LONG BEACH, CA – Alliance Inspection Management, Inc. (AiM), announced an agreement with Ford Motor Credit Company to assume nationwide responsibility to conduct lease-end inspections of vehicles financed through Ford Credit. Ford Credit employees previously handled this function.

“We are very pleased that Ford Credit has selected AiM,” said Jim Yates, president & CEO, AiM. “They align nicely with our existing business and give us the unique opportunity to add experienced employees who will make AiM stronger for all of our clients.”

Ford Credit’s employees will be merged into the overall AiM workforce along with the culture they’ll bring from their Ford experience. AiM management believes both groups can learn from each other and make the combined workforce smarter, more efficient and more capable.

“Our vision for AiM is to be an industry-wide partnership that allows all of our customers and partners to better manage their portfolios as positive contributors to bottom line profits,” said Yates.

AiM has conducted more than 50-million vehicle inspections since it was founded in 2005. It brings an OEM’s financial perspective and customer focus to its growing list of automotive, transportation and financial clients and has modernized the inspection industry with cutting edge technology that delivers consistent process-driven results.

In addition to off-lease inspections, FMCC also is outsourcing its dealership floorplan audits to AiM.
