Arkona announces certified integration

of the ARKONA Dealership Management System (DMS) with BMW.

Arkona says its philosophy is to continually evolve its DMS solution by adding functionality, features,

enhancements and OEM integrations. The new certified integration with BMW is indicative of that

philosophy and is provided to Arkona dealership clients with no initial or recurring cost.

“We needed improved dealer management system technologies to help us reign in the costs of computer

systems while providing greater insight to our dealerships so we can make informed decisions,” said

Eddie Devault, CEO, Chapman BMW, Chapman Automotive Group. “Arkona has given us that

advantage. Now, BMW integration gives us timely information and allows our personnel to be more

efficient in their daily tasks saving us even more money.”

“This certified integration represents another significant addition to the Arkona product suite. BMW

dealerships using Arkona will have a seamless exchange of information between the dealership and

BMW,” said Richard Holland, president. “We appreciate the spirit of cooperation between BMW of

North America and Arkona. Integration puts more control into dealers’ hands by streamlining the flow

of information and adding entirely new levels of information access that are critical to managing their

dealerships."
