SOS

ADMI SPECIAL ORDERS SYSTEM

Sell more parts by improving special order processes

An interactive online program, SOS teaches Dealer participants how to eliminate the “special order problem” for all time, with a proven process for control and accountability. SOS addresses the age-old problem: unsold special orders and consequential introduction of non-stock parts into inventory. With SOS, idle capital created by failed special order processes will stop.

ADMI - SOS

This is a dealership-wide problem, so special-order training should be attended by all key dealership staff: principals, general managers, and department managers, including parts
managers and staff.

SOS training is delivered by an ADMI professional parts sales specialist, in a series of 4 interactive webinars totaling 8 hours (Note: DMS set-ups are implemented during each session as required).
