The Challenge
Rick Case Honda Dealership Network (South Florida) was losing 30 minutes every morning to manual report generation. Managers spent valuable time logging into multiple systems, copying data, and formatting spreadsheets—time that could have been spent on customer service and strategic management. The pain points were significant: • 30 Minutes Daily: Every morning spent on repetitive manual data collection • Multiple Systems: Data scattered across 5+ platforms (CRM, DMS, inventory, finance, service) • Error-Prone Process: Manual copy-paste leading to occasional errors and inconsistencies • Peak Time Loss: Report generation during critical morning customer activity hours • Manager Frustration: Administrative burden instead of strategic work • Inconsistent Formatting: Different managers formatting reports differently across locations
