Toyota Motor Corporation Australia (TMCA) has acquired software development and implementation business, Revolution Software Services, effective from April 1, 2020.
The acquisition will enhance Toyota Australia’s ability to deliver dealer software management solutions and support their dealer network as TMCA transitions into a mobility company.
Revolution has provided the technologies and services for Toyota New Zealand’s (TNZ) dealer management system (DMS) known as TUNZ, which is a New Zealand version of the TUNE DMS system it provides in Australia.
“Following this announcement, Toyota New Zealand will work closely with our Australian counterparts, Revolution and Toyota Stores to update our development roadmap for TUNZ,” says Toyota New Zealand general manager of business technology Andrew Davis.
“We will continue to have dedicated resources and support that focus on maximising TUNZ for our dealers and customers.”
Toyota Australia’s Mike Rausa says more than 200 Toyota and Lexus dealers across Australia are expected to be using this platform by the end of 2023.
“This acquisition gives us the ability to work closely with our dealers to integrate best-practice technologies and know-how in a challenging mobility environment,” Rausa says.
