GRESHAM, Ore. –

This week, Scan123 announced the integration of its electronic document management system with Auto/Mate Dealership Systems.

Officials said the integration can help dealers transition to a paperless environment, streamline workflow and help them to comply with federal law.

“Integrating our system with Auto/Mate’s DMS was inexpensive and relatively easy due to the Open/Mate integration program, which is based on open standards,” said Gordon Vavrek, sales manager with Scan123.

“Integration with a top tier DMS provider allows us to expand our customer base and improve our service to our current customers that use Auto/Mate's DMS,” Vavrek continued.

Scan123's electronic document management solution can delivers these other benefits to dealers:

— Increases productivity, multiple users can access the same file at the same time with a quick search

— Backs up all files in digital format, ridding stores of paper.

— Reduces filing costs associated with folders, filing cabinets and storage fees

— Restricts access to sensitive files with granular user permissions

— Allows secure access to files from anywhere using a 256-bit encrypted Internet connection

"The ability to instantly retrieve information from a DMS allows employees to quickly answer inquiries from partners and customers, increasing productivity and customer satisfaction," said Mike Esposito, president and chief executive officer of Auto/Mate Dealership Systems.

“With a document management solution, your employees may never have to say, ‘Let me look that up and get back to you’ again,” Esposito added.
