Automotive: ITSM, ITOM, HAM & SAM built for how you actually run
A stalled production line costs more per minute than most IT outages elsewhere ever will. We help automotive manufacturers, suppliers and dealer networks run ITSM, ITOM, HAM and SAM programs that keep plant floor IT/OT systems up, keep global software estates under control, and scale across every plant and market you operate in.
Where this shows up in Automotive
Focused problems we solve for Automotive teams.
Production line incident response (IT/OT)
When a line-stopping fault straddles IT and OT, minutes matter and finger-pointing between teams is the real cost. We build incident processes that bring IT and OT together under one commander from the first alert.
Plant floor CMDB for OT and IT assets
PLCs, robots, MES and ERP systems rarely live in the same asset register as laptops and servers. We build a unified CMDB that gives plant and IT teams one shared picture of what is actually running the line.
Dealer network & connected vehicle change management
Software pushed to dealer systems and connected vehicles needs the same rigor as your core enterprise change process, at a much larger scale. We design change management that scales across thousands of endpoints without slowing releases to a crawl.
Global software license compliance (SAM)
Design, engineering and plant-floor software is licensed differently across sites, subsidiaries and joint ventures. We build SAM programs that catch overlap and non-compliance before an audit finds it for you.
What this looks like in practice
A representative engagement pattern from Automotive.
Reducing line-down minutes with faster IT/OT incident triage
Global automotive manufacturer, multiple assembly plants, mixed IT/OT environment.
Production-line incidents routinely sat unresolved while IT and OT teams debated whether the fault was a network issue, a PLC issue, or an application issue, with no shared asset data to settle the question quickly.
Implemented a joint IT/OT major incident process with a single incident commander, and built a CMDB that mapped network, application and OT assets against each production line so responders could see dependencies immediately.
Line-down minutes fell and the IT/OT finger-pointing that used to precede every fix largely disappeared.
2.0 → 3.7 (before → after, on a 5-point scale)
