Bangladesh's leading automobile company selects IFS Applications

Rangs Limited, the leading importer and distributor of automobiles in Bangladesh, signed a contract with IFS, global ERP solutions provider to implement IFS Applications across its three main operations: unit sales, spare parts and service processes.

The company, imports Mitsubishi, Mercedes Benz and JMC branded automobiles, found that to support its expansion plans into new market segments and brands, as well as to keep up with the demand, an upgrade from the existing systems was crucial.

To increase value the company also realised the importance of a best-in-class, full-scale ERP solution such as IFS Applications, which already had a strong presence in the automotive sector.

IFS will enable Rangs Limited to monitor the existing network of showrooms and the head office operations. It will enable detailed sales analysis including breakdown of the fast-moving models and colours, thereby optimising sales, inventory planning and analysis. Tracking showroom sales, managing promotional items and activities such as branded items or free goods (e.g., tool kits), are some of the key features offered for unit sales operations.

IFS Applications offers the same type of detailed planning, tracking and analysis for the spare parts operations. The solution will also enable Rangs to manage the entire service process through the comprehensive service management functionality. In addition, IFS's solution for the automotive industry includes warranty handling and tracking, service history, detailed reporting, and analysis of service operations.
