Drivers and passengers increasingly want and expect to have access to connected services in their vehicles. Connected vehicle space is a fast-growing market and a strategic priority for the automotive industry. At the same time, the diagnostics data that the system generates can provide OEMs with insights to enhance services in multiple areas including CRM/marketing, quality, customer services, after-sales and research and development. During the carIT Congress, Axel Schmidt, managing director in Accenture’s Automotive industry, will provide a complete, end-to-end vision and approach.
