Enhancing customer experience by building a centralized CRM solution for the world leader in automobile manufacturing
 

The idea
Developing a scalable centralized solution for organization's growing needs.
 
The client
The client is world’s leading automobile manufacturer based in Detroit with a strong global presence. Besides manufacturing, the customer has various other divisions and business interests related to the automobile industry e.g. auto financing, satellite tracking and remote assistance for safety and security of vehicles.
 
The business challenge

The client’s existing system constituted 22 disparate CRM solutions developed by individual business units or geographical regions. The client wanted to deploy a global CRM solution that supports 1:1 Marketing, Sales and Service across the client’s consumer interaction channels.

The key objective of the implementation was to support the client’s primary business need of a tremendous growth in market demand. Also, the CRM Implementation had to support client’s eCRM initiatives. This necessitated the integration of the various processes and systems, to achieve a scalable CRM solution. The client aimed at enhancing the customer experience by having a 360 degree view of the customer.

Thus the client’s CRM focus was primarily in the following areas:
Managing leads which arise from potential individual customers
A system to effectively handle commercial accounts and manage bulk orders
Consolidating the rapidly growing dealer network
Measuring effectiveness of marketing campaigns
Real-time decision making in sales
A single system to respond to all customer queries
 
The solution

Wipro was the prime vendor for the global CRM development. The entire program was executed primarily through a global development centre, funded by regions depending on their participation and scope of development. The core solution ( global build ) covered all the global processes and the specific regional requirements were added on to the regional solution while deploying in the specific region. This model ensured that the core solution remained global in nature while accommodating the local business and legal requirements.

Wipro leveraged the client’s standard Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) solutions, using out-of-the-box functionality wherever possible. Our ShoreGain methodology leveraging the onsite-offshore delivery model ensured consistent quality and schedule adherence at minimum possible cost to our client.

Our CRM program was primarily organized around delivering the multi lingual, multi region global CRM implementation to our client. The project was executed within the agreed schedule despite the aggressive timelines and the dynamics of a multi-vendor setup in the system.

Wipro offered the following CRM solutions, which were aligned with our client’s business objectives.
1. Lead management system: We deployed a Siebel eDealer application which eased our client’s efforts to register, qualify, distribute, and track individual potential customer leads to closure. We devised the system to gather information from diverse sources and translate it into potential leads.
2.

Fleet management system: Corporate and fleet customers account for a huge chunk of our client’s business. This system greatly simplified our client’s mammoth fleet operations, employed to service the corporate and fleet accounts.

3.

Call centre application: The global CRM solutions call center functionality rationalizes and unifies the customer care requirements across various functional units such as customer assistance, dealer assistance, technical assistance, roadside assistance etc .

4.

Marketing automation: We helped our client make informed business decisions by providing a multi-dimensional view of all marketing initiatives. The diminishing gap between forecasted sales and actual sales increased the credibility of the sales force.

5. Relationship Management: Integrating the entire dealer network with the main CRM framework helps our client handle business critical relationships effectively.

Post implementation, the entire system was upgraded to a higher version of Siebel to leverage the new functionalities available in that version. We ensured minimal operational interference to all on-going processes during the entire migration process.

Wipro supports the implemented CRM system for the entire organization. The maintenance & support scope delivered by our teams located globally using global delivery model, provide both critical application support and regular enhancement of the core solution, making the system more feature rich from business & technical perspectives. Our support services capture valuable customer experience, which offers powerful insights to key-drivers of a business’ success.
