Orbitsys

Orbitsys DMS leverages its cloud-based platform, allowing centralisation of data and remote access to tackle connectivity and data hurdles in the automotive industry.

As the world relies more on technology and data to tackle different situations or to streamline processes, loopholes exist inevitably. Orbitsys leverages its cloud-based platform, allowing centralisation of data along with remote access for the automotive industry to tackle dealerships and hurdles.

“We tackle connectivity and data hurdles in the automotive industry by offering a cloud-based platform. This allows dealerships and OEMs to centralise data, which eliminates scattered systems, creating a single source of trusted data for customer and vehicle information. Moreover, accessing data remotely enables secure, role-based and real-time data visibility across multiple locations, improving decision-making,” informed Harvinder Pal Singh, Chief Business Officer, Orbitsys DMS.

The software services company also tackles challenges pertaining to supply chain management by leveraging cloud-based tools that monitor performance in real-time. “We optimise supply chain management by providing tools for efficient inventory management, order tracking and supplier collaboration. The platform enables companies to monitor supply chain performance in real-time, identify bottlenecks and make data-driven decisions to improve efficiency and reduce costs,” said Singh.

However, in this rapidly changing landscape of digitisation, data security has assumed an important position. Commenting on ensuring data security and privacy in its application, Singh said, “We prioritise data security and privacy in our solutions for the automotive sector by implementing robust security measures such as encryption, access controls and regular security audits by industry-leading security partners. The platform ensures that customer data is protected against unauthorised access and adheres to industry standards and regulations for data privacy.”

Furthermore, as Orbitsys is an ISO certified company, it conducts regular audits and updates the solutions to comply with statutory requirements, ensuring that customers can confidently use their services while meeting regulatory obligations.

When asked how Orbitsys’ technology enhances efficiency and productivity in automotive production and distribution processes, Singh explained, “We improve order accuracy by leveraging real-time customer orders and vehicle inventory data of dealerships that can be shared with manufacturers, enabling them to adjust production plans and reduce the risk of overstocking or understocking at dealerships. Customers can be provided estimated arrival times and updates on vehicle delivery periods. Moreover, efficient service at dealerships, facilitated by our system, can lead to quicker turnaround times for repairs and maintenance, potentially reducing warranty claims and improving customer satisfaction.”

Digital solutions

Some of the specific solutions and services offered by Orbitsys include customer relationship management systems. These comprehensive, pre-configured auto-centric CRM platforms help automotive dealerships manage all interactions and communications with customers, including lead tracking, opportunity management and service requests.

It offers data repository services where a centralised repository keeps all customer and vehicle data, streamlining operations and improving data visibility. The Orbitsys CRM-DMS supports the entire sales process, from lead generation to deal closing, while the after-sales service module helps manage service appointments, track repair work and bill customers. The system can also be integrated with workshop management systems to streamline service operations.

Its inventory management system helps manage inventory levels for parts and vehicles, ensuring that dealerships have the right stock on hand to meet customer demand. It also offers the full range of pre-configured customer feedback programmes that are used by businesses to gauge customer satisfaction.

Besides these offerings, Orbitsys offers a range of mobile apps for OEMs, dealerships and vehicle owners, providing on-the-go access to key information and functionality.

Its vehicle and parts distribution platform for OEMs and dealers offers a comprehensive integration to OEM vehicle warehouse operations and enables on-line vehicle ordering as well as fund-management.

Moreover, the core platform has the capability to connect to any OEM or external system for secure and automated data flows.

The service provider leverages its technological expertise to innovate in the automotive sector by focusing on streamlined dealer business management and cloud-based accessibility. The system offers an all-in-one solution for dealerships, managing various aspects like distribution, sales, service and customer relationship management.

This eliminates the need for multiple disconnected systems and enforces pre-defined processes to ensure data integrity and minimise the possibility of frauds.

“Our platform is designed on pre-defined processes that are enforced with minimal manual intervention so that all reports and insights use trusted data. This attention to process also minimises the possibility of fraud. Moreover, our web-hosted software allows dealerships with multiple locations and brands to access and manage data and operations centrally. This provides real-time data visibility, improving decision making and streamlining processes across the network,” informed Singh.

Answering how Orbitsys contributes to electric vehicle (EV) technology advancements, he said, “We offer features that support EV manufacturers in managing customer relationships, streamlining operations and analysing data. This helps EV manufacturers improve efficiency, reduce costs and accelerate the development and adoption of EV technology.”

Market presence

The service provider has been present in the automotive segment since 1995 and has worked with brands such as Daewoo, Skoda, Isuzu and Benelli in ICE and Amo Mobility and Omega Seiki and Lohia Auto in EV segment. Over 1,700 automotive dealers and workshops have chosen to work with their system so far. “We work closely with the Federation of Dealer Associations in India to engage with dealerships across the country. Orbitsys has been the DMS partner for India’s most prestigious Autocar Awards – created and hosted by India’s most trusted automobile publication, for over six years now,” informed Singh.

He added, “Orbitsys CRM-DMS stays ahead in the rapidly evolving automotive market by continuously innovating its service offerings to meet the changing needs of customers and the industry. We invest in research and development to develop cutting-edge solutions with mobile capabilities that help automotive businesses stay competitive. We actively collaborate with industry partners and engage with customers to understand their challenges and develop tailored solutions that address their specific needs.”

Commenting on long-term goals and vision in relation to the automotive sector, Singh said, “We intend to create a globally scaleable platform that will work across multiple markets. On the technology side, we are actively working on plans for block-chain integration. AI integration will be coming to specific modules on a small scale first and then become an integral part of the system. We will integrate closely with connected vehicle systems to bring the best vehicle ownership experience to customers.
