PTC Warranty manages all aspects of the warranty service lifecycle, from the first call to customer service team all the way until products are repaired or returned and you have been fully reimbursed from your supplier.

PTC helps manufacturers address the biggest challenges in warranty management including:

  • High warranty costs and lower service revenue due to inefficient warranty processes
  • Low warranty reimbursements recovered from suppliers
  • Inefficient product return processes causing delays in returns
  • Need to track manufacturer & OEM service status of recall campaigns from start to finish
  • Inadequate inspection processes result in poor product quality and high warranty costs
  • Delays in ordering of parts and lack o visibility of orders requires manual processing and tracking
  • Erroneous claims being submitted & unnecessary repairs processed due to lack of systemic rules to validate correct part claims
  • Warranty integration with the parts catalog to eliminate manual entry of claim forms
