Success Story

MAHAVIR GROUP SIGNS CENTRA FOR ITS BENELLI DEALERSHIP BUSINESS Company to deploy Centra’s Dealership Management Solution and a suite of ERP, HRM and plant production solutions.

<< Vikas Jhabakh

ahavir Group was established in 1988 by Yashwant Jhabakh with a travel agency business and he later expanded it to include automobile business as well. Mr. Jhabakh built the Mahavir brand into an established and trustworthy name in the automobile industry. Today, Mahavir Group represent globally renowned brands such as Mercedes-Benz, Skoda and Isuzu across the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. As the authorized dealer for renowned 4-wheeler and 2-wheeler brands, the company has become the leader in cars, pickups, two-wheelers, superbikes and all-terrain vehicles. With a team of over 1000 people spread across 25 facilities in seven cities, the group has served over 50,000 customers till date. Mahavir Group recently partnered with Benelli, an established Italian brand, to become their exclusive manufacturers and distributors for the Indian market. Benelli, which was established in 1911, is one of the oldest Italian motorcycle manufacturers in the world and has become a legendary brand of groundbreaking models, advanced technology, victories and world-renowned pilots.

August 2018 — Issue 7

The company has set up a manufacturing facility in Hyderabad, Telangana to manufacture motorcycles ranging from 250cc to 750cc, which they will be selling through their dealer network. The company will Import Completely Knocked Down (CKD) kits, which they will assemble at their Hyderabad plant and then sell to dealers across the country. Mahavir Group currently has three models of Benelli bikes in their portfolio in India and plan to launch another nine models with varying specifications over the next 18 months. The company has close to 20 dealer partners and plans to increase this to 40 by end of 2019. “We have major plans for the Benelli brand in India. Apart from expanding our dealer network, we are looking to offer Indian customers a wide range of superbike options ranging from the entry level 250cc to off-roading bikes, highly powered 750cc bikes and even more exciting 400cc cruisers,” said Vikas Jhabakh, Director, Mahavir Group. “To support our future growth plans, it was important for us to deploy the latest technology. We were looking at plant and dealership management solutions for a seamless transition from manufacturing the bikes to delivering the same to the end customers, and next-generation ERP and HRM solutions to support two key pillars of our business - manpower and finances. We felt all four solutions were required for a seamless business process flow and to eliminate manual intervention and paperwork as much as possible, thus improving efficiency

and reducing errors,” Mr. Vikas Jhabakh added. Mahavir Group initially signed on another CRM vendor as they felt it would be easier to use the same system used by Benelli’s previous partner. However, once they rethought their entire business process, the company felt it was important to have a solution that could also talk to other platforms such as their ERP system. “Hence, we began talking to Centra and briefed them on our requirements to see if they could customize their CRM with automation features that could do a lot more for our business. We wanted to bring in more transparency and Centra worked closely with our team to customize their CRM solution to meet our requirements,” he added. Once Mahavir Group signed on Centra Hub, the company’s sales and support team studied the business processes and worked on customizing Centra CRM to include features for dealership management. The company signed on Centra Auto, Centra’s Dealership Management System (DMS), specifically for their Benelli dealership business. “Centra’s customized DMS solution will be used by our dealers across the country and will act as a channel for customer handling and communication with them. We are also building an ERP, which will take care of our production processes right from purchase of materials to bike assembling to quality checks,” Mr. Vikas Jhabakh explained. Centra Auto will help the company automate its processes thus saving time and reducing errors. Mahavir Group will also be able to save on costs, improve product quality, faster turnaround time and lessen dependence on manual intervention.

WE EXPECT CENTRA AUTO TO BE A DASHBOARD FOR ALL USERS WHETHER IT IS AT THE DEALERSHIP LEVEL OR THE MANUFACTURER LEVEL. WE WANT THE DMS TO BE AN INTERACTIVE PLATFORM THAT WILL GIVE US REAL-TIME REPORTS SO THAT WE CAN MAKE STRATEGIC DECISIONS BASED ON THE INFORMATION WE HAVE. Vikas Jhabakh, director

