Automotive & Auto Components Industry Software

Cloud Software Built for Automotive & Auto Components in Vietnam

One cloud platform for Vietnam's auto channel: parts importers and distributors, tyre and battery brands, lubricant marketers, OEM dealer networks, and the motorbike service shops and car workshops they all sell through. Priced in VND, settled by cash, COD, VietQR and NAPAS 247, and aligned with the e-invoice rules already in force.

Where Things Break Today

Two Service Networks, One Parts Channel

Vietnam's aftermarket has to be served twice over. A very large and highly fragmented population of motorbike service shops sits alongside a smaller but quickly growing car workshop and tyre bay segment, and both are reached indirectly, through distributors and sub-distributors spread across the North, the Centre and the South. A single national parts plan tends to fit neither.

The Mechanic Picks the Brand

Riders and drivers rarely specify a part. The technician on the bench decides which pad, which oil grade and which battery leave the shop, and until that tier is enrolled and tracked, brand share is an estimate rather than a managed number.

Fitment Errors Eat the Margin

Tens of thousands of references cover motorbike and car applications that look interchangeable and are not. Without model-level fitment search, the counter ships the wrong reference, absorbs the return and loses the fleet order behind it.

Secondary Sales Stay Hidden

Brands see what left the warehouse, not what a sub-distributor pushed into a workshop. By the time a monthly statement lands, ageing stock and an overloaded tier are already someone else's problem to unwind.

Trade Spend Without Evidence

Oil cabinets, tyre racks and battery stands funded in VND drift out of position within weeks. With no photo-backed audit, nobody can say which workshops actually held the agreed standard.

Reward Budgets Never Reach the Bench

Paper codes get copied and claimed by whoever opens the carton first. Without server-side validation, incentive money settles with intermediaries instead of the technician the scheme was written for.

Counterfeit and Grey-Market Stock

Copied filters, pads and lubricants circulate beside genuine stock, and grey imports arrive with no traceable batch behind them. Channel integrity fails the moment nothing links a serial to the invoice that sold it.

Apps that Run the System

Cloud Apps for Daily Field and Channel Work

Two 1Channel apps carry the daily workload for Key Account Managers, Sales Representatives and the mechanic tier. Both ship on Android and iOS and read from the same cloud backend as the web portal, so a scan at a workshop and a report at head office describe the same event.

Automotive Solutions in Detail

Explore Each Automotive Module in Depth

Module-level pages for parts importers and distributors, tyre and battery brands, lubricant marketers, OEM dealer networks, and the workshop channel across the North, the Centre and the South.

Core Module

Field Coverage Across Dealers, Parts Shops and Workshops

A cloud SFA platform configured for the way Vietnamese auto teams actually split their week. Key Account Managers hold cadence with dealer principals, Sales Representatives and Sales Supervisors work high-frequency beats through independent parts shops and workshops, every quote is checked against fitment before it leaves the app, and sell-out rolls up in VND by outlet, by territory and by region.

  • Two Coverage Rhythms, planned Key Account cadence at dealer principals alongside high-frequency Sales Representative beats through independent workshops
  • North, Centre and South Beat Plans, routes built for motorbike service clusters, car workshops, tyre bays and accessory shops across a country 1,650 km long
  • Fitment-Checked Quoting, enter make, model, year and engine or displacement, and the pad, filter, belt or oil grade offered is the one that actually fits
  • Mechanic Coverage Records, capture which technicians the brand has reached, what they recommend today, and how scheme awareness is shifting
  • AI Sales Analytics, sell-out by channel tier, display compliance, mechanic conversion, and 1Voice questions answered in plain language

Distribution Hub

Multi-Tier Parts Distribution, Traced to the Serial

A cloud DMS built around the multi-tier parts trade, where a distributor (nhà phân phối) and its sub-distributors carry the catalogue out to independent workshops. Indents are validated against fitment, stock is held at batch and serial level, each channel tier prices on its own VND list, and warranty returns close against a credit note. Consignments arriving through Hai Phong, Da Nang or Cai Mep-Thi Vai stay traceable from the container to the counter, and invoicing lines up with the e-invoice obligation that has applied to every business in Vietnam since July 2022.

