Transforming business for an enduring future

Celebrating 75 years in business, Abdul Latif Jameel has used their automotive and infrastructure expertise to diversify into new sectors that contribute to the ‘infrastructure of life’ in the MENAT region.

Looking to reposition their Body & Paint division and extend its value proposition to encompass crash repair and offer other after-sales services, ALJ looked to CGA to help them.

Challenge

ALJ appointed CGA to help them fix the basics, bring the current operational standards to a consistent level and create a fit-for-purpose customer experience foundation to respond to market demand. CGA guided ALJ on the pilot launch of the new ‘Autohub’ brand and value proposition, and its underpinning customer experience. ALJ needed to balance existing B2B relationships with direct to market B2C opportunities and identify the potential to digitise the customer journey to deliver significant customer benefits.

Solution

CGA deployed a range of tools and proprietary techniques to help ALJ Body & Paint transform its core business model to create an enduring future. These included:

Results

The transformative programme resulted in a redefined value proposition for the new Autohub brand, leveraging ALJ’s established, reputational trust and innovation in convenience and service.

CGA designed a bespoke voice of the customer feedback programme, with in-built capacity for service-failure recovery and closing the loop. Alongside this, CGA developed a new B2B partner feedback programme, gathering feedback from different client functions to understand areas for business process improvement and productivity gain.
The programme also included the development of new innovative service concepts to provide customer support and convenience to customers when they need it most.
