No auto dealership can be successful without dealership management systems (DMS)—essential organizational tools that support operations and collect data that drives planning and decision making.
That’s why Hypercharge developed the Quantev™ Operations Suite, an advanced analytics and management cloud-based platform that integrates seamlessly into your DMS.
The core of our EV charging software solutions for dealerships, Quantev™ optimizes every aspect of your charging operation and delivers a treasure trove of EV charging data that amps up its value for your business.
Here are the top 10 ways Quantev™ EV charging software for dealerships helps you maximize the value of your EV charging investment.
1. Stay on Top of Demand
You can monitor your charging stations in real time, tracking which chargers are available, preparing, or charging.
By staying on top of charger availability, you’ll enhance customer convenience, ensure smooth business operations, and anticipate potential conflicts.
2. Understand EV Charger Usage
Comprehensive reporting on EV charger usage is critical to understanding your entire charging operation.
You’ll learn which chargers are used most frequently, when they are in high demand, the average session length, their energy usage, and more. For multi-site operations, you can tailor your reports by location.
3. Customize Charging Rates
Dealership charging stations have a variety of uses: charging vehicles during service appointments, keeping EV inventory fueled up for test drives, expanding the public EV charging network, and charging staff members’ personal vehicles.
Organizing users into groups allows you to customize charging rates by group, in addition to charger speed and time of day.
4. Tap Into Demographic Data
Our analysis tools provide valuable insights into who uses your EV chargers, their behaviour, and their preferences.
Use this inside knowledge to create operational efficiencies and targeted marketing initiatives and to measure the impact of promotions and incentives.
5. Track Revenue
Whether your charging operation is big or small, transactions need to be managed simply and accurately.
Quantev™ tracks payments and works with your DMS to produce robust reporting and facilitate revenue reconciliation and audit trails.
Hypercharge Pro Tip: The Quantev™ dashboard lets you monitor your charging operations’ financial health at a glance, displaying this month’s revenue and energy costs, as well as percentage changes since last month.
6. Reduce Energy Bills
Need to reign in your energy bills? Running regular reports on your chargers’ energy consumption can inform cost-saving strategies, such as limiting access to chargers during peak demand periods and incentivizing charging during off-peak hours.
If you have battery-integrated chargers, you can adjust their input rate and charging schedules to minimize costs.
7. Balance Power Load
Some dealerships have limited power capacity that may be strained by operating multiple chargers at once.
Hypercharge’s smart load-sharing technology uses real-time data for dynamic power distribution, automatically adjusting the amount of power available to each charger when demand is high.
8. Streamline Accounting
Most dealerships can’t afford to give away free fuel indefinitely, which means not only tracking each chargers’ energy consumption but recovering those costs.
Customers and staff can “pay at the pump” through Hypercharge’s Driver Mobile App, but what if you want to add charging to a service bill? How will you allocate the cost of keeping your inventory charged?
Integrating Hypercharge’s operating platform into your DMS system makes tracking, allocating, and recouping costs a breeze.
9. Manage Carbon Credits
Turn your charging operation into an additional revenue stream by participating in the Hypercharge Carbon Credit Program.
Quantev™ automatically tracks the energy dispensed from your chargers and calculates the carbon credits you’ve earned.
This seamless integration allows you to effortlessly manage, monetize, and report on your carbon credits, enhancing your ROI while showcasing your dealership’s commitment to sustainability.
10. Plan for the Future
Are you ready to scale up your charging operation? Quantev™ Analytics’ predictive analytics tools equip you to perform high-level strategic planning for your electrified future.
