SOLUTION DISCOVERY
MISSION
Identify, assess and scale leading edge solutions and technologies for our OEM, retail and industry customers, ultimately increasing ROI. We stop at nothing to accomplish this, and our reputation for doing it precedes us. The process looks like this…
We keep our thumb on the pulse. We combine our own vast automotive experience with a regular cadence of thought partnership interactions with:
- Our OEM and retail customers
- Our strategic partners who include global technology giants, venture capital firms and leading-edge scholastic institutions
- The various innovation labs we run with globally recognized industry leaders
The output is simple… well informed thought leaders with a deep understanding of the opportunities and how to capitalize on them.
We do the leg work. We look at hundreds of solutions and technologies annually, using a proprietary, multi-stage process to assess each solution. This ensures needs alignment, ability to solve the stated problem, and scalability. Through our extensive vetting process, hundreds turn into a select few that meet our stringent criteria.
The select few who meet our assessment criteria become motormindz’s solution partners. We work very closely with our solution partners to define strategic priorities, leveraging our access to rapidly accelerate the adoption of their solution. We also work to vertically align similar solutions for deeper integration and scalability.
Do you have a solution or a technology that has what it takes to create transformative change?
