B2B platforms for the automotive industry

We build B2B platforms for the automotive industry – for auto parts manufacturers and distributors – as well as warranty and complaint management systems, software for dealers and service centres, OEM system integrations and sales analytics.

How we support the industry

Auto parts manufacturers and distributors, dealers and service centres run extensive partner networks, thousands of products and complex after-sales processes. B2B sales, complaint handling and data exchange with manufacturers require systems that can cope with this scale.

We build B2B platforms for the automotive industry, warranty and complaint management systems and integrations with OEM systems. Partners can order on their own, complaints follow a clear workflow, and data stays consistent across all systems.

Challenges

Challenges in the automotive industry

The auto parts and automotive services market means thousands of SKUs, complex links between products and vehicles, and a large network of distributors, workshops and dealers.

B2B orders outside the system

Orders from distributors and workshops arrive by email and phone, and sales reps retype them into the ERP.

Matching parts to vehicles

Customers need to find the right part fast, while the catalogue holds thousands of items and equivalents.

Complaints and warranties

Complaint handling involves documents, photos, decisions and communication with many parties – often in spreadsheets and email.

OEM integrations

Product data, prices and statuses have to be exchanged with manufacturers’ and partners’ systems.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a B2B platform for an auto parts manufacturer?

It is a portal where distributors and workshops place orders, see their prices and availability, download documents and submit complaints – fully integrated with the manufacturer’s ERP.

Can a complaint management platform work with our ERP?

Yes. Complaints, decisions and documents can be synchronised with the ERP and other company systems, and AI can pre-sort incoming claims.

Will the search take part equivalents into account?

Yes. We design search around part numbers, descriptions and product relationships, and semantic search helps find a part from a description.
