Budgeting, forecasting and reporting for the automotive Sector

Dealerships need to provide regular forecasts of sales and reports to managers and manufacturers. There is also the need to manage other sources of income such as finance and servicing. Sales can be very seasonal with new models, number plate changes, and other factors affecting cash flow. Modelling the integrated financial plan is vital to ensure sustainability.

Dealerships often work with a vast array of software systems prescribed by each manufacturer. Bringing all the data together in one single platform for Sales planning and  integrated financial planning is vital. Often the data is bought together in Excel.

However, Excel solutions are:

  • Slow to Update
  • Error Prone
  • Difficult to change e.g. add new dealerships / models
  • Not multi user
  • Does not automatically consolidated dealerships / manufacturer data
  • Unable to run scenarios
