"Lack of instant load and rate visibility,frequently delayed payments and operating cash crunches are creating a huge market for digital brokerage solutions,as in the very least they enable faster brokerage,instant electronic upload of proof of delivery as well as electronic payment terms," said Silpa Paul, Industry Analyst, Mobility. "Meanwhile,Big Data and Internet of Things (IoT) are spawning opportunities for business solutions based on data analysis,and autonomous driving technology is fostering services such as platooning,which are expected to deliver fuel savings of 4 percent to 11 percent per truck."

"By 2025,online channels are likely to become the key differentiating sales tool for OEMs and dealers. Almost 70 percent of sales leads will come through digital channels rather than traditional channels,and an omni-channel strategy will help increase lead conversion by 40 percent to 50 percent," noted Paul. "OEMs will also be looking to deliver new services,such as automated freight aggregation, as a value addition to their fleet customers."

Successful OEMs and dealers will identify and respond to the following revenue opportunities:

Investing in start-ups involved in digital technologies. This will help OEMs cope with a highly integrated ecosystem of real-time diagnostics,online booking of services and repairs,remote repairs,assisted repairs,remote diagnostics,and prognostics.

Leveraging omni-channel customer touchpoints to develop a seamless,personalized customer experience across digital and brick-and-mortar channels.
