Description

  The present invention relates to a technique for supporting sales of vehicles.

  Conventionally, distribution of vehicles on the market has been performed through auctions (hereinafter referred to as auto-auctions) conducted between vehicle dealers and dealers. This auto auction is performed when a vehicle dealer (dealer, shop, etc.) submits / successfully makes a vehicle (particularly a used vehicle) as a product.

  In recent years, with the spread of the Internet, auto auctions have been conducted on networks.

  As a result, vehicle dealers and vehicle dealers can conduct auctions from their own terminals, saving time and effort to go to the auction site.

When performing an auto auction using the Internet, a vehicle exhibitor provides various types of information about a vehicle to be displayed to an auction server holding an auto auction. Various information about the vehicle includes information on the vehicle's performance, such as manufacturer name, vehicle type, grade name, year, model, etc., and evaluation of the vehicle by experts, mileage, damage status, etc. Information, market price information of the target vehicle in the auto auction, and the like. These pieces of information serve as conditions for determining a successful bid for the successful bidder. That is, the various information regarding the vehicle transmitted to the auction server is accurate and detailed.

  By the way, when the exhibited vehicle is awarded, the auction server provides information on the successful bid to the successful bidder. The information provided at this time is provisional calculation document information of the successful bid vehicle, information about the vehicle disclosed at the time of exhibition, and the like, and is a part of information held by the auction server.

  When the auction ends, the information at the time of vehicle listing and successful bid is stored by the auto-auction organizer (venue) by recording the information on a recording medium or by printing it out and filing documents. It was.

  However, many of these pieces of information become unnecessary after the auto auction is completed, and therefore, the information is simply stored by the auto auction organizer or disposed only after a certain period of time has passed.

  On the other hand, a contractor who makes a successful bid for a vehicle at an auto auction sells the vehicle based on information about the vehicle disclosed at the time of exhibition provided by the auto auction organizer. The dealer sets the retail price and the business sales price in anticipation of the winning bid amount in the auto auction and the profit of the dealer when selling the vehicle.

However, at this time, only the winning bid amount in the auto auction is the reference for pricing. The winning bid amount is only an amount for competing with other bidders in an auto auction, and the price may differ from the market price.

  Further, information indicating the performance of the vehicle and information indicating the state of the vehicle are attached to the vehicle sold at the store. Information on the degree of vehicle damage (scratches, dents, and paint state) in the information indicating the state of the vehicle is visually inspected by a salesclerk or maintenance staff of the dealer and disclosed to the consumer.

  However, the visual inspection of the capacity and maintenance staff in the dealer has various criteria for judgment, and depending on the dealer, the judgment state of the vehicle may be significantly different from the genuine judgment value. In this case, the consumer cannot determine which information is correct, and may be suspicious as to whether the disclosed information is accurate, and further, the consumer's willingness to purchase may be impaired.

  Therefore, the present invention provides a vehicle information integration system, a vehicle information integration method, and a vehicle information integration program that can effectively utilize information in an auto auction and disclose highly reliable information to consumers. Let it be an issue.

Hereinafter, the operation of each server and terminal in these steps will be described in detail for each item. In the following description, the member store 3 will be described as a case where the vehicle has made a successful bid for the vehicle by autoaction. That is, the exhibition information about the vehicle to be exhibited is transmitted from the member store dedicated terminal 3a to the auction site server 2a.

(1) Step of bidding a vehicle in an auto auction First, the auction site server 2a accepts a bid request from the member store dedicated terminal 3a or the mobile phone terminal 3b. When the bid amount reaches the maximum amount, the auction site server 2a transmits successful bid vehicle information, exhibition information, and provisional calculation information to the integrated database server 4a.

(2) Data conversion process The integrated database server 4a which has received the information performs data conversion. As described above, the received information uses a code unique to the auction site, and there is no point in storing it in the master in the hard disk 13 in the form as it is.

(3) Data accumulation process The successful bid vehicle information, exhibition information, and provisional calculation information converted by the integrated database server 4a are the auto auction successful bid vehicle information master 20, the auto auction exhibition vehicle information master 22, and the provisional calculation, respectively. Stored in the document information master 21. These masters manage the vehicle information by dividing the member store 3 by member.

(4) Retail price / business sales price setting process When the successful bid vehicle information, exhibition information, and provisional statement information are converted and accumulated, the integrated database server 4a stores these information for the member store of the member store 3 that has won the vehicle. It transmits to the terminal 3a and / or the mobile phone terminal 3b.

  The member store 3 sets a retail price and a business sales price based on these pieces of information. The retail price and the business sales price can be input from the screens of the member store dedicated terminal 3a and the mobile phone terminal 3b and transmitted to the integrated database server 4a.

  7 to 9 and 11 show retail price / business sales price input screens displayed on the displays of the member store dedicated terminal 3a and the mobile phone terminal 3b.

  The initial screen A to the retail price / business sales price input screen shown in FIG. 7 is displayed on the displays of the member store dedicated terminal 3a and the mobile phone terminal 3b. On the initial screen A, an auction venue pull-down menu and an icon “next” for moving to the next screen are displayed. By specifying the auction site, the master related to the site is specified. In the member store 3, after specifying the auction site, the “next” icon is selected and operated.

Whether the login screen B matches the item in which the POS number previously given to the member store 3 and the password entered by the member store 3 and the POS number and password are registered. An “approval” icon for transmitting a verification instruction to the integrated database server 4a is displayed.

  When the login is completed, a screen C for displaying the successful bid information of the company shown in FIG. 9 is displayed. On screen C, the name of the auction site, the name of the vehicle that made a successful bid, and the successful bid price are displayed. In addition, in the screen C, there are items for inputting the business sales price and the retail price, and “reference price” for transmitting an instruction to the integrated database server 4a to calculate the reference price calculated from the winning bid price and the market price. An icon and a “registration” icon for executing an instruction to transmit the set business sales price / retail price to the integrated database server 4a are displayed.

  Here, a method for calculating the reference price will be described. Note that the calculation operation of the reference price is executed by the CPU 10 of the integrated database server 4a.

  First, as shown in FIG. 10, the retail price reference value (reference price) R is calculated by multiplying the successful bid price by adding the value of X and the inventory discount rate. The value of X is calculated by multiplying the sum of the retail charge rate, the seasonal addition rate, and the equipment addition rate by the successful bid price. The retail charge rate is set for each vehicle type, such as small cars, regular cars, light cars, large specials, small specials, etc., and the difference between the auction market price and the successful bid price divided by the auction market price (hereinafter, (Referred to as the value of A). As for the type of vehicle (vehicle type), a vehicle type master as shown in FIG. 11 is provided in the hard disk 13 of the integrated database server 4a. The retail price business is determined from this vehicle type master and the auction market price / successful price. The selling price will be calculated.

  As shown in FIG. 10, in the case of an ordinary vehicle, the retail charge rate when the value of A is greater than 30 is 27%, the retail charge rate when the value of A is greater than 15 and less than 30 is 20%, and the value of A The retail charge rate is 12% when A is greater than 0 and 15 or less, and the retail charge rate is 7% when the value of A is 0 or less. In addition, the numerical value (0, 15, 30) used as the criterion for determining a retail charge rate can set the value arbitrarily.

  FIG. 12 shows the seasonal addition rate set for each type of vehicle (body shape). The seasonal addition rate is a multiplication rate set for each vehicle type whose demand rate varies depending on the season. For example, vehicles with vehicle types of 4WD and SUV tend to increase in demand for summer leisure. Therefore, the seasonal increase rate of 4WD and SUV is 7% from May to August.

  Further, FIG. 13 shows an equipment addition rate for adding a price in accordance with the contents of the equipment. For example, when an aluminum wheel is equipped, the price is increased by 5%, and when a navigation system, a TV, or a sunroof is installed, the price is increased by 10%.

  Further, FIG. 14 shows an addition rate for each color for adding a price in accordance with the body color. For example, the price of white, silver (silver), and gray is 5% higher, and the price of green and orange is minus 5%.

  Further, FIG. 15 shows a stock discount rate set according to the number of days since the purchase. For example, when the number of days since the purchase is 0 to 30 days, the rate is “1”, and when the number of days from 31 to 30 days + 1 week has elapsed since the purchase, the rate is “0.99”. When 31 days + 7 weeks or more have passed, the multiplication rate is “0.9”.

  The above is the multiplication rate / addition rate necessary to calculate the retail price reference value. Note that these multiplication rate / addition rate data are stored in each table (retail multiplication rate table, seasonal addition rate table, equipment addition rate table, color-specific addition rate table, etc.) built in the hard disk 13 of the integrated database server 4a. They are stored in a stock discount rate table (both not shown).

