挑战

In the depths of the 2008-2009 economic downturn, Autometrics faced a significant business challenge. The recession had hit the automotive and travel industries hard, and Autometrics felt the pinch. The company needed to completely reinvent itself to survive. Autometrics had access to a phenomenal array of U.S. auto industry data from sophisticated third-party sources, that, when combined with auto manufacturer data and intelligently analyzed, could help predict buyer behavior and deliver real impact to manufacturers’ and dealers’ bottom lines. However, many potential clients were not only reluctant to give up their internal data but also reluctant to trust it to a cloud environment.

关于客户

Autometrics is a company that was founded in 2000 with the idea of providing hosted business intelligence in key vertical industries, including automotive and travel. The company has a scalable infrastructure built to accommodate the travel industry and deep domain expertise in analyzing auto industry data. Autometrics has access to a phenomenal array of U.S. auto industry data from sophisticated third-party sources, that, when combined with auto manufacturer data and intelligently analyzed, can help predict buyer behavior and deliver real impact to manufacturers’ and dealers’ bottom lines.

解决方案

Autometrics began to evangelize the value of sifting through huge volumes and varieties of data to get to the relevant data quickly and accurately. The company zeroed in on lower funnel prospects (LFPs), those customers primed to walk onto the lot and buy right now. Autometrics leveraged Actian Data Integrator to rapidly onboard and regularly update from a vast and ever-changing set of auto-related data sources. The company also added Actian Data Profiler to do rapid scanning of these massive datasets to identify and remove duplicates. Autometrics set out to find innovative thinkers in the auto industry who recognized the business value of a partner who not only rapidly collects both wide and deep data on LFPs but also has unique capabilities to isolate the meaningful signal data from the vast volumes of noise data surrounding it.
