Automotive Spare Parts

Precision Parts, Relentless Pressure

Automotive spare parts manufacturers and distributors deal with vast assortments of slow-moving SKUs, ever-changing supersessions, and tangled global supply chains. Balancing local sourcing for speed against global for cost, while still guaranteeing uptime for customers, is a constant high-wire act.

The challenges facing the Industry

Enormous Product Ranges & Supersessions

Thousands of parts, many with complex supersession chains as older SKUs get replaced by new numbers, make it a nightmare to maintain accuracy and avoid obsolete stock.

Long & Multi-Stage Lead Times

Whether it’s quick local replenishment or containers from afar, lead times stretch out. Deciding where to hold risk—close by for service, or offshore for cost—needs constant tuning.

Fragmented Supply & Reliability

Managing multiple suppliers, each with varying reliability, means one missing part can halt critical repairs.

Pressure for Accurate ETAs

Customers expect precise ETAs, but volatile transit times and supplier unpredictability make these promises tough to keep.

Balancing Inventory & Service

You can’t afford excess working capital on shelves, but understock leads to angry customers and lost business—especially across multiple warehouses or cross-docks.
