David Lewis & Associates Integrates with DealerTrack
David Lewis & Associates (DLA) announced June 17 that it has completed its integration with DealerTrack’s multi-lender financing platform. According to the company, the integration enables users to electronically transmit deal information in application format to their lenders of choice directly from any of three DLA Auto Systems 2000 dealership sales modules (Secondary Finance, Lease, and Retail).
DLA says it will begin offering the integrated product in July to its 500 plus dealers, most of whom are already DealerTrack users. Plans to expand the integration also include a solution that allows DLA users to participate in DealerTrack’s electronic contracting service by populating the contract specifics from deals created within the DLA module. DealerTrack will then transmit a virtual contract with encrypted digital signatures directly into the lender’s mainframe system.
