Electronic Key Tracking System
The so�ware is accessible on all smart devices
The Keytracker electronic system keeps all keys secure and quickly accessible. The intelligent cabinets automa�cally record all key transac�ons through a powerful, easy to use so�ware applica�on, providing automated email reports and alerts that monitor, control and track every key movement, throughout mul�-site businesses.
“While managing the security and accessibility of keys, the Keytracker system has increased produc�vity and therefore increased sales, which of course is fantas�c.”
Keytracker Accessibility of keys are crucial to sales and service businesses within the Automo�ve Industry, but keeping these secure whilst easily accessible, without �me consuming administra�on can prove challenging. Keytracker products are designed to effec�vely manage, track and control valuable keys and/or smart devices which allows our customers to do what they do best, without the hassle of searching for or re-buying lost keys or equipment.
Tracked Keys Tell The Whole Story... 20
AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY SUPPLIERS GUIDE 2019
Mechanical Key Tracking System The Keytracker mechanical system is a simple peg-in peg-out solu�on for managing keys; issuing all authorised users with personalised ‘access pegs’ guarantees that when a set of keys is removed from the cabinet, you will be able to iden�fy the person who removed them at a glance.

here’s never a bad time to think about whether current partnerships are the right ones for your business and whether a new supplier could transform your company. Perhaps you’ve been with the same supplier for years but were unaware of new businesses and technology now available in the sector. Perhaps you’ve been wanting to change supplier but didn’t know where to start or just didn’t have the time to explore the options. This is where we can help. In this special section of the guide, we showcase our Top Suppliers of 2019. These are the businesses with whom you should be talking to find out what they can offer your company. We’ve been speaking with them to find out what’s new, what they can do for you and why they’re the best of the best. First up, we’ve got legal firm to the motor trade Lawgistics. It’s known for offering top-quality legal
advice if ever a car dealer or garage has an issue with a customer. However, there’s much more to it than that – find out about its HR Manager. Next we have motor trade marketing provider GForces. The data this company has from billions of consumer interactions with its products is giving it an edge over other businesses in 2019 and it’s one to watch! It’s a core part of any business: how do you fund yourself and your customers? We’ve spoken to Barclays Partner Finance about how it’s working with car dealers to offer a more seamless service both for today and the future. The dealer management system from eDynamix is renowned for allowing you to manage a customer through the service life cycle and maintain and increase loyalty with your business. It explains how it can help you do this with ease in your own dealership this year.

otor trade legal experts Lawgistics were set up in 2001 by the previous managing director of LawData David Combes and his lifelong friend the late Dennis Chapman. Both were former trading standards officers who could offer legal solutions for car dealers who couldn’t understand the confusing legislation aimed at protecting consumers. Speaking with sales and marketing director Joel Combes – David’s son – for this feature, it’s clear the breadth of the business’s offering was far greater than its reputation in the early days. ‘We already had a reputation for solving problems such as consumer issues. If members had an issue with the sale of a vehicle or with work they had carried out on a vehicle, we would get involved,’ said Joel. ‘But what people didn’t realise was that we would routinely deal with employment law and health and safety matters for our
38
AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY SUPPLIERS GUIDE 2019
members, as well as protecting them from unfair contract terms handed to them from suppliers and chasing monies owed.’ Lawgistics has seen an influx in its membership each time new legislation is implemented. The first example of this was in 2005 when the FSA introduced new regulations on insurance warranties.
– now there’s HR help as well The implementation of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 was the next big milestone for Lawgistics. ‘As we approached the introduction of the CRA 2015, we made the decision to be proactive and the legal team scrutinised the legislation and began publishing guidance on how to operate within the CRA,’ Joel explained. He added: ‘The introduction of GDPR also saw a big rise in membership, as people were looking for good, honest guidance.’ What’s next for Lawgistics then? ‘One of the biggest issues we have is an employer will come to us and say they have an issue with an employee. We’ll ask if they have a contract and find out that it’s out of date,’ Joel explained. ‘Therefore we needed a solution that was easy to understand and simple to use, to help our members manage their employees.’ Called HR Manager, this enables the business to take control of its employee management, and facilitates compliance with employment law, health and safety and GDPR, all in an online database. ‘Directors or owners of the business have legal obligations but they may not enjoy the task of doing it. HR Manager enables directors to delegate the responsibility to key people to ensure that these tasks are carried out while giving their employees the tools to complete those tasks. ‘Because HR Manager gives you a live version of a contract, it is continually updated. You still have to issue the contract to the employee and at this point it starts to get old, but when we update something that’s critical we’ll send you a message advising you to reissue your contract. HR Manager
Joel Combes, left, and David Combes outside Lawgistics’ offices was developed with the independent dealer in mind – however, we are also seeing huge interest from franchise groups.’ The best thing about HR Manager is it’s free to Lawgistics members. A lite version of HR Manager has also been created for federations. Full members also get the benefit of managing appraisals, disciplinaries, performance reviews, forms to compose letters correctly and free access to the health and safety plus data protection modules. Joel concluded: ‘We are extremely proud of HR Manager, as well as being surprised and overwhelmed with the demand for it.’

