data that will be transmitted to Japan, whereas when it comes to division of production, the head quarter in Japan remains as an exporter of the die even though the products indicate "Made-In-Market".
However, there has been a room expanding to locally develop, design and produce the products in East Asia. As a consequence, the die industry in Japan should produce the products that are the technically difficult that require some sensitive works, the limited date of delivery, and the integration in design and development with the user industry in Japan.
