The BM Parts team is attending one of the most anticipated industry events of the year: Automechanika 2024 in Frankfurt. It’s an invaluable opportunity to connect with our partners, explore the latest innovations, and engage with the trendsetters shaping the future of our industry. While we’re excited to be part of this incredible event, it’s also important to acknowledge the daily challenges we continue to face. Navigating the complexities of the automotive industry requires constant adaptation and resilience. The Ukrainian automotive aftermarket faces various challenges, from supply chain disruptions and digital transformation to changing customer expectations, economic instability, security threats, and labor mobilization. Despite these challenges, our unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction remains a top priority. We value every customer and are actively working to address these challenges through strategic investments, operational improvements, and a focus on your satisfaction. By remaining flexible and adapting to market changes, we are confident in our ability to maintain our leadership position and grow successfully in an increasingly competitive and wartime environment. Our team is committed to this growth and to serving our partners and customers with excellence. Our motto is PREPARED FOR THE ROAD AHEAD. As a value-added distributor, we are developing the industry with you.

It looks like an amazing event! The digital commerce space is evolving rapidly, but with that comes common challenges like scaling infrastructure, handling large volumes of transaction data, and ensuring real-time insights for decision-making. Many businesses also struggle with integrating new systems without disrupting their current operations. These are exactly the areas where optimizing data processing, providing scalable infrastructure, and delivering real-time analytics can make a huge impact. Addressing these not only enhances performance but also drives growth in an increasingly competitive market. Always exciting to see solutions that help digital commerce move forward! Ian Owczarek is there if anyone wants to talk about it more onsite! :)

Brian As I mentioned when I saw you at NADA...I am most grateful for all that I have learned from your education dedication. And I am all for the de-legacy-ing of retail auto. For me, the challenge is not the validity of the technology...it's the integration of that tech into existing dealer processes that may be perceived as "good enough" (currently) for that retail auto decision maker. I got into retail auto when you could get a dealer leader's attention by using the "if you could just sell/service one or a few more cars" close. Those days are long gone and they should be. I believe the effective retail auto leaders today look at the "disruption" factor a lot more than they did in the past. In most cases, when you integrate a new piece of technology success is going to require a change in the people who deliver the existing process...and thus adapting the culture to that "new way" as well. Plus, this is a business that lives/dies in a 30 day cycle of accountability and any disruption could affect that negatively. New products/processes take time to seed...sometimes, a lot of time. And as we all know, culture change is behavior change...the hardest change for leaders and their suppliers to navigate. Former leader of AutoNation MIKE JACKSON has said...the retail auto "culture" doesn't always seem "logical" to retail auto innovators and people outside the industry...night can be day, up can be down, etc. Just thinking...
