Tackling Changing Customer Demand with Digital Transformation

BCG X and AWS have teamed up with BMW to implement and scale a critical automotive AI transformation built with customer centricity at its core.

BCG helped a global OEM build and deploy a dynamic spare-parts pricing platform, enabling the client to react faster to market changes. The platform allows the client to set optimal prices at the individual SKU level by leveraging internal and external data and state-of-the-art analytics. By implementing this approach, the client’s EBIT on spare parts increased by 3%.

EBIT increase

The resource-intensive option management system at a multinational parts manufacturer was too complex, leading to eroding margins. BCG created a solution that used multidimensional data to improve forecast data by 25% and extended forecasting timeframes to 24 months.

25%

improvement in forecast data

BCG helped a global car manufacturer develop a fully integrated, customer-centric, build-to-stock sales platform. The solution blended analytics and business insights to recommend vehicle configurations that would provide dealers and national sales companies faster turnover rates and higher profit margins.
