About the IARA

The IARA was created in 2001 in response to a realization by several vehicle remarketing organizations that this multi-billion dollar per year industry had no direct representative organization. The IARA conducts two semiannual Roundtable industry meetings, one of which is in conjunction with a national remarketing conference. Further information is available at www.iaraonline.org.

The primary purpose of the IARA is to provide a forum in which members are able to maximize remarketed vehicle portfolio values. Functions include:

  • Facilitate standardization of processes within the industry.
  • Provide a medium to facilitate joint initiatives among Alliance members.
  • Develop performance measurements for the industry.
  • Provide a forum for sharing ideas, knowledge, and best practices.
  • Encourage and support member adherence to the IARA Code of Ethics.
  • Share information on legislative and regulatory issues impacting the
    remarketing industry.
  • Provide a lobbying body to address legislative issues.
  • Provide a process of continuing education focused on the support of best
    practices in the remarketing industry.
