BEL AIR, Md. -

Customers interested in the Bel Air Auto Auction and the Tallahassee Auto Auction will have a new auction tool available next month.

BSCAmerica, the parent company of the two auctions, has announced the forthcoming launch of its mobile app, which will allow dealers to view auction information, perform searches and make bids to purchase vehicles via their mobile devices.

With an early-October launch expected for Apple iOS and an Android-compatible version available shortly after, Michelle Nichols, BSCAmerica’s vice president, believes the new app will be a much-appreciated option for busy dealers.

“Our website is an indispensable tool, and we’re pleased to offer the new mobile app that makes its features available to our customers when they are on the go and don’t have access to their desktop computers or laptops,” Nichols said. ‘The app focuses quickly and directly on the tools our customers need to search auction inventory at both Bel Air Auto Auction and Tallahassee Auto Auction, evaluate vehicles, and bid using their mobile devices.”

Nick Pirovolidis, BSCAmerica’s IT manager, said: “Customers already using our website will find similar convenience with BSCAmerica’s mobile app. A simple login with an Auction Access ID will give immediate access to auction inventory.”

Specific features of the app will include the ability view run lists, search vehicles by year, make and model, while also being able to bid on vehicles via simulcast sale.

With its VIN scanning feature, a dealer will be able to order and send condition reports to the dealership and also save their favorite searches and VINs for easy future access with optional notifications when one of the favorites is added to a run list.
