RFID for Dealers: Vehicle and Stock Control

RFID for Dealerships: Vehicle, Stock, and Asset Control

Dealers manage new vehicles, used vehicles, camps, exhibitions, workshops, driving tests, keys, documentation, and constant movements between locations. Keeping an updated view of each vehicle and associated assets is key to reducing errors, improving operations, and speeding up customer service.

The technology RFID allows vehicles, keys, temporary license plates, documentation, equipment, or internal assets to be identified without the need for individual manual scanning. This facilitates stock control, vehicle location, entry and exit tracking, test management, and movement tracing within the dealership, workshop, camp, or logistics center.

More visibility in exhibition, campaign, workshop, and vehicle delivery

In a dealership, information must accompany the vehicle from reception to final delivery: location, status, availability, preparation, review, test, documentation, sale, and exit. RFID allows automatic registration of movements and connect those data with the dealership management systems.

Dipole designs RFID solutions adapted to dealerships, distribution groups, commercial networks, used vehicle centers, official workshops, and logistics camps. The solution may include RFID labels, vehicle tags or keys, portable readers, antennas, reading points, RFID software and integration with DMS, ERP, CRM or internal systems to convert each reading into useful information for daily operations.

IDENTIFICATION

We offer RFID solutions at Dipole to uniquely identify new vehicles, used vehicles, keys, license plates, documentation, accessories, spare parts and internal assets of the dealership, associating each element with key information such as model, chassis, location, status, entry into stock or phase of the commercial process.

DETECTION

We integrate RFID tags, readers, antennas, arches and portable devices to detect vehicles, keys and materials in campuses, parking lots, workshops, exhibition areas, warehouses and delivery points, allowing for quick location of assets and reducing manual searches within the dealership.

MANAGEMENT

We connect RFID technology with ERP, DMS, CRM, stock management platforms or internal tools of the dealership to automate inventories, control vehicle movements, manage keys, optimize deliveries, reduce losses and improve operational traceability from reception to sale.
