| The client |
| One of the largest automobile manufacturers in the world |

| The business challenge |
The client has a special category of customers called fleet buyers. Fleet buyers are customers who buy more than 5 vehicles at a time. They form a sizeable part of the client’s target audience. Since, the purchasing process of these customers vary significantly from the normal car buyer, the information they require to make purchase decisions is also different. These customers purchase vehicles in larger numbers across geographies, so they are eligible for discounts and services which are not available to a regular car buyer.
The client used six static Websites to provide fleet owners in different geographies with information regarding vehicles, incentives, rebates, quotes and dealer information. These disparate sites resulted in longer customer assimilation time and poor customer experience. There was also heavy cost involved in maintaining these Websites. |

| The solution |
Wipro designed and developed a dynamic enterprise portal with enriched functionality. This single portal which was based on struts framework and J2EE & interwoven portal, replaced six static Websites.
The new site contains comprehensive information about local services, finance programs, vehicle information, market information etc. It also includes functionality which allows customers to choose dealers based on vehicle make/model, zip code and city; obtain information in languages of their choice; submit FAQs easily for different geographic regions; and review FAQ status online. |

| Business benefits |
 |
Improved business processes
 |
The customers do not need separate Request for Quotation (RFQ) for different regions. This avoids the cumbersome process of answering all the queries multiple times |
 |
The response to RFQs can be consolidated/approved and sent to the client online |
|
 |
Reduction in sales cycle time
 |
The online configuration tool provided rebate information and information on various dealers. This reduced sales cycle time since it allowed customers to get in touch with suitable dealers directly |
|
 |
Cost benefits
 |
75 % reduction in maintenance costs since there was only one site to manage instead of six static sites |
 |
Reusable components ensure that new sites are developed, quickly and cost effectively |
|
 |
Improved customer data
 |
The client can access customer, vehicle and dealer data from a centralized database. This information can be used to create more effective promotions |