Benelli goes with Centra DMS

Moreover, the company will have real-time visibility on their performance at different stages thus allowing them to further improve their business processes and operations in time. “More than a CRM platform, we expect Centra Auto to be a dashboard for all users whether it is at the dealership level or the manufacturer level. We want the DMS to be an interactive platform that will give us real-time reports so that we can make strategic

decisions based on the information we have. We want it to be a management tool covering all aspects of our business and giving us market intelligence to plan the way forward. In short, we hope Centra Auto will bring transparency to the entire system and allow us to do better business with better customer services,” Mr. Vikas Jhabakh added. Centra Auto is a DMS solution that helps automobile dealer compa-

nies with leads & opportunities management, vehicle inventory, customer information, test drive and vehicle selection, finalization, invoicing and allocation, credit reports, pre-delivery inspection and delivery. “Centra’s experience in the automotive sector with delivering end-to-end solutions within the automotive dealership domains, coupled with their vertical-specific base systems of the Centra DMS and automotive systems makes the systems quick to implement. It further allows our users the visibility of key data aspects in order to make day-to-day operations and decision-making easier,” Mr Vikas Jhabakh further elaborated. Mahavir Group’s Benelli dealer network will extend across different cities in India. However, it will be managed centrally by the Centra Auto solution. Mahavir Group has major plans in the pipeline for growth and expansion of the Benelli business, which makes Centra’s DMS even more critical for the company as it will be one point of contact for all information relating to the business. “As we scale up to higher volumes, we will look at automating our manufacturing line as well. It is good that the Centra portfolio includes pre-integrated solutions within this domain, so if an upgrade on our ERP system is required, and we may need additional solutions to further automate processes to achieve greater production capability while maintaining product quality, this capability is already available within our solution stack that we are obtaining at the moment,” Mr. Vikas Jhabakh concluded.

CRM EXPRESS By Rohan Tejura, AVP, Centra Hub

The Go-Live Quick CRM for “Enquiry To Cash” Management

A

ccording to most research and studies related to sales, opportunities are converted into sales wins with a minimum of six timely follow up interactions. Research also shows most sales personnel drop their active follow up mechanisms after three reach-outs to prospects. Consequently, a significant portion of the pipeline that sales teams are chasing results in a nosale scenario. That’s not all! Adhering to deadlines and keeping a strict watch on timelines are a critical part of a successful sale. As organizations grow, the sales staff size swells, and the pipeline under management increases, it becomes increasingly difficult for sales personnel, sales management, and the organization itself, to keep track of all the opportunities, their current status, the next steps involved and the timelines available. This aspect of sales management, if overlooked, can cause disastrous consequences to the future health of businesses in aspects of lost opportunities, revenue pipelines, market share, and future growth. Clearly then, it is imperative that the sales management processes of business need to be streamlined, digitally governed and actively monitored hence the digital transformation journey of the sales process from “Enquiry to Cash”! Campaign Management The journey of enquiry to cash begins with the generation of enquiries. Businesses often engage

10

August 2018 — Issue 7

in various marketing and lead generation campaigns to generate a pipeline for revenue. Digital Transformation CRM systems provide robust campaign management and tracking to allow for campaign creation, tracking campaign budgets and actual spends, define campaign targets of lead count, opportunity count and revenue targets. Each lead or opportunity created within the CRM is then tagged to the corresponding campaign providing a detailed visibility towards campaign success. The system will provide proactive alerts on targets, achievement, deviations and also govern campaign execution tasks through proactive activity controls. Opportunity Management The core of enquiry to cash revolves around opportunity management. The moment a lead or opportunity is created within a company, it must be registered within the CRM and assigned to an “owner”. The genesis of the lead can be from multiple sources, websites, social media, call/walkins or even references. It doesn’t matter. Each of those leads or opportunities need to be logged into the CRM system. The timestamp tracker of the CRM now takes on the role of personal assistant to the sales personnel by keeping a watch on the activities engaged by the sales teams and their prospects. For instance, the system can be configured to track the time interval since the last activity conducted with the prospect, and if that were to exceed a window of say 10 days, the system can automatically remind the sales person that there has been no activity

