Client background

Founded in 1975, Tractmotor Parts (M) SDN BHD is a Malaysia-based dynamic company that geared for today’s challenges to equipment and spares parts for agriculture, supply machinery, light construction, and manufacturing sectors. It has grown to be one of the leaders in the industry in Malaysia, supported by overseas manufacturers and suppliers.

What were the challenges of the client?

Tractmotor used to manage its large volume of product data, related to automobile spare parts, in a scattered way that causes a lot of challenges for their business. They wanted to address various issues related to product information management and media asset management for the automobile parts they are selling. The major challenges of the client involved

The product information and media files were scattered as the client used to manage all the data in excel sheet, mobile phones, and local computers.

The account management system and inventory management system of the client were not synched which resulted in communication gaps with customers and loss in sales revenue.

The manual product catalog update process was time-consuming and inaccurate for the sales team. It was impacting the productivity of the sales executives as they were not able to access the updated product information on the go.

Lack of collaboration with suppliers

The sales team used to approach the customers with inaccurate product information that resulted in business loss.

They were not able to get insights on customers’ buying pattern that impacts the client’s strategic business decisions

The client had to manage different price structures for different customers.

In absence of a centralized data repository, the knowledge transfer to all stakeholders in the organization became difficult
