ADESA said Monday that dealers and buyers at any of its U.S. locations can now utilize the services of transportation company CarsArrive.

ADESA announced that CarsArrive has been integrated at all of its U.S. auction locations, a process which began more than a year ago.

Commenting on the news, Tom Caruso, president and chief executive officer of ADESA, said, “When we acquired OPENLANE, we were pleased to also gain the fully automated transportation solution in the industry.

“During the last 12 months, we invested the resources to execute this complete integration. It’s a big success, and we are now able to offer a top technology transportation platform available on the market today at all of our ADESA U.S. auction locations,” he continued.

Highlighting CarsArrive in greater detail, ADESA said the transportation company “is completely integrated in every aspect of the transportation marketplace.

“With more than 4,500 transport companies and 30,000 trucks in its network, the company is well-equipped to handle the needs of all of ADESA’s U.S. auction locations,” officials added.

Basically, the  CarsArrive Internet-based platform consolidates shipments and optimizes both full and partial loads in real time.

It also touts a customized dashboard, which supplies real-time data and analytics to customers.

This includes instant access to price quotes and delivery times as well as notification of available shipments.

“CarsArrive is now delivering approximately 1 million used vehicles annually, and ADESA is an excellent addition to our current portfolio of customers,” said Michael Briggs, president and CEO of CarsArrive. “I am excited to offer them our cutting-edge transportation and logistics technology, which is strengthened by our size, scope and nearly two decades in the transportation industry.”

A similar implementation has begun in Canada, as well, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2013.
