Faced with the need for a scal­able and glob­al Ser­vice Parts plat­form, as well as a lack of exist­ing solu­tions that suit­ed their needs, Ford Motor Co. opt­ed to work with SAP to cre­ate the solu­tion they need­ed. Ford, CAT and SAP joined forces to design and build SAP’s Ser­vice Parts Man­age­ment mod­ule over the course of sev­er­al years, with many lessons learned along the way.

Start­ing with a small roll­out in a low vol­ume com­mod­i­ty and even­tu­al­ly grow­ing into lever­ag­ing the entire Ser­vice Parts Plan­ning suite to plan all parts in North Amer­i­ca, Ford encoun­tered and over­came obsta­cles in mov­ing data, gov­ern­ing data and bal­anc­ing risk / com­plex­i­ty with the poten­tial for broad insight. Join this com­pli­men­ta­ry web­cast to learn:
