Doosan Financial Solutions announced a new strategic partnership between Bobcat Company and Sandhills Global. This program will make it much easier for Bobcat dealerships to manage equipment trade-ins.

Through this new program, Bobcat dealers have direct access to FleetEvaluator, a market analysis benchmarking tool from Sandhills. As a result, Bobcat dealers are able to obtain instant, accurate valuations on equipment anytime, anywhere, using a computer or mobile device.

FleetEvaluator leverages a massive store of real-time listing, transaction and equipment data. Sandhills collects and cleans public data from retail and auction transactions throughout the industry, in addition to sales and listing information from Machinery Trader, TractorHouse, Truck Paper, AuctionTime, and many other Sandhills brands. FleetEvaluator then factors in retail and auction values based on asset location, plus more than 60 health-of-market indicators. Every valuation relies on thousands of real-time, real-world data points.

Having this information readily available enables Bobcat dealers to offer the most competitive value for trade-ins, thereby reducing risk and increasing profit margins.

Scott Lubischer, Sandhills Global’s corporate sale executive, said the strategic partnership represents a closer relationship between Sandhills, Bobcat dealers and Doosan Financial. “We are aligned in a common strategy to efficiently connect Bobcat dealers with highly accurate valuations powered by FleetEvaluator. The result is a more sound dealer group and a fluid lending solution, which enables quick transactions and a great experience for Bobcat customers.”
