MAHLE Aftermarket chooses robust solution from Getac to develop new automotive diagnostic tool

Getac, a leading provider of rugged computing solutions, is collaborating with MAHLE Aftermarket to develop a new automotive diagnostic tool. This tool runs on the Android operating system and is supported by fully ruggedized hardware. This strategic project marks a new milestone for Getac and demonstrates how the company can provide customized solutions worldwide.

"After extensive market research, we chose Getac because of its international experience within the automotive industry and ability to provide customized solutions based on our specific requirements," says Daniel Hessenauer, Head of Global Product Management Service Solutions at MAHLE Aftermarket.

MAHLE Aftermarket was looking for a trusted technology partner to support its global operations and proactively contribute to the company's way of driving innovation through technology.

The new automotive aftermarket project includes a robust hardware solution that will be delivered to garages specializing in multi-brand vehicles. The goal is to ensure a high standard of quality and improve the customer experience. 

Workshops often face challenging conditions such as dust, grease, moisture and temperature changes, so a rugged solution seemed the best technological choice for MAHLE Aftermarket. There was a need to look for a total solution in the form of a compact, fully rugged Android Enterprise Recommended tablet. This needed to combine portability, mobility, functionality and accessories to help workshops solve their daily challenges more efficiently.

"We are proud to participate in this strategic project and work with MAHLE Aftermarket to create a robust solution that meets the automotive aftermarket needs. We want to help workshops around the world solve everyday challenges as quickly and efficiently as possible, using innovative digital technology," says James Hwang, CEO of Getac Technology Corporation.
