Automotive SAP Booking Management Case Studies

Client: A 5,000-employee automotive manufacturer with a fragmented dealer network across North America.

Challenge: The client's legacy booking system could not handle real-time vehicle allocation, causing inventory discrepancies of over 15%. They needed an Automotive SAP Booking Management solution to unify 200+ dealers.

Solution: Smartbrain.io deployed a team of 2 Solution Architects and 6 developers to implement SAP Dealer Business Management (DBM). We conducted a 3-week discovery phase, followed by 4 agile sprints covering design, build, and testing. The team migrated 500,000 vehicle records using SAP Migration Cockpit and integrated the system with the existing SAP S/4HANA ERP.

Results: The new system went live in 14 weeks. Inventory accuracy improved to 99.8%, and order-to-delivery time was reduced by 20%. The client achieved a 2.8x ROI within the first year.
