Agility and efficiency are the foremost principles
within the BMW Groups worldwide production network
currently comprising 22 production plants in 14 coun-
tries. This network is made up of breathing structures
based on a wide range of flexible working time con-
cepts, working time accounts, and the ability, depend-
ing on demand, to build certain models at other plants
if required. This allows the BMW Group to respond
quickly and flexibly to the situation in each market.
Consistent application of uniform standards in quality,
safety and job processes within the plant network guar-
antees premium products made by the BMW Group
the world over.
In 2001 the BMW Group further expanded its pro-
duction network, opening the new engine plant in
Hams Hall, Great Britain, and the Oxford plant where
production of the MINI started in April 2001. In the years
to come the BMW Group will support its product and
market offensive through a broad range of investments,
thus establishing the foundation for ongoing growth.
The largest single investment of euro 1.3 billion is
for the new plant in the Leipzig/Halle region, destined
to build the BMW 3 Series from 2005. The New Home
of Rolls-Royce, in turn, is being established in Good-
wood, in the south of England. At the same time the
BMW Group is investing consistently in its production
network. In all, therefore, a major share of the total capi-
tal expenditure of more than euro 16 billion planned for
the years to come will go into the enlargement and ex-
pansion of the BMW Groups plant structure.
