End-to-end reconditioning workflow management for automotive dealerships. Every vehicle from trade-in to frontline, with each stage timestamped so the delays are visible instead of argued about.
Reconditioning is where used-car gross quietly disappears. A vehicle sitting in the back lot waiting to be assigned costs the same holding money as one on the lift, but only one of those shows up in a conversation about shop capacity.
Vehicle Recon Tracker exists to make that invisible time visible. It follows a vehicle from the moment you take ownership to the moment it is photographed and listed, timestamping every handoff along the way.
The capabilities that carry the most weight day to day.
Every vehicle's current status at a glance - where it is, who owns the next step, and how long it has been sitting there.
Inspection, approval, parts, sublet, detail and photos are each recorded separately, so a long cycle can be traced to the step that caused it.
The clock starts at acquisition, not at the shop door, which is where most stores lose days without realising it.
A vehicle waiting on a back-ordered part becomes its own visible state rather than a note somewhere, so it stops blending in with work in progress.
Each step has an owner. Approvals stop being anonymous, which is usually enough on its own to shorten them.
Average time to line, broken out by stage and by vendor. The answer to how long recon takes becomes a report rather than an opinion.
We built this because the stores we worked with could all name their recon target and almost none could measure their actual one. The number lived in a spreadsheet that was already out of date, or in somebody's head.
Adding technicians rarely fixes a slow cycle, because the constraint is usually waiting rather than working. Once each wait is timestamped, the fix tends to become obvious without anyone needing to be persuaded.
