Abstract
Multinational Companies (mnes) have a long presence in the automobile industry in Mexico, since 1925. The North America free trade agreement (nafta) has promoted this foreign-owned industry to develop the locally owned auto supplier industry. In this study, we focus on two analyses: in the fi rst one, the “Double Diamond” model is used to examine the sources of competitiveness of the auto industry, the auto suppliers, and the possible spillover effects on fi rst and second tier suppliers. In the second one, we focus on a local case by analyzing the cluster located in Puebla to see the relations between the Original Equipment Manufacturer Volkswagen (oem vw) and its suppliers. Our fi ndings indicate that the foreign-owned auto industry in Mexico has been successful in terms of gaining world’s export market share within the period 1993-2003 and that mnes have promoted the competitiveness of some existing locally owned suppliers through collaborative agreements and joint ventures. The local case of the Puebla cluster reveals that some local, in its majority foreign-owned, auto suppliers have been certifi ed and integrated as tier 1 suppliers of the oem vw, but there is not enough evidence that tier 2 and 3 locally owned suppliers have been fully integrated into the supply chain.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
