Kawasaki Motors Finance Corporation Selects White Clarke Group’s Floorplan Finance Software

Posted 02/12/2020
Kawasaki Motors Finance Corporation has announced its selection of White Clarke Group’s CALMS Compass floorplan finance software.

Kawasaki Motor Finance Corporation (KMFC) provides inventory financing services to the independent retail dealer network of Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A.  As a part of their initiative to enhance the dealer experience, KMFC was seeking a new floorplan platform.

White Clarke Group was selected based on their long experience and knowledge of the powersports floorplan industry; the CALMS Compass solution is already in use by thousands of powersports dealerships across North America. “After searching the marketplace, we found that White Clarke Group stood out most because of their highly regarded track record and strong presence in powersports,” said Steve Chavez, Senior Manager of Credit Services at KMFC.  “It became clear they were the best choice for what we needed across all our requirements.”

Jay Edwards, Senior VP of Business Development for White Clarke Group, elaborated on the relationship: “We have a lot of experience in this sector and know that dealerships have found that CALMS Compass has significantly improved the way they work. We’re thrilled to be working with Kawasaki and are confident that the new solution will really help them to streamline their operations.”

KMFC’s CALMS Compass floorplan finance solution is anticipated to go live in 2020.