  Here, a method for calculating the retail price reference value will be described as an example. For example, a vehicle with an auction market price of 1 million yen (ordinary car, vehicle type: coupe, with airbag and sunroof options, body color: red) is awarded for 900,000 yen. In addition, it is assumed that the month for which a successful bid is made is December, and that the vehicle for which a successful bid has been made has passed seven weeks or more since purchase.

  First, when the seasonal addition rate, the equipment addition rate, the color addition rate, and the inventory discount rate are extracted from these information, the seasonal addition rate is -5% as shown in FIG. 12, and the equipment addition rate is as shown in FIG. + 10%, the additional rate by color is 0% as shown in FIG. 14, and the inventory discount rate is 0.9 as shown in FIG.

  Next, the value of A is calculated. The value of A is 1 when (auction market price is 1 million yen-successful bid price 900,000 yen) / auction market price is 1 million yen. Then, since the value of A is greater than 0 and 15 or less, the retail charge rate is 12% from the table in FIG. Further, when the value of X is calculated using the retail charge rate, the winning bid price is 900,000 yen × (retail charge rate 12% + seasonal addition rate−5% + equipment addition rate + 10%), which is 153,000 yen. As a result, the retail price reference value R is calculated to be 947,700 yen ((successful bid price 900,000 yen + 153,000 yen) x inventory discount rate 0.9.

  Similarly, as shown in FIG. 16, the business sales price reference value (reference price) T is calculated by multiplying the successful bid price by adding the Y value and the inventory discount rate. The value of Y is calculated by multiplying the sum of the business sales ratio, the seasonal extra rate, and the equipment extra rate by the winning bid price. Like the retail charge rate, the business sales charge rate is set for each vehicle type, such as small cars, ordinary cars, light cars, large specials, small specials, etc., and the difference between the auction market price and the successful bid price is the auction market price. It is set based on the value of A divided by (same as described above). In addition, the numerical values (30, 15, 0) that are the criteria for determining the business sales credit ratio are the same as described above. The business sales credit ratio data is stored in a business sales credit ratio table (not shown) built in the hard disk 13 of the integrated database server 4a.

  Here, a method for calculating the business sales price reference value will be described by way of example. For example, a vehicle with an auction market price of 1 million yen (ordinary car, vehicle type: coupe, with airbag and sunroof options, body color: red) is awarded for 900,000 yen. In addition, it is assumed that the month for which a successful bid is made is December, and that the vehicle for which a successful bid has been made has passed seven weeks or more after purchase.

  First, when the seasonal addition rate, the equipment addition rate, the color addition rate, and the inventory discount rate are extracted from these information, the seasonal addition rate is -5% as shown in FIG. 12, and the equipment addition rate is as shown in FIG. + 10%, the additional rate by color is 0% as shown in FIG. 14, and the inventory discount rate is 0.9 as shown in FIG.

Next, the value of A is calculated. The value of A is 1 when (auction market price is 1 million yen-successful bid price 900,000 yen) / auction market price is 1 million yen. Then, since the value of A is greater than 0 and 15 or less, the business sales ratio is 7% from the table in FIG. Further, if the value of Y is calculated using the business sales credit ratio, the winning bid price is 900,000 yen × (business sales credit ratio 7% + seasonal additional rate−5% + equipment additional rate + 10%), which is 108,000 yen. Accordingly, the business sales price reference value T is calculated as (907,200 yen) at (successful bid price: 900,000 yen + 108,000 yen) × inventory discount rate of 0.9.
The above is a detailed description of the reference value for retail prices and the reference value for business sales prices.

Then, the integrated database server 4a executes a process of transmitting the calculated retail price reference value and the business sales price reference value to the member store dedicated terminal 3a and the mobile phone terminal 3b. As described above, the retail price and the business sales price can be determined by operating the “reference price” icon shown in FIG. 9 and referring to the price reference value calculated by the integrated database server 4a. The member store 3 side may arbitrarily input the retail price and the business sales price from the member store dedicated terminal 3a and the mobile phone terminal 3b.

