Adesa, a business unit of KAR Auction Services, Inc. d/b/a KAR Global, announced advanced inspection capabilities, delivering consistency and confidence throughout the wholesale buyer and seller experience. Adesa’s new software platform offers quality inspections – making significant leaps in transparency, relevance and accuracy.
“The most important element for the digital transformation of our industry is the condition report – the ability to emulate that in-lane tire kicking through a virtual format,” said Srisu Subrahmanyam, chief operating officer of Adesa. “So we’re investing heavily in enhanced digital inspection tools to support a more consistent experience and give dealers the confidence and peace of mind they need when purchasing vehicles through digital channels. Everyone benefits – sellers can access information faster to make smarter reconditioning choices, and buyers will have high resolution images and inspection details to make the most informed bidding decision.”
Adesa’s new inspection platform enables on-site vehicle inspectors with an advanced, hand held, phone based technology and a fine tuned software application to capture more precise and complete vehicle information. Inspections will include higher quality and higher resolution photos to enhance vehicle condition reports. With a more intuitive design, inspectors can complete each inspection more accurately and consistently, presenting the vehicle for sale with the most relevant and meaningful information to potential buyers. Adesa has rolled out its new inspection capabilities across all U.S. locations, and anticipates completing onboarding of its Canada locations in the first quarter of 2021.
