Telematics can provide tremendous value to OEMs and Tier-1 vendors in improving the quality of their products and also delivering a superior customer experience.
Jotting down my thoughts on the business value of implementing telematics.
1. Predictive Maintenance - Every organization wants to reduce the maintenance costs associated with sudden unexpected failure of components in a vehicle. The downtime that occurs due to a failure can result in huge losses for all parties involved. Thus, it is imperative to make the paradigm shift from reactive maintenance to preventive/predictive maintenance.
Telematics would provide organizations with the ability to discover issues before they cause downtime and take the appropriate proactive steps to reduce costs. Various machine learning techniques are used to identify patterns.
2. Improve Product Quality - The insights gathered from telematics can be used as a feedback loop for product development teams. It would also help the management prioritize R&D investments in the appropriate areas.
3. Optimize Warranty Costs - Telematics data can provide visibility of anticipated component/part recalls and accordingly forecast warranty reserve. Using the power of analytics on telematics data, we can also identify suspicious warranty claims and effectively structure future warranty contracts.
