Process Transparency and Effectiveness

Process Efficiency is Key

Replacing Excel is a boost in efficiency. Our goal is to minimize manual data input wherever possible. Say good-bye to repeatedly inputting the same data and the times of copy and paste.  

  • If manual input is unavoidable it is done
    → just once, deviating from the conventional approach of managing numerous Excel files for the same topic
    → with super user-friendly interfaces
  • Pre-filled data with input from numerous sources like S&P Global Mobility, your PLM, ERP etc. or other Digital Automotive modules

Replacing Excel does not only save time by inputting data. It also saves time in processing it and generating automized output. Our time-saving features:

  • Easy, fast and enduring accessibility of needed information and documents
  • 100% automated reporting in real-time
  • Price tracking lists receive automatic updates from changes or claims and are seamlessly integrated in sales planning...

Revolutionizing the Core of Sales: Price Management

 

A revolution in efficiency, transparency and compliance: Shifting from Excel to Database for Price Management.

Prices - The primary outcome of the Acquisition, Change, and Claim Management processes are automatically merged into a unified part price list: 

  • Avoiding mistakes and a boost in efficiency.
  • Gaining price control over the entire lifecycle.
  • Part prices ready to be uploaded into your ERP system for invoicing.
  • Seamlessly integrated into your sales planning – real-time updates included.
  • Prices can be broken down in all components like raw material surcharges. logistics, buy-parts etc.
  • And if you want to track the costs on part number level over lifetime, also this is possible in Digital Automotive.
