Dealer group Drive Vauxhall has extended its contract with Manheim Aftersales Solutions until the end of 2013.

All of Drive Vauxhall’s eleven locations in Aldershot, Bristol Central, Bristol North, Bury St Edmunds, Hartlepool, Haverhill, Leamington Spa, Leicester, Redcar, Weston-super-Mare and Yate will be using the software which is designed to maximise revenues from dealership aftersales departments.

This now brings to over 600 the total number of dealers deploying Manheim Aftersales Solutions’ revenue-generating products for the management of their aftersales operations.

Manheim Aftersales Solutions, formerly RTC, was formed in 2001 to support dealers in managing their servicing and aftersales activities.

Chris Elvidge, financial director of Drive Vauxhall, said: “We have been using this aftersales software for a number of years now and there is no doubt that it has made the aftersales operation more effective and has helped to maximise revenue.”

Tim Baumfield, managing director of Manheim Aftersales Solutions, said: “In the current tough retail climate dealers are looking to maximise revenues from all areas of their businesses and aftersales is no exception.”
