Cummins maintains extensive manufacturing facilities, technical centers, and distribution operations across six continents, serving customers through direct sales, distributors, and dealers.
Competitive Landscape
Cummins competes in the global power and propulsion systems market against diversified industrial companies and specialized engine manufacturers. In on-highway engines, the company faces competition from Daimler Truck, PACCAR, Volvo Group, and Navistar. Caterpillar is a major competitor in off-highway engines, power generation, and industrial applications. Deere & Company competes in certain industrial and agricultural engine markets.
In the electrification space, Cummins competes against traditional automotive suppliers transitioning to electric powertrains, as well as specialized electric vehicle component manufacturers. The power generation market is highly competitive with players including Caterpillar, Generac, Kohler, and numerous regional manufacturers. Cummins differentiates itself through its comprehensive product portfolio spanning traditional and alternative powertrains, extensive global service network, strong brand reputation for reliability and durability, and significant investments in next-generation technologies. The company's scale and established customer relationships in commercial vehicle and industrial markets provide advantages as these sectors navigate the energy transition.
Strategic Outlook and Innovation
Cummins is executing a destination zero strategy focused on developing zero-emissions and low-carbon solutions while maintaining its core diesel and natural gas engine business during the transition period. The company is investing billions in electrification and hydrogen technologies, developing battery electric powertrains for commercial vehicles, hydrogen fuel cells for heavy-duty applications, and electrolyzers for green hydrogen production. These investments position Cummins to serve customers regardless of their power solution preferences.
The company is expanding its components and aftermarket businesses, which provide more stable revenue streams and higher margins than traditional engine manufacturing. Geographic expansion in emerging markets and strategic partnerships with vehicle manufacturers and technology companies are key growth initiatives. Cummins is also focused on operational excellence and digital transformation to improve manufacturing efficiency and enhance customer service capabilities. As global emissions regulations tighten and industries seek sustainable power solutions, Cummins aims to leverage its engineering expertise, customer relationships, and diversified technology portfolio to maintain leadership in the evolving power solutions market.
