Which Service Does Your Dealership Need?
Most stores come to us with a symptom rather than a service in mind. Here is how the four engagements map to the problems we hear most often.
| If this sounds like your store | Start here |
|---|---|
| We cannot trust our on-hand quantities or bin locations, and parts-to-GL never ties out. | Physical Inventory |
| We counted last year, but obsolescence keeps creeping back and nobody is watching it monthly. | Inventory Analysis |
| We are buying, selling, or closing a store and need defensible asset values. | Buy / Sell Acquisition |
| Our numbers are fine, but the department runs differently depending on who is working. | Training |
| Honestly, all of the above. | Talk to us and we will sequence it |
How the Services Work Together
These are four separate engagements, but they are not four unrelated ones. The sequence that produces the most durable result is usually the same.
A physical inventory comes first, because everything downstream depends on records you can trust. You cannot analyze, value, or manage an inventory you have not accurately counted. Ongoing inventory analysis then protects that accuracy month over month, catching liability while parts are still returnable rather than after the window closes.
Training addresses the reason records drift in the first place. Corrected numbers plus unchanged habits produces the same problem again in eighteen months. And when a transaction appears on the horizon, buy/sell asset appraisal work is dramatically easier, and materially more favorable, for a dealership whose inventory is already clean and documented.
What Every Engagement Includes
- Independent, third-party work. We are not your staff and we are not your buyer, which is what makes the numbers defensible.
- Licensed, bonded, and insured staff. The liability of having non-dealership personnel in your department rests with us.
- Work inside your DMS. CDK Global, Reynolds & Reynolds, Dealertrack, Tekion, and all major platforms.
- Nationwide coverage. Based in Phoenix, traveling to dealerships throughout the United States and Canada.
- A free, no-obligation quote. Every engagement is scoped and priced to your store.
