Whether you operate a single-location dealership or manage a multi-store group, the rising costs of indirect expenses can feel overwhelming. You know the problem is there, but finding the time—or even knowing where to start—can seem impossible.
That’s where Dealer Profit Alliance (DPA) comes in.
We’re here to help new car dealerships across North America reduce indirect expenses and increase profitability without disrupting operations. While DPA works for dealerships of all sizes, it’s especially ideal for 1-3 store groups.

Sourcing Project
Initiation of a sourcing project for a repetitive or one time purchase for one geographic location. Project work includes requirements definition, gathering of invoices, contract if applicable, quoting, analysis, recommendation and presentation to client team. Insurance projects may be priced at a higher rate due to complexity and timing required.
