The two-year deal, with a one-year option, includes all inspection, collection and refurbishment for ALD Automotive’s de-fleet process and sees ALD adopt BCA’s Fleet Control Monitor to handle inventory management requirements.

As preferred supplier, BCA will sell the majority of ALD’s de-fleeted stock with a comprehensive programme for cars at the Blackbushe, Belle Vue, Nottingham, Birmingham and Edinburgh remarketing centres, with light commercials sold at Blackbushe, Belle Vue and Glasgow. Sales will feature up to 50 vehicles, each with V5 and service history, where applicable, and BCA Assured will be offered on all cars. Vehicles will also be offered on the BCA Live Online platform.

Greg Taylor, ALD Automotive operations director, commented: ‘BCA ’s innovative and “joined-up” approach to remarketing, their integrated logistics offering and inventory management through the advanced Fleet Control Monitor system will be a major step forward. In the wholesale arena, BCA’s Live Online service also delivers genuinely incremental buying power, while their BCA Assured and video appraisal tools offer ALD other key advantages.’
