Recon Workflow · Powered by LocateIQ

Recon that tracks itself.

Front-end gross is thin. The profit you still control sits in the recon line — and MDD shortens it with Time-to-Line data you can actually trust.

Every day in recon is money off the hood.

Holding a used unit costs about $40 a day. Cut one day off Time-to-Line and the numbers add up fast.

Dead capital adds up

A $40K car sitting six extra days in recon burns roughly $240 before it's ever merchandised.

~$40/day holding cost

One day is real money

Shaving a single day off recon across your inventory is worth about $45K a year.

$45K/yr per day cut

The last lever you control

In a compressed-margin market, reconditioning speed is one of the last profit levers fully in your hands.

35% fewer days to lot

Other recon tools wait for someone to click a button.

A car moves to detail, but the system doesn't know until someone updates it — if they do. People forget. And when pay is tied to step times, timestamps get gamed. You end up measuring memory, not your process.

Every used car, every recon stage, in real time.

AI automation that knows every car's status and location.

Service and Recon workflows use AI automation to let you know the work status and location of every car. No more false reports or gaming the system. Less clicks and more accuracy!

Tag at Acquisition

Every vehicle gets a tracking tag the moment it arrives.

AI Tracks Status & Location

As the car moves through shop, detail, and photos, AI automation keeps its work status and location current — no false reports, no gamed timestamps.

3

Shorten Time-to-Line

See exactly where a unit stalled and hold vendors accountable with clean, defensible numbers.

Locked Core Steps. Unlimited Sub-Steps.

Built for dealer groups. Because every store moves through the same locked Core Steps, your data rolls up into one apples-to-apples comparison across every rooftop — something freeform systems can't do, so you can never truly compare one store to the rest. MDD even gamifies it, stack-ranking your stores against each other to drive the whole group's Time-to-Line down. Unlimited Sub-Steps still keep each store's local process intact.

Accurate dwell time at every stage — with AI accuracy you can trust.

Questions used-car managers ask about recon.

What is recon workflow software?
It tracks every used vehicle from acquisition through reconditioning so you can see exactly where each car is in the process and where it is stuck. MDD Recon Workflow is powered by LocateIQ, so stages advance based on the car real location.
How do you reduce days to frontline?
By eliminating the waiting and guesswork between recon steps and flagging cars that are stuck so you can clear the bottleneck. Longo Toyota saves 3 days per car in reconditioning, and MDD dealers see roughly a 35% reduction in days to lot.
Why does recon time cost money?
A $40,000 car sitting in recon for six extra days is dead capital. Every extra day a car sits is cash on the lot instead of on the front line.
How is this different from other recon tools?
Other recon tools wait for someone to click a button to move a car to the next step. MDD advances the workflow from the car physical location, so dwell times are accurate and no step gets skipped or gamed.
Who approves and tracks the recon work?
The sales or used-car manager gets real-time visibility into every car stage and can approve recon work from the phone the team already carries.