(5) Retail Price Information / Business Sales Price Information Registration Process Next, the integrated database server 4a moves to a process of registering retail price information and business sales price information. The start of this process is triggered by the operation of the “register” icon in the screen C shown in FIG. 9 from the member store dedicated terminal 3a or the mobile phone terminal 3b. When the “registration” icon is operated, the integrated database server 4a has an input retail price (retail price value) and business sales price (business sales price value) other than unknown / unconstant (NULL) and 0 or more. It is determined that. Here, when it is determined that the input retail price and the business sales price are appropriate values, the retail price information and the business sales price information are transmitted to the WEB search server 7a.

(6) Upload process to WEB search server 7a When these information is received by WEB search server 7a, CPU30 stores these information in a seller information master and a business sales vehicle information master suitably.

  Further, the CPU 30 of the WEB search server 7a transmits the received information to each WEB server. In response to this, the WEB server 8 uploads vehicle sales information (retail price, business sales price) to the WEB site 8a. Thereby, as shown in the screen D of FIG. 17, the member store 3, the sales store 6 (a trader), and the end user 5 can confirm the retail price and the business sales price from their terminals.

  Since the business sales price is disclosed only to the contractor, for example, it is displayed encrypted as shown in FIG. If the sales price is 1,650,000 yen, the evaluation score is 05, and the access time is 17:36:22, the sales price is displayed on the screen of the end user (general consumer) 5 terminal. “050013665502200” is displayed. Here, when “05...” Is displayed at the top, “0” is the 14th digit, “5” is the 13th digit, “0” is the 12th digit,. "0" in the first digit and "5" in the thirteenth digit indicate the evaluation score, "0" in the twelfth digit indicates the hundredth of the sales price, and "0" in the eleventh digit indicates the business sales. The tenth digit of the price, “1” in the tenth digit indicates the millions of the sales price, “3” and “6” in the ninth and eighth digits indicate the minutes of access, and 7 "6" in the digit indicates the hundredths of the business sales price, "5" in the sixth digit indicates the tens of the business sales price, and "5" in the fifth digit indicates the thousandths of the business sales price. "2" and "2" in the 4th and 3rd digits indicate seconds of access time, "0" in the 2nd digit indicates hundreds of business sales price, and "0" in the 1st digit Indicates the tenth place of the sales price.

  As described above, according to the vehicle information integration system 1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to confirm the performance and quality of a vehicle by using various information and vehicle exhibition information in an auto auction, and based on these information. Retail prices and business sales prices can be set.

  In addition, according to the vehicle information integration system 1 of the present embodiment, since the price is set quickly, the vehicle sales start time can be advanced, and the vehicle sales can be promoted.

  Furthermore, according to the vehicle information integration system 1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to effectively use the auction information and the exhibition information on the auction site 2 that has become unnecessary when the auction is terminated.

Further, according to the vehicle information integration system 1 of the present embodiment, the member store 3 side uses the auto auction of the vehicle that has made a successful bid when the auto auction ends from its own terminal (member store dedicated terminal 3a, mobile phone terminal 3b). Get market information. The member store 3 can quickly determine the retail price and the business sales price with reference to the market price information. Thereby, the time from a successful bid to sale can be omitted, and the sales timing of the vehicle at the member store 3 can be advanced.

  Furthermore, the auction information according to the present embodiment includes vehicle assessment (evaluation) information by experts. By providing this assessment information to consumers who wish to purchase a vehicle (including all those who purchase vehicles from end users, vehicle dealers, etc.) at the time of vehicle sales, the quality of the vehicle is confirmed to the consumer. You can make it clear. That is, according to the vehicle information integration system, method, and program of the present embodiment, the safety of vehicle sales transactions to consumers can be improved.

  In addition, auction information is useful information when an individual sells a vehicle. By disclosing the evaluation points of the vehicle assessment by experts included in the auction information, the buyer side can recognize the information about the performance and quality of the vehicle, and thus improve the safety and reliability of the transaction Can do.

<Other embodiment 1>
In addition, the integrated database server 4a of the present embodiment can participate in an auto auction conducted only by a merchant such as the member store 3 on behalf of an individual exhibitor.

  The integrated database server 4a receives information about vehicles (exhibition information) from individual buyers, such as a route for receiving information directly like the member store 3 described above, and a WEB operated by the WEB server 8. A route for receiving the exhibition information via the site (vehicle sales site) 8a or the like is conceivable.

