Automotive Industry: Driving Innovation Forward

Remain competitive, innovate faster and meet demands of the automotive industry

Effectively managing automotive business-specific processes (JIT, JIS, returnable packaging, ...) and mastering the relevant tools and standards (EDI, RF, RFID, labeling, traceability, …) are key to facilitating stakeholder interaction and increasing efficiency and competitiveness.

In a true long-term partnership model, delaware's FAST-Automotive will guide and inspire automotive players who are shaping the future of mobility.

Supply challenges

Compliance, flexibility, and innovation are key to growing market share. How can you reconcile the operational constraints of a highly standardized sector with the need to become more competitive and innovate faster?

Challenges for manufacturers

A rapidly evolving industry demands that you shorten your development cycles, simplify complex and cost-intensive systems, and make a shift to digital.

The OEM version of FAST-Automotive focuses on new entrants to the automotive market who want to benefit from decades of knowledge on automotive best practices, without bearing the cost of complicated legacy systems.
The FAST-Automotive template is based on SAP S/4 technology and covers all aspects of the modern automotive process, combining efficiency and agility while also incorporating many new (but proven) technologies. All this means the end user will have a more dynamic and satisfying experience with your end product.
The SAP S/4HANA platform can be fully integrated with a digital frontend (for vehicle sales) as well as with an engineering back-end.

Challenges for distributors

The car sales business is also rapidly evolving, mixing traditional approaches with clever innovation.

The FAST-Automotive template allows you to activate the after-sales service component, meeting the challenges facing new entrants to the automotive market.
This allows you to provide real-time interactive vehicle configuration on a digital portal, fully integrated with the ERP and incorporating the most up-to-date technical and pricing modifications, by geographical region or by type of distribution network (direct or indirect).
The after-sales service component allows comprehensive follow-up of vehicles, from assembly to ongoing maintenance (including service intervals, recalls, warranty claims, etc.). It also incorporates customer feedback through different channels such as social media and CRM.
