Integrated Dealer Systems (IDS), provider of dealer management software for the RV and marine industries, has launched its new Industry Insights Dashboards. This expansion of the IDS Leadership Insights analytics platform is one of the only tools available that lets RV dealers benchmark sales and service performance against both regional and national averages, IDS said in a release.
“We developed the Industry Insights dashboards in partnership with dealers because in today’s market, knowing how your dealership stacks up against your peers isn’t just helpful — it’s essential,” says Don Miller, senior data innovation manager at IDS. “These dashboards give dealers the context they need to drive real growth.”
IDS Leadership Insights users can access two benchmarking dashboards:
- Sales Dashboard: Average financed deal structures, F&I performance, average deliveries per lot, gross margin, finance penetration and more. Segment by new vs. used units, consignment sales, motorized vs. towable RVs and more.
- Service Dashboard: Average work order count per lot, average repair event cycle time, average billed hours per work order, average sales per work order and more.
The IDS Industry Insights Sales Dashboard is already available to all Leadership Insights users at no additional cost, and the Service Dashboard is rolling out now.
RV dealers are already benefitting from these new views, IDS said.
“We have been utilizing the IDS Industry Insights page for the past two months, and it has proven to be an invaluable resource,” says Dan Moore, general manager at Pinnacle RV of Fort Worth. “This tool has not only helped us identify strategic opportunities for improvement but has also highlighted areas where we are excelling. It supports our ongoing commitment to operational excellence and informed decision-making.”
“Our use of Leadership Insights has been extensive, and the new IDS Industry Insights page has been highly valuable,” says Corbin Croom, general sales manager at RV Country. “For example, comparing average financed deal structures by location against the broader West market has provided clear insight into how well we are structuring deals relative to the market. Working with IDS and their Leadership Insights team has also been phenomenal, and their support continues to add value to our business.”
Note: IDS Industry Insights does not currently offer regional averages for Canadian dealers.
