About DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand

Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT) is an international company operating within the automotive industry. In accordance with its mandate, it collects and prepares comprehensive vehicle data and provides the sector with cost-effective, nationwide access to it via the SilverDAT® System. DAT sees itself as a neutral intermediary between all the stakeholders in the automotive industry. Ever since 1931 it has been funded by its three partners: the VDA (Association of the German Automotive Industry), the VDIK (Association of International Motor Vehicle Manufacturers) and the ZDK (German Federation for Motor Trades and Repairs). This structure gives DAT a unique status and a special mandate within the automotive industry. In addition to providing a nationwide network of automotive experts in Germany, DAT’s main tasks are to observe the market and document technical data for all makes of vehicles and to augment this with additional relevant facts. This know-how is consolidated in the SilverDAT® software, which offers its users numerous options for the digitisation of their processes. This includes e.g. precise vehicle identification via VIN queries (Vehicle Identification Number), repair-cost calculations, used-car valuations, key-data analyses and residual-value forecasts. Hire-car costs and compensation for loss of use can also be automatically calculated where necessary. Process-oriented online claims-management systems facilitate paperless communication between all parties involved in a claim and allows them to process digital claims files. DAT leverages its immensely valuable collection of data to develop new products and services, such as the analysis of vehicle groups by their equipment levels and the combination with other equipment features. The DAT Group is represented in numerous international markets by its subsidiaries and holding companies. DAT Imprint: http://www.dat.de/en/company/imprint.html
