Volkswagen Group UK needed a new approach to network performance management — it was no longer practical to pull information from multiple tools.

With each brand using its own system, getting a clear, unified view of network performance was impossible. Initiatives were implemented, but measuring their impact was a challenge.

They set out to find a solution that would deliver a single, consolidated view of performance for everyone and help the group meet industry standards and stay compliant.
