Abstract
This paper seeks to evaluate the development of supply chain (SC) efficiency and the resulting impacts on company value. In a secondary data analysis of the European automotive industry, the trends of cost efficiency and working capital performance in the years 2002–2010 and the resulting value impacts are assessed. It is detected that many companies failed to manage cost and working capital in a balanced and value-adding way, which resulted in considerable value losses. The economic crisis is identified as an amplifier, but not the major cause of these negative trends. Originality and value of the paper arise from the scarcity of financial analyses that focus on the car sector or that measure and compare several factors of SC efficiency or value creation.

Abstract
Fragen der sozialen Nachhaltigkeit verändern die Informationsbedarfe im Supply Chain Controlling. Unternehmen implementieren eine Kommunikations-, Compliance oder Lieferantenentwicklungsstrategie, um damit den Anforderungen interner und externer Stakeholder gerecht zu werden. Entsprechend ist das Controlling in Strategieumsetzung und Informationsflüssen auszugestalten.
Supply chain controlling system can be described by: strategy implementation, target setting and performance measurement, rewards and incentives, information flows; additionally a stakeholder perspective is introduced. Three strategies for managing social issues in supply chains are introduced: communication, compliance and supplier development. These two approaches are combined to illustrate the measure taken in the supply chain from a controlling perspective.
