European automotive distributor and mobility services operator
Louwman Group is a 3,000-person automotive distributor and mobility provider across the Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, and Czechia. The tech stack reveals a hybrid operational model: heavy reliance on Azure cloud infrastructure (Data Factory, Event Hubs, Data Lake) paired with traditional automotive tools (SAP, AFAS, TOPdesk), suggesting ongoing digitization of legacy dealer and logistics workflows. Active projects around demand prediction, customer segmentation, and a generative AI research assistant indicate a push toward data-driven customer insights—priorities that align with stated pain points around scheduling complexity, process bottlenecks, and financial system modernization.
