Support drive towards sustainability
"I wanted to do it properly so I opted to work in partnership with a provider who understands document management. Someone turns the lights on, and that’s when the cogs start whirling. They’re intelligent people which fills me with confidence, so I have no doubt that it will deliver what it says on the tin."
The Solution
Inspiring positive change
mstore platform replaced paper-based working
Kanban inspired digital job board replaced T card system
Single platform across the dealership including aftersales, HR, affinity
"I’m saving one person per year simply to chase sales paperwork. It’s changed the dynamic in the sales process to be more proactive and thorough than before. We can be better, smarter and make the job more interesting.I anticipate benefits in the longer term to reallocate resource and become better at something else. Storage costs go, offices become tidier, communications flow easier, and we’re bringing our workplace into the 21st century.”
The Results
