Challenges Faced by Organisation
Facing challenges such as the lack of real-time service updates, fragmented inventory management, and limited visibility into product and parts data, the automaker sought a unified solution to drive efficiency and scalability.
According to Airtel Business, the organisation faced several challenges due to the lack of real-time updates on service concerns and inventory management being handled by dealers. Analysing trends in product variants like model and colour became difficult, impacting their ability to understand market demands effectively.
Additionally, maintaining records of spare parts, distinguishing between genuine and local, posed significant challenges. Also, without access to product lifecycle data, the company faced hurdles in planning for future models and managing existing ones efficiently, Airtel explained.

The transformation has led to a 30 percent increase in dealer productivity, enabled smarter decision-making through real-time insights, and standardised customer service across locations. Improved inventory tracking and enhanced lifecycle visibility have further optimised operations.
