Problem Statement: Fragmented Automotive Data Hindering Performance

A leading provider of credit, compliance, and lead management solutions in the automotive retail industry struggled with significant inefficiencies caused by a fragmented data landscape. Business-critical data was scattered across siloed systems with no centralized data warehouse, making unified reporting nearly impossible.
Leadership and operational teams lacked a single source of truth, making KPI tracking for compliance and credit risk extremely difficult. Manual data extraction from multiple systems introduced delays, inconsistencies, and unreliable insights.
