A&R’s co-founder, Alfredo Buonopane, and EVP, Jordan Chezy, saw the lack of an automotive-specific security company and how this missing piece was affecting their own clients. Together with industry experts in security, they have created Dealer Security.
Dealer Security’s goal is to utilize its combined automotive and security experience to provide solutions that work for the automotive world. Their focus will be providing video surveillance and key management solutions, in additional to security consulting.
Dealer Security has partnered up with Vancouver-based video technology manufacturer, Avigilon, to provide dealers industry-best video surveillance solutions—solutions that prevent crime instead of only recording it. With their state-of-the-art video analytics, Avigilon provides a preventative solution to dealership security, stopping the crime before the damage is done. In addition, Avigilon’s HD cameras can also prevent fraudulent customer claims and internal employee theft.
Dealer Security video analytics can do more than stop crime… it can also be used as a sales and operational tool. With this system, you better manage your dealership and your staff—everything from alerts when employees are smoking to ensuring that customers are not wandering the lot without being greeted by sales personnel. You also can generate analytics, such as measuring lot activity by vehicle type and model. The possibilities are endless.
Key management solutions are provided in partnership with industry-leading KEYper Systems. KEYper has a long history in high security and government solutions, and it has taken the automotive world by storm with their electronic key control systems. From sales to service, drop-off to pick-up, there is a key management solution that is right for your dealership and will increase productivity and security almost overnight.
Dealer Security’s services and expertise go beyond physical security and analytics. We can provide your dealership with an audit of its weaknesses and provide a plan to help plug those holes. As criminal activity becomes more technologically sophisticated, crime against automotive dealerships is becoming more frequent and more expensive to fix. This is why Dealer Security was born and it is why we are securing the automotive world.
