Client Profile  

Automotive Dealership Group Achieves Rapid Growth 

Foundation Automotive is a fast-growing international group of automotive dealerships with three stores in Canada and 34 US stores across Texas, Colorado, North Dakota, and Tennessee. The company achieves rapid growth through well-planned auto dealership acquisitions across North America. 

Challenge  

Integrating New Dealerships Efficiently While Reducing Exposure to Fines and Fees 

With plans to acquire 15+ dealerships annually, Foundation Automotive needed to: 

• Establish compliant processes 

• Ensure completion of frequent F&I and EHS audits 

• Centralize safety records 

• Effectively manage and close open issues 

• Hold all dealerships accountable 

• Avoid fines/fees and lower insurance premiums 

“We’re moving fast. I’ve only been here for six months, and in that time, we’ve acquired six new locations,” said Compliance Administrator Allison Miller. “A lot that can go wrong in the industry if we’re not following laws and regulations.”  

“We need to have all the necessary info in one platform to stay ahead of the game.”
