Dealership CRM/DMS Gap Assessment

Practical diagnostic tool for Canadian dealerships to assess where CRM and DMS setups leave delivery readiness visibility gaps.

Use this in monthly operating reviews, implementation planning, and cross-functional leadership sessions where teams need clear visibility of delivery blockers and handover risk.

How to score

  • 0 = not visible
  • 1 = partially visible
  • 2 = clearly visible and managed

Score each section against current operating reality, not intended future state. Total maximum score is 10.
