NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

For publication in North America only

Volvo Financial Services has selected Sword Apak (www.sword-apak.com) to implement its Wholesale Floorplanning System (WFS). The new solution will support the Volvo Financial Services commercial finance portfolio, including MACK^® trucks, Volvo trucks and Volvo construction equipment. WFS will replace the incumbent in-house applications currently used by Volvo Financial Services in North America.

Sales Director for Sword Apak, James Powell commented, “We are delighted that Volvo Financial Services has selected Sword Apak to address its floorplanning requirement. We believe WFS offers a premium global floorplanning solution and fills the void that currently exists in the North American wholesale market, as more floorplanning providers look to replace outdated solutions with new technology.”

As well as representing a future proof technology platform, WFS will provide remote browser access for dealer self-service. Mack truck, Volvo truck and Volvo construction equipment dealers will be able to payoff loans, retrieve statements, and view their inventory and available credit online. Enhanced user-defined workflow functionality will also provide for the streamlining of multiple business processes at Volvo Financial Services including credit operations, new business processing, collections, document, title and payment management which will help to automate key procedures for maximum efficiency.
