PITDRAFTFor importers & exporters
Car import management software that follows the unit from auction to sale
Generic dealership CRMs assume the car is already on your lot, priced in one currency. PITDRAFT is built for the other trade: buying abroad, paying costs in three currencies, selling stock that's still on the water, and knowing the margin before it lands.
Built around the import workflow
Auction sourcing, logged at the bid
A unit exists in your system the moment it's bought at auction — lot reference, purchase currency, buyer fees and the agent who sourced it, all on one record.
Multi-currency landed cost
Purchase price, freight, duty, inspection and repairs land in the currency they were paid in, then convert to your base currency with your own exchange rates.
In-transit reservations
Sell units that are still on the water. Reservations lock a specific vehicle to a specific buyer, so two agents can't promise the same chassis.
Stations across borders
Run a source market and a sales market side by side. Each station keeps its own stock, its own team and its own pricing currency.
Leads routed to a real person
WhatsApp and web enquiries capture budget and interest, then auto-assign to an agent at the right station with response time tracked.
Margin you can see per unit
Every cost line rolls into a live profit figure per vehicle, so you know which lanes and which lots actually made money.
One record, four stages
Buy
Log the auction purchase with all-in cost in the currency you paid.
Ship
Track the unit in transit while adding freight, duty and clearing costs.
Reserve
Hold the vehicle for a buyer before it lands, with deposits recorded.
Sell
Close the deal, issue a receipt and see the realised margin per unit.
Common questions
- What is car import management software?
- It's a system that tracks imported vehicles from the point of purchase abroad through shipping, customs clearance and final sale — including landed cost, buyer reservations and per-unit profit, rather than only managing stock already on the lot.
- Can PITDRAFT handle multiple currencies?
- Yes. Costs are recorded in the currency they were paid in and converted to your organisation's base currency using exchange rates you control, so landed cost and margin stay accurate across markets.
- Can I sell a vehicle that hasn't arrived yet?
- Yes. Reservations lock a specific vehicle to a specific buyer while it is still in transit, and the system prevents two agents from reserving the same unit.
- Does it work across several branches or countries?
- Yes. Stations let you run separate source and sales locations under one organisation, each with its own inventory, team members and pricing currency.