performed with the prospect. If, however, an activity is planned for the prospect and entered within the “open activities” section of the CRM against that prospect, the system will remind you of that activity and its due date and time. As such, the system takes on the role of tracking the active status of engagement of the sales personnel with the prospect-base ensuring that no opportunity “falls off the radar” so to speak. Interestingly enough, this extremely simple step of just managing the follow ups of the prospects boosts the conversion ratios, the result of which boosts the organization top-line and profitability as a result. These follow up triggers can be specific to role, region, product, team, prospect or any other parameter of the business, thereby ensuring that the policies of the organization are embedded into the CRM, allow it to take active role of sales management and administration. As a result, the alerts mechanism of the CRM will throw out alerts via on-screen tools as well as through integrated email and SMS text message services making sure that it communicates not only to the sales personnel, but to their hierarchies as well, thereby automatically escalating overdue activities or alerts for opportunities where there aren’t any open activities planned. This feature alone makes the CRM a critical crutch that sales personnel cannot do without! Quotations & Proposals Through best practices, pre-defined quotation structures, pricebooks and terms and conditions can be built into the CRM environment. This further expedites the proposal process, ensuring timely responses to prospects. Further studies have shown that the vendor that submits their proposal first tends to win the business. These predefined tem-

plates for proposals allow users to simply build the bill of items, products or services that they wish to propose to the client, and the system can automatically generate the proposal outputs for print as well as email. Authorizations and Approvals The sales journey is fraught with roadblocks across the path and it is always a challenge for the sales personnel to keep pushing through these roadblocks to come out on the other side with a successful sale. One such process is obtaining timely approvals across the sales journey. These approvals could be sought for scope confirmations, estimations, quotations, discounts, order processing, invoicing, credit control and many other aspects of the sales process. As a consequence, the CRM system can start to automatically identify conditions where the process can be approved or escalated for approvals on pre-defined data parameters. If the approval authorities do not react to the approval requests within a pre-defined timeline, the system can be triggered to automatically remind the approver, reroute the approval request to a different person, role or hierarchy, or have the system take the decision to auto-approve or auto-reject the approval request. Again, the system provides adequate controls in ensuring that nothing “falls off the radar” and timely approvals are received for the sales process to propagate from desk to desk. Moreover, the audit trail controls ensure that traceability of approvals will always be available for audit purposes. Invoicing, Delivery & Receipts The automation procvesses of follow ups within the CRM journey will boost the conversion of prospects into clients. The next steps of the process of raising invoices, alerting the delivery team

THE CORE OF ENQUIRY TO CASH REVOLVES AROUND OPPORTUNITY MANAGEMENT. THE MOMENT A LEAD OR OPPORTUNITY IS CREATED WITHIN A COMPANY, IT MUST BE REGISTERED WITHIN THE CRM AND ASSIGNED TO AN “OWNER”.

and raising collection receipts can all be automatically propagated through the CRM and raised within the CRM environments itself. As such, the receipt raising process can directly be within the hands of sales teams where they can instantly provide payment receipts to customers and collect their objective – cash! Embedded Document Management The embedded document management engine of the CRM further integrates with cloud-based document storage solutions such as Google Drive and OneDrive, and also provides an internal document library which can be used to build a digital document archive. The attachments module further provides the ability to tag and attach documents across various points through the journeys of each of the modules described, providing a paperless environment for the journey from Enquiry to Cash! Essentially, the digital transformation of sales management through a robust and well-implemented CRM system will ultimately make your business and your customers smile.

SIMPLIFYING THE COMPLEXITY OF HUMAN CAPITAL, PERFORMANCE, REWARDS By Zameer Qureshi, AVP ME , Centra Hub

Solutions such as Centra HCM can help organizations manage statutory payroll requirements, while providing transparency to employees for their future rewards and growth benefits.

H

uman resources are like natural resources since they are often buried deep. And you have to go looking for them. They are not just lying around on the surface - Ken Robinson The two types of capital required to start, sustain and grow any business are financial and intellectual.

