Dealers who have the most efficient recon operations consistently average 3 to 4 days from recon start to frontline. They also know where every car is at all times because every step has a clear owner/tech who is connected to it through their mobile phone.
The best example of how this works is how quickly a UCM can approve an itemized list in only a few minutes right from their mobile phone anytime-anywhere. When the UCM approval happens in a workflow system, it sets the pace for time-to-market.
Try this simple exercise – List what you believe are your average real times for:
Add these up for your store, and do not use the best-case numbers because they all count. If your number is 6-days or greater, then you are a perfect candidate for workflow.
Before implementing workflow, dealers average 10-12 days or higher, and burn an extra week of prime selling time.
And, if you are not measuring your time-to-market, it is likely that holding cost is cutting deep into your profitability.
Let us show you how this technology can increase recon productivity, reduce its costs and increase gross.
