Project Description

  • An automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) sought to improve interaction with dealers. These interactions were cumbersome and inefficient as dealers had to dial into a mainframe network and access each system separately. Additionally, both dealer network and OEM struggled with visibility to key warranty and service parts data.
  • DCG was engaged to improve the client’s interaction with dealers specifically related to service parts and warranty claim processing.

Project Approach

  • Performed cost/benefit analysis, performed stakeholder analysis, and defined business requirements
  • Developed and migrated client to a real-time, internet-based, client-server configuration
  • Implemented a solution that allows dealers seamless access to data on multiple legacy mainframe systems while adhering to client's System Development Lifecycle standards
  • Performed change management and training both at OEM and within the dealer network

Project Benefits

  • Reduced overall technology operating cost through a centralized and streamlined environment
  • Provided dealers with better and timelier access to warranty and service parts data

Project Outcome

  • DCG enabled the client to significantly improve productivity and service to dealers.
  • The client improved the speed and effectiveness of factory to dealer communications.
