vAuto Provision: Inventory management

The product pages describe a Vehicle Journey report that shows each vehicle's history in one place, including prior sales, auction activity and service records with repair orders and declined services. The company presents this as more than a standard history report because it draws on Cox Automotive data.

Listing management is part of the description: automated listing syndication and photo management, which vAuto says reduces manual effort and speeds time to market. Reporting and mobile-friendly tools let a team see inventory performance from a phone.

vAuto says Provision connects with Stockwave and iRecon, described as tools that support inventory management from acquisition to reconditioning. A separate page lists connected solutions, and a page for Conquest covers the company's new car inventory management software.

A vAuto release, carried by Cox Automotive, PR Newswire and trade outlets, announced centralized inventory management for Provision and ProfitTime GPS to support oversight across a dealer group, plus a new appraisal experience with mobile capture.

vAuto also publishes an about page, an inventory management guide and a page on variable-based pricing and management, which explain its approach. Software Finder carries an independent listing for Provision.

A used-car director evaluating Provision would ask how market comparables are chosen, how often pricing recommendations are refreshed, how the store's own pricing rules are applied, how the product supports a group with several rooftops, and what reporting the store receives on aging inventory. The category guide for used inventory management lists the shared checklist.

Ask what is included. Get it in writing.

VinSolutions says its CRM connects to vAuto Provision, so customer information lines up with inventory decisions. Sending bulk acquisition leads from vAuto's Global Search into the CRM is one listed use.

Another is sourcing vehicles from the service department.

The pages also describe seeing active leads on each vehicle inside the pricing tool. In 2026 Cox Automotive announced unified inventory sourcing with AI workflows built into the CRM and service views.

Provision is vAuto's tool for stocking, appraising and pricing used inventory from a live view of the local market. A global search brings auction, trade-in and other sourcing channels into one dashboard, and the Advanced Workbench lets a buyer set criteria such as year, mileage, market days supply and past profit.

Vehicles and age buckets carry A to F grades so a manager can spot where turn is slowing. Market days supply is shown for each unit.

Ask how often market data refreshes, how pricing rules treat vehicles past a set age and whether grades can be explained to a sales team.
