In today's rapidly evolving automotive industry, staying ahead of the curve requires more than just innovative products—it demands efficient, scalable, and flexible business operations. Speedmaster, a leading name in the auto parts manufacturing sector, has exemplified this approach through its strategic adoption of cutting-edge technology to streamline its global operations.
A Legacy of Excellence
Founded over 40 years ago, Speedmaster started as a humble family business with a passion for high-performance automotive parts. Our journey from a small-scale operation to a globally recognized brand has been marked by key moments of growth and innovation, driven by our commitment to quality and excellence.
Jason Kencevski, our CEO, recently shared the story of Speedmaster's evolution on the NetSuite Podcast. He delves into how his father's vision laid the foundation for our success and how the company has navigated the complexities of the modern automotive market.
Under the Hood: The Technology That Drives Us
Jason's deep interest in technology has been a catalyst for many of Speedmaster's advancements. Early on, we adopted SAP Business One to manage our growing business. However, as Jason explains in the podcast, while SAP provided a solid foundation, it soon became apparent that it wasn't enough to meet the demands of our increasingly complex operations.
This realization led us to explore more dynamic solutions, and ultimately, we made the decision to switch to NetSuite—a decision that has paid off in spades. As Jason highlights, NetSuite's "living, breathing system" allows us to make more informed decisions, streamline our supply chain, and effectively manage our global presence.
Shifting Gears with NetSuite
One of the significant advantages we've gained from NetSuite is the ability to efficiently handle international operations. From managing a global supply chain to optimizing ecommerce and online marketplace sales, NetSuite has provided the tools necessary to keep our operations running smoothly and effectively.
In the podcast, Jason goes into detail about how NetSuite supports Speedmaster's efforts to maintain real-time inventory management, eliminate silos, and ensure that our products reach customers promptly, no matter where they are in the world.
The Road Ahead: What’s Next for Speedmaster
As we continue to grow and expand our reach, Speedmaster remains committed to leveraging technology to drive success. Jason discusses our future plans, including expanding our data capabilities and potentially opening new facilities closer to our major markets on the East Coast.
With NetSuite by our side, we're confident in our ability to meet the challenges of the future head-on and continue providing our customers with the high-quality products they've come to expect from Speedmaster.
