DaimlerChrysler Services

DaimlerChrysler Services (DCS) North America LLC provides brand-specific financing for automotive dealers' inventories and their retail consumers in the United States, Canada, Mexico, South America and Puerto Rico with over 5,800 employees and a portfolio of more than $95 billion with nearly five million contracts.

DCS selected Teradata as a strategic partner for the DCS initiative "Single Point of Truth" (SPOT). SPOT addresses several DCS challenges, including: difficulty generating consolidated reports from scattered data repositories, limited ad-hoc query capability, high dependence on technical experts to gather and extract information, and high costs associated with dozens of data marts. Teradata will dramatically enhance information access for DCS business leaders and key decision makers throughout North and South America by providing the management team with a single, enterprise-wide view of the business.
