How the work runs
The pressure that made this worth automating, the steps the system runs, and what came out the other side.
Pressure & Trigger Points
- Procurement decisions were made strictly on initial purchase price, awarding contracts to Supplier A because their unit price was 8% lower.
- In the field, Supplier A components suffered a 3x higher failure rate during warranty periods, driving massive downstream warranty claims and dealer labor costs.
- Procurement lacked the unified data to calculate true Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) including warranty, downtime, and replacement frequency.
