Executing at 200mph: How RFK Racing Runs on Precision, Not Guesswork

Customer Profile

Founded in 1988, RFK Racing is a premier NASCAR team competing at the highest level of motorsport. Operating across 38 races each year, RFK Racing manages a highly complex environment involving millions of individual components, continuous vehicle development, and tightly coordinated logistics across engineering, procurement, and trackside operations.

Each race car is built, rebuilt, and refined using thousands of precision-engineered parts. From diagnostics and testing to wind tunnel development and race-day execution, RFK Racing operates in a constant cycle of iteration where timing, accuracy, and control are critical.

Before Syspro, RFK Racing relied on a competitor purchasing module alongside manual Excel-based purchasing, receiving, and inventory tracking. As the complexity of the supply chain increased following the Next Gen transition, the team needed a single, connected platform to replace that mix of systems.

In 2025, RFK Racing made the switch to Syspro as a unified cloud platform across procurement and finance, creating a single, connected view of its operational environment. The purchasing and accounting teams now operate from the same system, with all AP, AR, and GL activity running through Syspro alongside the full PO and goods received note process.

Syspro enables the team to:

• Manage approximately 5,000 active parts through the full procurement lifecycle, from purchase order to goods receipt.
• Maintain accurate visibility over supplier performance and purchasing activity across all external vendors.
• Run all financial operations including AP, AR, and GL from a single platform, replacing disconnected manual processes.
• Build automated financial reporting through integration with Insight Software, enabling faster detection of unplanned spending or duplicate orders before they become larger problems.

By replacing a mix of legacy ERP modules and manual spreadsheets with a single connected system, RFK Racing has brought its purchasing and accounting teams onto shared data for the first time.

The Outcome

With Syspro as its operational backbone, RFK Racing has replaced manual, disconnected processes with a single source of truth for procurement and finance. Automated financial reporting, built through integration with Insight Software, allows the team to quickly identify unplanned spending or duplicate orders before they escalate. At reporting time, automated workflows save the team days of work per cycle.

Motorsport is a sport of marginal gains, and that philosophy extends to back-office operations. With 38 races a year, every efficiency matters. RFK Racing also sees Syspro as a foundation for the next phase of operational intelligence, with AI-driven trend analysis in procurement and inventory among the areas the team is actively watching.
