A Japanese automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) wanted to re-engineer its legacy application for determining the price and configuring the model and accessories of vehicles in North America.
Infosys upgraded the application with an advanced technology stack to streamline the supply chain.
Key Challenges
- Manual vehicle model setup in a mainframe sequential file lacked real-time data audit resulting in sub-par data governance and security
- Manual pricing system for 500 models and 4,000 accessories lacked flexibility in pricing simulation

The Solution
Modernization of pricing and product configuration application streamlines the automotive supply chain
Infosys undertook multiple proofs-of-concept using service-oriented architecture (SOA) to identify bottlenecks in the legacy application. Our team simplified the business logic and devised a data governance framework ensuring only relevant data was transmitted to downstream systems.
In the first phase, our team migrated over 34 years of data involving more than 100 programs from an IMS to Oracle database. In the second phase, we undertook data migration of more than 900 programs.
Infosys leveraged a diverse technology stack: REST services using AngularJS, Bootstrap, C#, .NET, SQL Server and OData Services.
The revamped pricing and product configuration application boosted enterprise productivity
- Offered flexibility in pricing simulation
- Enhanced mainframe screens with a responsive user interface
Benefits
Our sophisticated application enhanced the vehicle supply chain –
Made real-time data available for downstream / upstream activities
Generated reports based on real-time data, ensuring timely and informed business decisions
