Streamlining Automotive Product Data with Modera: Overcoming Industry Challenges

In the fast-paced automotive industry, managing product data — especially vehicle pricing and specifications — can be incredibly complex. Car manufacturers and dealerships need to constantly update and share data across various platforms to ensure that vehicle configurators, websites, and sales channels reflect accurate information. That’s why Modera has developed an advanced Vehicle Product Management Tool to help businesses overcome these challenges, ensuring smooth operations and accurate data distribution across markets.

The challenges of managing automotive product data

Automotive product data is complex by nature, consisting of various aspects such as vehicle specifications, pricing, fixture details, and country-specific modifications. Handling this data is further complicated by its sheer volume and the number of sources it originates from. Manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers all have their own data streams, and managing this information requires extreme precision and efficiency.

One of the main issues businesses face is countless data sources. When data comes from multiple places, maintaining consistency across systems becomes challenging. This is where Modera steps in, providing a centralized platform to manage and consolidate all of this critical information.

The importance of accuracy 

For automotive businesses, precision in product data management is vital for success. Pricing errors or incorrect specifications can not only impact customer satisfaction but also lead to regulatory issues in different countries. The complexity of vehicle product data requires robust solutions capable of managing and distributing this data seamlessly across all relevant channels. Modera’s solution addresses this by offering:

  • Centralized data management: By combining vehicle pricing and specifications in a single tool, businesses can avoid discrepancies that arise from manual data entry and fragmented data sources.
  • Country-specific pricing: One of the biggest challenges in automotive data management is creating and maintaining country-specific pricing structures. With the help of our tool, this process is automated and streamlined, allowing businesses to maintain compliance with local pricing regulations effortlessly.
  • Multilingual translations: Automotive brands are global, which means their data need to match that. Our system enables seamless translation of vehicle specifications and pricing into multiple languages, ensuring accurate information is available in all target markets.

Streamlining data flow

Nowadays, one of the most imperative needs for any automotive business is seamless integration across various platforms. With multiple sales channels, websites, and OEM configurators, the demand for real-time data updates is higher than ever. Modera ensures that the flow of vehicle data — whether it’s specifications, pricing, or availability — remains consistent and up-to-date across all platforms in your ecosystem.

Modera’s new solution acts as a single source of truth, ensuring all platforms pull the correct data. The moment any vehicle data is updated, it is reflected across your entire network, be it internal sales tools, public-facing websites, or third-party configurators. By simplifying the complexity of data sharing, Modera helps you eliminate delays and inaccuracies.
