Heavy-duty truck manufacturer with global dealer and service network
Volvo Trucks manufactures and distributes medium- and heavy-duty trucks through a 2,200-point service network spanning ~130 countries, with assembly operations in 12 countries. The tech stack is operationally mature (SAP, Salesforce, Power BI, SQL) but shows no active cloud-data or AI adoption—a gap typical of legacy manufacturing. Active projects cluster around sales-region redesign, work-order digitalization, and lean optimization, while pain points center on fleet efficiency, technician scarcity, and dealer profitability, suggesting the business is optimizing existing operations rather than pursuing disruptive innovation.
Notable leadership hires: Workshop Lead, Spare Parts Lead, Workshop Team Lead
