 Lincorp Automotive have been making serious attempts to collect data corporate wide an attempt to keep a tab on orders, and gain a sense of what the "daily position" of the variable operations of the enterprise.
This effort was a collection of Excel Based spreadsheets that were reliant upon each departmental manager submitting data to a central person who then had to work through any issues and collaborate and deploy the results.
We had presented "Behind the Wheel" - BTWonline to them a month or so earlier, illustrating that it was possible to successfully marry in the information collected in the in house system in conjunction with the individual efforts by each manager in updating the system with estimate Grosses and Delivery Dates against stock numbers and Deals.
We were most pleased to hear back from the organisation a little later after the concerted efforts of running the Spreadsheet version of Daily Orders was still problematic.
By adopting BTWonline, Lincorp Automotive have been able to achieve the following.
- The system automatically incorporates and updates in house data to deliver stock and sales information
- Every Manager can log in to BTW without worrying about versions or updates.
- The results are entered as they are realised, hence the system is now "up to the minute"!
- Lincorp are also collaborating Finance, Insurance, Aftermarket and Warranty detail to provide a complete picture at the front end.
- The easy to use interface assists Lincorp in Managing their stock and sales by facilitating an intuitive and easy to use interface to
drill through the data and deliver meaningful information at the click of a few buttons.
- Not a single e-mail is required to keep all management informed of what is happening. Each user has an appropriate log in that presents the information in a way that suits them. There is no latency in the system as every member contributes directly into the BTW interface as it is realised.
Most importantly, Lincorp have been impressed with the service we have provided in getting the information reporting as it should, by turning up on site multiple times, and dealing with queries as they have been raised.
We look forward to the ongoing support of Lincorp in this terrific reporting product that is already delivering new and interesting information's to the management team.
