Case Study: Walker Automotive achieves major time savings and $300K+ revenue gain with Qlik (VizAuto)

Dealership group saves time and realizes significant revenue growth with VizAuto

Walker Automotive is a fourth‑generation, family-owned dealership group serving Central Louisiana across seven sites with a roughly 60% local new-vehicle market share. Despite extensive data from its Reynolds & Reynolds DMS and other systems, the company struggled with inflexible, time‑consuming reporting that kept insights locked in spreadsheets and limited its ability to improve profitability and customer experience.

Walker implemented VizAuto from Capital Data Analytics, powered by Qlik Sense, to unify data sources and enable flexible, self-service analysis; the platform was deployed in about 30 days. As a result, processes that once took days now take minutes, month-end reporting dropped from 5.5 to 1.5 days, warranty and repair submission work saved 40–80 hours per location, and improved negotiations and visibility have generated over $300k in additional revenue while boosting productivity and customer service.
