Managing recon manually using spreadsheets, whiteboards or other means to track and manage the work to be performed on each car is no longer viable in today's velocity driven market.

Improved process workflow and accountability 1-2-3
1. The first step to solve this issue was to find a tool that would connect everyone to a shared workflow system using mobile, or desktop, and could keep the information updated anytime from anywhere.
2. It is important, that each step in the workflow have a specific "owner". The step's owner is individually responsible to the GM for keeping all their cars in the correct step, day and night.