  As described above, the system 1 is configured to be able to receive vehicle exhibition information from an individual, so that vehicles existing outside the merchant such as the member store 3 and the seller can be beneficially put on the distribution route. It becomes possible.

Further, according to the vehicle information integration system 1 of the present embodiment, vehicle information is managed by the integrated database server 4a not only from merchants such as the member store 3 and the sales store 6, but also from end users (general individual customers). It is also possible to do this. Therefore, the function of the WEB server 8 of this embodiment is given to the integrated database server 4a of this embodiment. That is, the integrated database server 4a can perform direct sales.
As described above, since the vehicle is sold by the integrated database server 4a, the work of transmitting / receiving information to / from the member store 3, the store 6 or the WEB server 8 is omitted, and therefore, the WEB site 8a via the WEB server 8 is omitted. The vehicle can be put on the sales route earlier than uploading to the store or selling at the store. That is, according to the present invention, promotion of vehicle sales can be supported.

  The form of sales may be a form performed at a store managed by the information integration management company 4, or may be a form performed at a net shop built on the WEB.

  As a result, the time from successful bid auction to sale can be shortened, and vehicle sales can be promoted.

  Further, according to the vehicle information integration system 1, method, and program of the present embodiment, the integrated database server 4a can perform sales of vehicles that are difficult for individuals to sell on the distribution route on behalf of the user.

  As a result, it becomes possible to place vehicles existing outside the merchant, such as the member store 3 and the distributor, on the distribution route.

  In addition, since the integrated database server 4a has a sales function, the auction information and the exhibition information can be used for sales as they are, and therefore, an illegal act of falsifying the information in the course of the vehicle sales route. Can also be prevented.

<Other embodiment 2>
The vehicle information integration system 1 according to the present embodiment may be added with a function for issuing an alarm to a vehicle for which a certain time has elapsed from the start of sales. In order to realize this function, it is necessary to provide information relating to sales (hereinafter referred to as sales information) to the integrated database server 4a from the terminal on the side of the store 6 that sells the vehicle that has been awarded at the auto auction. Become. This sales information includes the sales start date and time, the sales start price, the number of days elapsed since the sales start, and the like.

  In the integrated database server 4a, in order to output an alarm, for example, a period of 3 months from the sales start date and time is set in advance. Then, the CPU 10 of the integrated database server 4a compares the current market price of the vehicle that has passed from the start of sales with the sales start price.

  If the comparison result shows that there is a certain difference between the current market price and the sales start price, an alarm is output so that the vehicle is sold at a reduced price. At this time, the integrated database server 4a preferably calculates the recommended sales price in consideration of the current market price, and outputs the recommended sales price information together with the alarm.

  The alarm output format is preferably electronic mail. For example, an alarm is output by transmitting an e-mail to the terminals 3a and 3b on the member store 3 side that sells the vehicle.

  Further, the integrated database server 4a transmits a form that allows the discount price to be directly input from the member store 3 side to the member store dedicated terminal 3a or the mobile phone terminal 3b. This form is displayed on the display of each terminal. The member store 3 side inputs the discount rate and the sales price after performing the discount from this screen and transmits it to the integrated database server 4a.

  In this manner, by adding a function of outputting an alarm for vehicles that are not in sales, the present system 1 can prevent an increase in the number of vehicles sold and promote sales of vehicles.

<Other embodiment 3>
In addition, the vehicle information integration system 1 of the present embodiment has a function for the member store 3 to transmit its own inventory information to the WEB server in order to upload its own inventory from its own terminal to the sales site on the WEB. It can also be set as the embodiment.

For example, a maintenance screen such as a screen E shown in FIG. 19 is displayed on the display of the member store dedicated terminal 3a or the portable terminal 3b. The screen E displays an inventory list of vehicles for sale and items for selecting a WEB site for uploading (selling) the vehicles for sale in stock. That is, from the screen E, it is possible to upload the inventory of vehicles for sale and select which WEB site to use. In the inventory list, auction box name, exhibition number, vehicle manufacturer, vehicle type, grade, and a check box for inputting which WEB site to sell for each vehicle are displayed.

  The member store 3 side selects and determines a WEB site for sale by checking a check box for each stock vehicle, and calculates a billing amount according to the check item.

  Thus, since the WEB site which sells an inventory vehicle can be determined in the member store 3, the distribution range can be expanded and the disposal rate of an inventory vehicle can be raised.
