Business Challenge#
As part of Nissan's Customer Experience 2.0 (CE 2.0) initiative, customers needed comprehensive tools to make informed financing decisions. The challenge was creating a unified global finance calculator that could:
Customer Experience Goals
Regional Flexibility: Support diverse finance offers across 9 global regions
Real-time Calculations: Provide instant EMI simulations and amortization schedules
Seamless Integration: Connect PACE/OEM websites with regional finance systems
Confident Decision-Making: Empower customers with transparent financial information
Streamlined Process: Simplify quote creation and finance application workflows
The primary challenge was orchestrating complex finance calculations across multiple regional systems while maintaining a consistent user experience globally.
Solution Architecture#
The Global Finance Calculator leveraged CEBIP (Customer Experience Business Integration Platform) as the central orchestration layer, enabling seamless integration across regional finance systems.
Process Flow#
1. Customer Interaction
- Customer selects vehicle on PACE/OEM website
- Explores available finance options and configurations
- Initiates finance offer request
2. Finance Offer Retrieval
- PACE/OEM website requests finance offers from CEBIP
- CEBIP orchestrates requests to Regional Core Systems
- Region-specific finance offers retrieved and presented
3. EMI Simulation
- Customer provides basic information for simulation
- CEBIP requests Indicative Interest Rate (IIR) from regional systems
- Real-time EMI calculation with amortization schedule generation
4. Quote Creation
- Customer proceeds with selected finance option
- CEBIP orchestrates quote creation across regional systems
- Integration with Regional Credit Bureau for credit assessment
- Complete quote generation with acknowledgment
