Client Sucesses - Hall Automotive/MileOne
MileOne Automotive, a large multi-division automotive retailer, relies on a sophisticated set of performance metrics to manage and evaluate the financial performance of
sixty-five dealerships. Continued growth in the number and volume of the dealerships required a more highly automated solution. Hall Automotive, a division of MileOne, located in
Hampton Roads, relies on Marathon for all of their complex web application development, database application development,
and specialized reporting requirements.
Marathon has been a key strategic partner for Hall Automotive in acheiving goals through application development and support.
Marathon's personnel and understanding of our business provide unparralleled value-added support to our organization.
Bill Baker, Executive VP & CFO Hall Automotive
Marathon was contracted to work with the senior executives of Hall Automotive and it's parent company MileOne to design a solution that would consolidate and standardize
the data without reliance on manual spreadsheets. Prior to the development of the new system, data was manually gathered from two distinct applications (one custom application and one proprietary, hosted by a
third-party) and dozens of manual systems. Data was lifted from reports and was then entered into Excel for consolidation and reconciliation. The data included a wide range of
revenue, cost, profit, inventory, and customer data housed in these different archives.
Marathon’s responsibilities during the project included defining requirements and priorities, developing functional and technical design specifications, designing the database,
constructing code, and performing all phases of testing, user acceptance, and implementation.
