Automotive retail requires full control of assortment, rotation and profitability
In the automotive sector, retailers manage large catalogs of parts, accessories and consumables with uneven rotation and tight margins. Maintaining store availability without overloading stock, coordinating deliveries with distributors and controlling performance by category are key challenges.
Main problems of the automotive industry
-
What does it mean for your company?
-
Lack of visibility in inventory by store or point of sale
Decentralized stock management makes it difficult to anticipate stockouts or excess product.
-
Replacement based on history, not on real demand
Replacements are carried out by custom or calendar, without taking into account the current rotation.
-
Lack of coordination between stores and distributors
Orders are managed without visibility on delivery times or available coverage.
How Imperia SCP solves it
-
Integration with other systems
Integration between systems centralizes sales and availability data, generating real-time alerts against risks of breakage.
-

Predictive planning anticipates demand by store, category and SKU, adjusting replenishment orders according to customer behavior.
-
Synchronization with the distributor

High coverage on low-turnover products
