ATLANTA – Already an industry leader in wholesale vehicle transportation, Manheim has announced several enhancements to its transportation solution, including changes to full service transportation quotes, management of full service transportation orders and 1Dispatch registration for self-managed orders. These improvements put customers in control, offer them simple and more efficient solutions and help buyers take advantage of Ready Auto Transport’s knowledge and experience.

“These upgrades have been made with our customers’ needs in mind,” said Bonnie Hensler, Manheim’s vice president of product development.  “Our goal is to increase customer productivity through integrated and easy to use transportation functions that allow customers to transport inventory in and out of the marketplace more efficiently. These enhancements will allow our customers more time to focus on buying and selling, and improve their ease of business with Manheim.”  

These enhancements include:

• Customers can now receive a transportation quote on the vehicle details page, Workbook and My Purchases on manheim.com. They can also receive the full service transportation quote after scanning a VIN with their Manheim Mobile app. This will enable customers to make a better purchasing decision.

• In addition, customers will have the ability to order full-service transportation on My Purchases through a desktop computer or mobile device following sales completed both in-lane and via Simulcast.

• Through 1Dispatch registration, customers will now have the ability to start the registration process from Manheim.com, including Vehicle Display Page, Workbook and My Purchases.