  • Fitment Order Validation, a dealer or sub-distributor indent is tested against the catalogue before stock is allocated to it
  • Serial-Level Channel Integrity, brake components, airbags, steering parts and battery cells carried at serial level so any unit traces back to the invoice that sold it
  • Channel-Tier Pricing in VND, dealer principals, parts wholesalers, sub-distributors, tyre shops, service bays and direct accounts each on a separate list
  • Warranty Parts Flow, a failed part is validated against its own serial history before the credit note is raised automatically
  • Returns and Exchanges, wrong-fitment returns, slow-moving pull-backs and straight swaps run on a single workflow

Rewarding the Tier That Decides the Fitment

Mechanics, workshop owners and end buyers each need a different reason to stay with a brand, and cloud loyalty programs hold all three at once. Codes printed under a scratch panel are verified pack by pack, workshop owners move up tiers on volume and recommendation share, tyres and batteries are registered to the buyer at the moment of fitting, and a validated scan settles to the technician's own bank account or e-wallet within minutes.

  • Verified QR and Scratch Codes, every pack code is checked server-side, with duplicates, cloned codes and out-of-territory claims rejected
  • Workshop Owner Tiers, movement from Silver through Gold to Platinum on monthly VND purchase and on the share of jobs where the brand gets recommended
  • Buyer Warranty Registration, warranties on a battery, tyre or lubricant captured by QR while the job is still on the ramp
  • Payouts and Alerts, settlement to a bank account or e-wallet, with SMS and in-app notices for scheme changes, tier moves and service reminders

Retail Execution

Proving Execution Inside Workshops and Parts Shops

Money spent on an oil cabinet, a tyre rack or a battery stand only counts if the fixture is still in place a month later. An AI retail execution platform sets the standard per campaign, captures it in photographs on every visit, reads the image automatically and scores it outlet by outlet, so the brand argues from evidence rather than from a claim.

  • Workshop and Counter Audits, oil cabinets, tyre racks, battery stands and POSM checked against one fixed standard
  • Three Audit Levels, Sales Representative self-check, Sales Supervisor review and a brand spot-check on anything flagged
  • Visibility Index, SKU availability, facings, branded fixture and anything a competitor has placed adjacent, scored at each call
  • AI Image Recognition, photographs read for SKU presence, fixture layout and rival stock placed beside yours

Training & Learning

Structured Training for Dealers, Reps and Mechanics

Product knowledge is what separates a technician defaulting to a familiar brand from one specifying yours. A cloud LMS carries structured onboarding for dealer and counter staff, short upskilling modules for the mechanic tier, playbooks for service advisors, and certification the SFA app enforces, so nobody quotes a new variant before passing it.

  • Onboarding Paths, first-week modules covering the range, VND price lists, warranty terms and the counter journey
  • Launch Certification, a pass is required before a new model, parts update or oil grade unlocks in the field app
  • Mechanic Upskilling, short in-app videos covering brake systems, tyre compounds, oil grades and battery fitting
  • Service Advisor Playbooks, warranty terms, handover scripts, service intervals and how a complaint gets escalated

How 1Channel Helps

Why 1Channel Fits Vietnamese Auto Brands

What the platform gives parts importers and distributors, tyre and battery brands, lubricant marketers, OEM dealer networks and workshop-facing teams in Vietnam.

One Connected Auto Platform

Field coverage, parts distribution, mechanic loyalty, execution audits and training write to one cloud data layer, so no two teams are working from a different version of the channel.

Configurable Multi-Channel

Dealer principals, parts wholesalers, sub-distributors, tyre shops, service bays and direct accounts each get their own workflow, VND price list and KPI set.

AI Where It Earns Its Place

Image analysis on display photographs, selfie attendance, anomaly detection across mechanic QR claims, and 1Voice for managers who would rather ask a question than build a report.

Built for Vietnam's Mobile Coverage

With 5G reaching most of the population, the field app runs live: a scan in a Mekong Delta workshop reaches head office straight away, and local caching covers only the remote mountain routes that still need it.

Fitment Catalogue Built In

Make, model, year and engine or displacement resolve to one correct reference, with cross-references offered only where a substitution is genuinely equivalent.

ERP and Dealer Integrations

SAP, Oracle and Microsoft Dynamics connect over REST APIs and SFTP feeds, alongside whatever dealer or parts-trading system the channel already runs on.

Quick Go-Live

Phase it. Begin wherever the pain is loudest, usually mechanic loyalty or field coverage, then bring distribution, execution and training on afterwards without a re-implementation.

White-Labelled Apps

The Key Account, rep, mechanic and buyer apps all carry your own branding on Google Play and the App Store.