12

August 2018 — Issue 7

Multiple sources exist to get financial capital, but the latter requires a multi-dimensional effort. These include hiring the right resources, necessary tools for execution of tasks, right environment, and right development policies. Moreover, it is often difficult to find the best candidates for a job. Once identified you cannot afford to lose candidates due to a tedious, onboarding process. This is especially true in regions where there are visa and regional statutory guidelines to be followed. A well-defined solution can help to remove delays and get resources on board rapidly by demarking roles of the recruiter and the recruit. Further, the secret of retaining and motivating employees is to find out what they want and show them how to get it. A smart balance of remuneration and growth of job role, goes a long way in maintaining higher retention levels. Human resource departments face a challenge in creating a compensation structure in accordance with regional legal requirements. This complexity increases if there are multiple regions. Having an internal payroll system that can be adapted to cater to dynamic requirements eases the burden on the human resources team. It also avoids

possible conflicts with employees over on-going compensation errors. Employee payouts in the GCC region are governed by schemes such as WPS, GOSI, others. A small mistake in computation can make an organization suffer financial losses as well as affect its institutional credibility. Over a period of time, it is not just the net monthly income which holds employees. Everyone wants to achieve brilliance and is always striving for that extra edge over others. As part of the manpower, it is very vital that employees find themselves in sync with the vision and road map of the organization. There are no best practice plans for human resources. Growth charters need to be designed and periodically amended based on the region, teams and individuals. One of the most important is to get right the rewards, recognition and compensation plans for employees. Since people work for people, it is important to have systems in place that bridge the gap between the employer and the employee. All employees need to be well aware of the parameters affecting their performance score card. Centra HCM offers a comprehensive solution covering all aspects of manpower management. The solution requires marginal customization, which can be completed using tools available within the application. Centra HCM provides an end to end solution enabling organizations to define their processes for the entire manpower life cycle. This covers planning of manpower, recruitment, onboarding, payroll computation, compensation, benefits, leaves, loans, learning, development and performance management.


NEW FEATURES HCM FEATURES Creating weekly holiday calendar This feature enables a user to create the weekly holiday calendar. The process is simple, and it involves selecting the weekly holiday option within the calendar category. Weekends and public holidays can be identified and recorded within the calendar. The weekly holiday calendar can then be used for assigning rotating shifts to employees. This feature can be added during the shift assignment process. UI Enhancement - Shortlist This feature enables an easy shortlisting process. The candidate screen has a “show all” option where the whole list of candidates can be viewed. From this view, shortlisted candidates can be man-

ually selected, and if all the candidates need to be shortlisted, then there is a provision of “select all” as well. UI Enhancement - Scheduling This feature takes the shortlist process ahead to the scheduling process. There is a provision to manually select the shortlisted candidate and fill up required fields like the interview date, interview time and the recruiter. This in turn can be entered in the calendar in the form of an event.

CRM FEATURES CRM Mobile App We are launching a mobile app for our CRM processes like sales, marketing, service modules and Custom Applications. This App would be available on the android platform. It will contribute to maintaining client and team interactions with ease and on a real-time basis. Email Tracking This feature has the provision for tracking all the replies received from Customer Contacts and enabling them to be automatically tagged to an Opportunity/Request/ Custom Module as per the configuration and mapping settings. Email to Request/ Opportunity When a customer mail is sent to support@domain.com the email is automatically converted to a request. Similarly, an email which is sent to the email id sales@domain. com is automatically converted into a lead or an opportunity.

Load Image in Body Grid This feature facilitates uploading images in the body section of a webform. Images can be easily uploaded in the form of an attachment. Customizing User Resources Path User specific paths can be defined to point to user-specific resources such as documents, images or backups. Asset Hierarchies within Service Contracts Parent and child asset hierarchies can now be loaded within service contracts through the selection of asset groups, allowing for maintenance contracts to be designed at a child asset level as well. Approval Hierarchy Controls In multi-hierarchy approval scenarios, if a rejection is received from a particular level in the approval chain, once corrective data is provided, the approval process will continue on from the level at which it was rejected instead of starting all over again.

OneDrive Integration Attachments within the CRM can be stored on the cloud within the Microsoft OneDrive account of the client. The link of the OneDrive location will be saved within the CRM. Notifications Grouping Notifications will be grouped by user instead providing an optimized and organized method of receiving and responding to notifications. Module 360 Enhancement This feature enables the configuration of Module 360 Degrees Reports within the report designer tools pertaining to all the modules where the parent module is related. Enhancement in Workflow Link Module This feature revaluates rules on link loading. Reports and Chart in Report Scheduler The report scheduler is now enabled with providing reports with charts.
