Results and Outcomes of the Survey – Company Information The majority of participants are in one way or the other linked to purchasing functions or supply chain management. Only 30 percent of the survey participants are related to operations and / or sales. Over 90 percent of the survey participants were decision makers in their company (acting at least on a manager level) with 14 percent holding the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO). This allows the conclusion that the results of the survey can be based on profound insights. Procurement 38% Industry Sector and Company Size Most respondents operate in the production industry. In regard to company size the medium sized companies with an average employee base of 5,000 employees represent the majority of participants (Figure 41). Amongst the various industries, the automotive industry is holding on to its dominant interest in the Chinese market as is reflected in a fairly high number of respondents (Figure 39). Further industrial machinery, manufacturing and construction hardware are represented.
