Honda Case Study: 30% More Efficient Network Operations

HQ and field team saved 30% of their time — reallocating it to data-led dealer coaching

When actions are linked, KPIs saw a 70% improvement rate — helping the team clearly communicate network priorities

Honda's KPI's improved 3 times faster with Loop — accelerating EV readiness, training and compliance

Honda UK faced a common challenge among automotive brands — converting raw data into meaningful insight and action across its dealer network.

Honda HQ and the field team spent 30% of their time collating, distributing and analysing an abundance of performance data from disparate systems, often in different formats. With manual processes consuming valuable time, they struggled to have impactful, data-led conversations – leading to slower decision-making.

They needed a new approach to drive continuous improvement.

An example of the tools available in Loop

Honda's login page to Loop Honda’s new approach to network performance centred around a Honda-branded version of Loop. Prior to launch, we collected, cleansed, aggregated and seamlessly weaved the data into the platform. The implementation phase was quick, successful and built to be scalable.

Joint accountability

“Above our expectations was the feedback from the dealer network who see the value of having the information in one place and the joint accountability. Being able to give single sign-on and access to our dealer groups management teams is a real winner in time saved and clarity of performance and improvement.”

Data-driven conversations

“Our first return is time saved by our field teams, most of the information we are using was already available, however in a suite of disparate reports. Bringing all of this information together has stopped the requirement of cut and paste reporting, mitigating error... We have now moved over to ensuring our activity targeting is more aligned with our network capabilities, with a view over time supporting those sometimes emotional conversations.”

Industry-leading insights

"Totally recommend Loop, the business insight that my team and I get from their system is excellent and industry-leading for sure. Combine this with the reporting and visit/action recording and forecasting tool give total transparency for all parties."
