This week during the National Independent Automobile Dealers Association’s Expo and Convention, Spireon introduced Quick Locate, the latest feature of its GoldStar GPS solution.

The company highlighted Quick Locate can provide dealers and subprime auto finance companies instant visibility to vehicle location and current status, improving efficiency by reducing the need to manually locate vehicles individually.

Spireon went on to note that GoldStar can provide insightful data analytics that make financing vehicles easier, less risky and more profitable.

With the new Quick Locate feature, GoldStar can deliver critical, near real-time information, such as how long a vehicle has been parked in a particular location, or how long it has been in motion, to determine the appropriate course of action.

“For the BHPH industry, having immediate access to the most accurate data possible is key to successfully managing risk and running a profitable business. With Quick Locate, that’s exactly what we deliver, saving our customers valuable time and increasing the likelihood of continuing payments,” said Brian Deeley, director of product management at Spireon.

“As the industry leader, our job is to continually introduce features that streamline operations and increase data intelligence for our customers, giving them more time to focus on growing their business,” Deeley continued.

Representing Spireon, a long-time NIADA Diamond Partner, Deeley will present a NIADA session titled, “Quick Locate and Predictive Insights: Taking Risk Mitigation and Vehicle Recovery to New Heights,” on Thursday beginning at 8:30 a.m. The session will focus on how dealers and finance companies can use location data and predictive insights to improve operational efficiencies and positively impact their bottom line through early detection of potential customer delinquency, improved customer payment behavior, and streamlined recoveries, when necessary.

The new Quick Locate feature is viewable through the GoldStar dashboard. Feature rollout has begun, and will be available to all GoldStar Basic, Pro and Enterprise customers through an over-the-air firmware update.