oes it sometimes feel like every time you look online the world of motor finance has evolved into something you might not quite recognise? Whether that’s ever-changing market dynamics, additional regulatory expectations, Generation Z demands for an increasing digital and omni-channel experience, an uncertain economic horizon rife through the headlines, or changing views on the future of motor fuels… Adam Mepham, Motor Sales Director from Barclays Partner Finance, believes that we can get through the challenges of today’s ever-changing market dynamics thanks to innovation, collaboration and an ability to constantly evolve. ‘What is absolutely key is that we support our partners here and now, but also focus on the longterm plan for all of our businesses. ‘It’s also how we deploy digital innovation to deliver and exceed consumer expectations, and how we’re able to exceed dealer expectations.’ Despite a dip in overall UK car sales figures during 2018, buyers have flocked to the forecourts – and it’s here where Mepham believes partnership and innovation will lead the way, through a strong collaboration between dealer and finance partner. ‘I think that when we look to 2019, the significance of who dealers choose to be their partners is more important than ever,’ he said. ‘It’s important that dealers ensure that their finance partner is working with
them on a shared agenda and understands their business goals.’ And working together is a key theme for Barclays Partner Finance. Dealers and Area Sales Managers share a close working relationship, with a consistent exchange between the two helping to create stronger ideas and innovative new strategies. ‘Meetings are very collaborative conversations discussing how we can support dealers in achieving their objectives, but

‘It’s important that dealers ensure that their finance partner is working with them on a shared agenda and understands their business goals.’ also, as an outside organisation we can sometimes give them a different perspective. ‘Our partnerships also provide the opportunity for us to share our insight and understanding that we have developed.’ It’s that new view of things that keeps a business with 300 years of experience fresh. ‘We like to get our dealers thinking about how the consumer is changing, and how they need
to adapt to meet changes in consumer buying behaviour. We’re seeing much more of a retail model evolving in the motor market.’ This year will see a variety of new initiatives. ‘It’s going to be exciting when we start looking at the innovations that we can bring into this sector in 2019 and beyond off the back of that retail experience,’ said Mepham, and it’s why dealers could benefit from partnering with Barclays Partner Finance.

Bringing self-service together W: edynamix.com T: 0845 413 0000
O
ur goal at eDynamix has always been to create customer-centric systems that allow for 100 per cent self-service. All industries, including the automotive sector, are seeing a shift towards customer centricity, affording customers the opportunity to serve themselves when they want and how they want. The airline industry is a prime example of this, whereby a customer can search for flights and book tickets any time of the day or night through an app, adding baggage, meals, and choosing their preferred seats. When the customer arrives at the airport they scan their e-ticket and present their e-passport before taking their seat on the plane. They have not interacted with any other person during the entire transaction – the definition of customer self-service. Through our unique offering of integrated, customer-centric products we bring self-service to the automotive industry. Through one supplier a dealer can provide online service plans, electronic vehicle health checks with online authorisation, integrated CRM and online bookings plus AutoPoint lockers – full customer self-service combined. These products, on top of links with most DMS systems, allow us to send out service, MOT and red and amber work reminders with a link to an online bookings platform, which automatically loads the service information. A customer has full control over their service experience, including the addition of courtesy cars or special offers. They can even choose if they would like to use an AutoPoint
44
AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY SUPPLIERS GUIDE 2019
locker to drop off their keys. This will send them a unique code for their locker. On arrival, the customer can use the iVHC active digital reception (ADR) module embedded in the lockers to check in their vehicle, alerting staff that the vehicle is on site. On completion of the vehicle health check using iVHC, the customer can view their report online with supporting videos and photographs taken through our VIDEO1st platform, authorising work at the same time. For customers without a service plan, a link can be included to configure and
in palm of a customer’s hand
take out the plan online before collecting the vehicle, where the keys will be waiting in AutoPoint. During the check-out process using iVHC ADR in AutoPoint, customers can book future amber work through an internal version of online bookings. They will then receive an email and SMS reminder in the weeks leading up to the booking with a link to amend it through the online bookings platform if necessary. Our app gives the customer access to vehicle health check records, allows them to authorise
online, keeps them informed of work due, and lets them manage their service schedules and service plans as well as book directly with the dealership. This brings self-service together in one platform in the palm of a customer’s hand. Dealers need to start preparing for Generation Alpha as they will be growing up in a world where everything is connected and they can control their life from their mobile phone. They will expect to serve themselves when and how they want, and those that cannot offer this will be left behind. AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY SUPPLIERS GUIDE 2019
