A new automotive partnership is set to revolutionise the pre-service experience for millions of drivers on both sides of the Tasman. 

The partnership between Tjekvik and Auxo Software will see self-service kiosks roll out at New Zealand dealerships. Auxo will also support over 50 Australian dealers already using the technology. 

Auxo CEO Terry Allen said the kiosks will enable customers to provide pre-service instructions, select added-value items, sign their authorisation and securely drop-off their keys using dedicated secure lockers. The same kiosks can also be used to collect keys once work is completed. 

“It’s no stretch to say this will transform the experience for customers,” Allen said. “The Auxo software and Tjekvik digital solutions combined will help even more dealers provide the best experience for their customers and staff.” 

“Shorter wait times, simplicity in giving instructions, and a smoother process are just some of the benefits.” 

ASG will be the first to introduce the digital check-in and check-out technology at its BMW sites in Auckland this month.  

Christian Mark, CEO and Co-Founder at Tjekvik, said the majority of aftersales customers arrive at dealers during peak periods of early morning and late afternoon, quickly creating queues. Tjekvik’s solutions enable service, maintenance and repair customers to avoid these queues by letting them check in their vehicles how, when and where they want, whether it’s at home online, or at the dealership via easy-to-use touchscreen kiosks.  

“This creates a better experience for customers, while also enabling service advisors to spend more time with those customers who require additional support,” Mr Marks says. 

Tjekvik’s digital self-service solutions also enable dealers to benefit from additional revenue opportunities by presenting value-added products and services to customers during the digital check in and check out process. Popular items with customers include service plans, extended warranty packages, wiper blades and key fob batteries.
