AMT, NIADA Team Up for Digital CPO Inspections

ARLINGTON, Texas — Auto inspection and reconditioning software provider AutoMobile Technologies Inc. has joined the National Independent Automobile Dealers Association as a new National Member Benefit partner, the organizations announced. The partnership will make AMT’s digital inspection software available to association members, enabling dealers to designate select vehicles with certified pre-owned status.

“We are proud to join with NIADA in providing its members the ability to offer NIADA Certified vehicles to their customers,” said Eric Meahan, AMT’s executive vice president of operations. “We have seen the competitive advantage CPO vehicles have given our franchise clients, benefiting them in both revenue and customer satisfaction. The NIADA Certified program allows independent dealers to level the playing field with a similar solution. We applaud NIADA for adding this valuable program to its member services offerings.”

AMT’s InspectionNotes software was designed to help users complete the comprehensive 125-point “NIADA Certified” vehicle inspection and generate digital and paper condition reports. That allows dealers to integrate CPO inspections into their existing intake and reconditioning operations and provide the value and security of CPO designation to their customers while increasing margins and decreasing turn time, according to the provider.

“AMT brings an innovative commitment to the best-in-market technology, ease of use, and corresponding profitability for our dealer members on the front and back end of their stores,” NIADA Senior Vice President of Member Services Scott Lilja said. “For our CPO dealers in particular, the mobile inspection solution is a huge enhancement over the current manual process, enhancing productivity, quality, and ability to display both on the physical and digital lot.”
