Used Car Management

Another core issue for FIER is Used Car Management. As a result of development in the automotive retail industry a healthy and financially viable approach of used cars is of paramount importance for many car retailers. Activities of FIER vary from the implementation of used car programs to the support of national sales companies and dealerships in analysing and improving the profitability of their used car practice. For this a specific methodology has been developed that already proved its effectiveness in many cases in Europe. A short overview of the issues that are dealt with in this process:

  1. A profound business planning, secured in the entire organisation
  2. Analysis of present stock, potential margin of the stock and possible improvement measures.
  3. Presentation in and around the dealership and the use of promotion mix.
  4. Organisation of internal processes (from vehicle evaluation trough refurbishment and sales process)
  5. Human resources (remuneration, incentives, knowledge management etc.)

Quality Management

The implementation and maintenance of an effective quality management system is a growing challenge for many automotive retailers. FIER has broad experience in assisting companies in this field. For several players FIER develops, organises and executes quality audits and mystery shopping events for sales and after sales. Key in this is a useful translation of quality goals and criteria to the working environment and vice versa.
