Do You Know How Datagrid Built A DMS For Yanmar To Increase Sales?

Our Client

Yanmar is a global organization having its sales distribution office all across the globe for engines for various equipments
They have separate sales offices for every continent and a huge sales channel partner network.

The UK operational team was having the challenge to manage the hierarchy of business units, distributors, and dealers
There are different distributors for different products. The same dealer can belong to more than 1 distributor. It was not possible to manage this relationship between distributor, dealer & business unit in an excel sheet
Due to this, the digital information flow was not up to the mark and creating losses for the company with lower sales
It was always difficult to manage this data and hierarchy whenever a new distributor or dealer was appointed or terminated
It was difficult to track the update of change in the contact information of a dealer or distributor

Datagrid in association with I-tee Media solutions (The Netherlands) prepared a custom cloud-based application in Codeigniter based on the LAMP platform
An access control system was developed to give access to various entities in the system like Headquarter, Business Units, Distributor & Dealers
All these entities can log in and perform the actions like adding/deleting the entities in the lower hierarchy
The system is equipped with providing access up to the data level not just at the entity level
Yanmar headquarters get an email every day of all dealers & distributors who have been added to the system or whose information has been updated for reconciliation

With this platform, Yanmar is now able to manage their channel partners information in a very efficient way
A system is designed to send emails in one click to a defined set of users, which has made it easy to promote the offers and new arrivals
This is made with a mobile-friendly frontend so that any authorized person can use this from a mobile phone as well
All the scattered channel partner’s data is now set in a structured way on this platform which is helping them in doing better sales
