Conclusion
The OneDealer platform has been broadly implemented across the entire Kosmocar network, and has enjoyed 100% user acceptance after just half a day of training. The implementation took place in phases, with VW being the first brand to trial the Digital Sales Workplace. Following this pilot, the next steps were as follows:
- Audi and Skoda brands were brought on board and the user base widely expanded
- Feedback was obtained from users to further align functionality with business requirements Website and integrate with Office 365
