From a production focused to a customer experience driven across all its brands

Roll out 4 brands in record time

Players in the spare parts market, such as automotive manufacturers and equipment suppliers, face increasing complexity. This leading recreational vehicle company chose to reinvent itself, shifting from a production-centered approach to a customer-focused strategy.

The goal was to launch a modern e-commerce platform to support inventory growth while leveraging its existing infrastructure. With Black Friday approaching, we defined a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to mitigate risks and progressively launched four websites for its different brands, utilizing Adobe Commerce’s multi-store functionality.

Our UX experts designed a conversion-optimized interface, simplifying product search and compatibility with an integrated OEM parts catalog. The integration of a PIM solution, Akeneo, enabled seamless data management across Adobe Commerce, SAP, and Adobe DAM.

This partnership confirms that a customer-centric approach is a winning strategic choice.

About this company

A Canadian market leader in the recreational vehicles.

Vehicles, Accessories, parts and apparel.

Challenges

  • Multiple technologies, 5 brands, 2 teams.

  • More than 20 000 employees in 120 countries.

Creation of a quick product search tool

One of the biggest challenges our team faced was getting the right parts and accessories to the right vehicle owner. So we integrated an OEM parts finder to allow owners to easily search by vehicle/year/series/packaging/parts and ensure they get the exact part for their vehicle.

Multi brand rollout

Teamwork is one of our core values and it was clear that along with the company’s digital department, we needed to work hand in hand to achieve success.

We had to discover, build, integrate and deploy 4 brands over a 6 month period, just in time for Black Friday.

We laid the groundwork for a state-of-the-art Adobe Commerce platform by taking advantage of its out-of-the-box capabilities for a rapid development cycle.

Practical is the new black

Consumers expect quality digital expertise from premium brands. “Convenience is the new premium” when it comes to product information and research.

Our PIM team connected Akeneo PIM with their ERP, Adobe Commerce, Transperfect and their DAM (Digital Asset Management) to find the right information to enrich and push it to Adobe Commerce.

As for the user interface, we focused on creating a branded PDP (Product Detail Page) to present the right enriched product data.
