A university student s technology concept that would easily help dealers inform customers of their car s progress through service has won the inaugural Keyloop Dealer Tech university automotive technology competition.
Created by computer science student Brian Evans of Exeter University, the web-based platform prototype includes pre-populated messages that can be
quickly issued to a customer, including information regarding additional work that is recommended and the ability for the customer to authorise extra cost.
Evans had considered its integration with existing systems such as video.
In total 180 students from Bath, Exeter, Buckingham, Warwick, Surrey and Southampton universities registered to participate in the competition created by Keyloop (formerly known as CDK Global International).
