Focus On

Automotive

Complete Supply Chain management, from Inbound to Aftermarket services

FOCUS ON: Automotive,

Following a long experience in the automotive market, Click Reply has acquired a key position worldwide regarding logistic solutions for the management of supply processes, production lines and distribution of spare parts for the truck, car and motorcycle sector.​

The company has applied the in-depth knowledge acquired, at all levels of operation, to the numerous projects undertaken in collaboration with some of the most important and highly-rated logistics companies in the automotive sector and Italy’s leading car manufacturer.

The offer for the automotive sector consists of ​two vertical solutions, aimed respectively at the following business categories:

  • Inbound: production line supply
  • Aftermarket: complete supply chain management for the distribution of spare parts

Competitiveness in an increasingly cut-throat market, product/component quality and reduced product-to-market time are today’s true competitive factors. Customer loyalty can be maintained only with effective post-sales management and with a vast range of spare parts available for rapid supply.

Both processes require an effective management that focuses on reducing delays, limiting costs and improving the precision of order fulfilment, by synchronising the provisioning stages for the production cycle, while also reducing stock volumes.

​People, processes and technology are the core elements at the heart of the Click solution for the automotive sector.​
