CAMI Automotive is an independently incorporated joint venture of automobile manufacturing in Ingersoll, Ontario, Canada and formed the third step of GM's three-pronged initiative of the mid-1980s to capture and practice the Japanese mystique of automotive management. The other two are NUMMI in California and Saturn Corporation in Tennessee.
Ownership of CAMI is split 50-50 between Suzuki and General Motors of Canada Ltd.. The plant currently produces vehicles based on GM's Theta platform for crossover SUVs.
CAMI Automotive currently employs 2,772 employees. There are 570 acres of property as well as 1.7 million sq.ft. of floor space. CAMI uses the CAMI Production System (CPS), a set of operating philosophies that guide team members in manufacturing vehicles. The basis of the system is working in teams performing standardized work.
In the 2005 Harbour Report, CAMI was ranked No. 3 in truck assembly in the Small SUV category of the 45 auto assembly plants in North America.
