Reynolds and Reynolds docuPAD

Reynolds and Reynolds docuPAD: Reynolds and Reynolds describes the docuPAD System as an interactive F&I menu and compliance tool for dealerships. The company says it streamlines the contract process and customer engagement.

It presents the product as a way to meet changing regulatory demands, though the store remains responsible for its own compliance.

The docuPAD is a touch screen device, described with a 4K display, on which a customer views and selects menu options. An electronic signature capture feature is built in, so signing happens on the same device.

Reynolds says the design supports a consistent presentation for each customer.

Reynolds describes eContracting through the system, including a signing feature called DEALsign and a contracts-in-transit tool called CIT Intel for tracking contracts after the deal. RouteOne and Reynolds announced an integration between eContracting and docuPAD, reported by F&I and Showroom.

A GM Financial page describes eContracting through docuPAD with that lender.

Other coverage includes an Auto Remarketing roundup of updates involving Darwin, RouteOne, Reynolds and Hendrick. A PR Newswire release saying Hendrick Automotive Group added the docuPAD System in all of its dealerships.

Reynolds also runs an F&I boot camp for the American Financial and Insurance Professionals group and a compliance solutions page.

SoftwareOne lists the product on its marketplace, and Ringlead Automotive publishes an outside review of Reynolds that discusses dealers' views.

A finance manager or general manager would ask how the menu is configured for the store's providers and rates, how disclosures are shown and stored, how the device connects to the DMS and to the lenders the store uses, how contracts are tracked until funding and how the store keeps the device and software updated.

The record sits beside the Reynolds document management and desking entries. The category guide for F&I menus and e-contracting lists a neutral checklist for use with docuPAD and with the other providers.

Ask who supports it. Ask about training time.

Hardware is part of the purchase. Product write-ups describe a tabletop touchscreen display with built-in speakers that sits on a finance manager's desk, so a store should plan for desk space, cabling and where customers will sit.

A direct connection to RouteOne's eContracting lets a finance manager capture signatures on the device and send contracts to RouteOne without switching applications. One dealer-review site calls it the strongest product in the Reynolds suite for stores that put F&I compliance first, which is an opinion to test against your own lenders and menu.
