Core Standard 2 - Nissan South Africa
Introduction to the Edge 2009 Programme
Attention: Dealer Principal / Franchise Director / Main Shareholder
Starting the 1st of April 2009 Nissan South Africa has introduced the EDGE 2009
Programme. This programme has replaced the EDGE 2008 programme after a 1 year period
and is designed for increased simplicity and competitiveness in the current market
environment.
The major change is that CSI no longer forms part of the EDGE Programme and is replaced
with a Core Standard relating to Customer Complaints.
How does the 2009 EDGE programme work?
The Nissan Edge Programme maintains its two main functions: inputs and outputs
as well as 4 steps, summarised as follows:
STEP 1 
Basic Franchise Standards (Inputs)
The programme consists of 2 basic franchise standards. This replaces the previous CSI PreQualification step which no longer applies. A dealership has to comply with both standards in
order to be eligible for participation in any other aspects of the programme i.e. Steps 2, 3
and 4 below.
THE 2 BASIC FRANCHISE STANDARDS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Basic Franchise Standard 1: Dealer Agreement and RVI
Basic Franchise Standard 2: Franchise Sharing and Management Capacity
1
STEP 2 
Core Standards (Inputs)
To be eligible for the 1% Core Standard payout, a dealership has to comply with all 10 core
standards.
THE 10 CORE STANDARDS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Core Standard 1: Dealer Financial Reporting
Core Standard 2: Accurate (Contactable) Customer Reporting
Core Standard 3: Customer Complaint Factor (CCF)
Core Standard 4: Dealer Management System and IT Standards
Core Standard 5: Dealer Customer Management System (DCMS)
Core Standard 6: After-Sales – Dealer Operating Standards (DOS)
Core Standard 7: Sales – Dealer Operating Standards (DOS)
Core Standard 8: After Sales Training and Certification
Core Standard 9: Sales Training and Certification
Core Standard 10: Marketing and RVI
STEP 3 
Operating Results (Outputs)
Upon achieving compliance of the Basic Franchise Standards the following operating results
will be measured to calculate the payouts:
-
All 10 Core Standards must be achieved in order to receive the 1% Core Standard
payout.
New Vehicles Sales Achieved to Target measured, as before, on a 3 month roll.
After Sales Business Plan Management programme (ASBPM).
Note: CSI and Used Vehicle Purchases no longer form part of the EDGE Programme.
2
STEP 4 
Payouts
Dealers must be compliant on both Basic Franchise Standards in order to be eligible
to receive any payouts as explained below.
Monthly Payment
Basic Franchise and Core Standards*
New Vehicle Sales Target Achievement** at 100%
New Vehicle Sales Target Achievement** at 110% +
=
=
=
1.00%
1.50%
2.00%
*Percentage of basic retail price (excluding VAT)
** % of new vehicle wholesale price x retail volume
Please note: A Consistency bonus has been included on the New Vehicle Sales Target
Achieved. Dealers that performed consistently throughout the calendar year (starting
with 2009) will be back paid for months they have not made their New Vehicle Sales
Target.
In addition,
Quarterly Payment (Calendar Quarter)
AS-BPM achievement
=
0.5% of the Parts Quarterly Purchase Value
Core Standard (Input) payments and New Vehicle Sales vs. Target/ASBPM (Output)
payments are not linked. In other words, the achievement of either is not conditional for a
payment to take place on the other.
Therefore total monthly payment of 3.00% can be achieved + 0,5% of Parts
quarterly purchases (paid quarterly).
All of the above is explained in more detail further in the document and will be effective from
1st of April 2009. Please take note that Nissan reserves the right to make any alterations to
the programme at any time in the future and will communicate changes to the dealer network
well in advance. Nissan may also decide to phase-in certain (new) aspects of the
programme and you will be informed accordingly.
Should you require any further clarity, please raise these concerns with your APM or SPM.
Alternatively you can also raise any EDGE related queries to Joey McCall-Peat (011 529
6000)
It is however important to remember that the rules and standards of the EDGE Programme
form an addendum to the main Dealer Franchise Agreement but do not in any way replace
and/or substitute any other standards as defined in the Franchise Agreement or elsewhere.

STEP 1 – BASIC FRANCHISE STANDARDS
Basic Franchise Standard 1 – Dealer Agreement and
RVI
A.
Dealer Agreement
All dealers are required to have signed and submitted to NSA the latest Dealer
Agreement available.
B.
RVI
All dealers are required to have signed and submitted to NSA a Retail Visual Identity
Agreement and implemented the accompanying architectural RVI plan accordingly.
The dealer must at all times comply with this or a later approved NSA plan.
4
Basic Franchise Standard 2 – Franchise Sharing and
Management Capacity
This standard was advised through Dealer Development bulletin DD 2007-4,
communicated on the 28th of May 2007 and Dealer Development bulletin NIS DD3
issued on 23 February 2009. For ease of reference these bulletins have been
attached to the manual (See Section 6 – Attachment A).
Kindly take note:
With further reference to the attached bulletins please note that in certain cases of
Renault franchise sharing NSA may agree by strict exception and at NSA’s and
RSA’s sole discretion, to allow certain exceptions relating to Renault. Such
exceptions must be approved in writing by the Sales/Marketing Directors of both
Companies.

STEP 2 – CORE STANDARDS
Core Standard 1 – Dealer Financial Reporting
This core standard views the financial status of a dealership and is a combination of
two items namely Audited Balance Sheet and Sewells Financial Reporting. Failing
either of the two items will result in failure of this core standard.
A. Audited Balance Sheet
All dealers are to submit an audited balance sheet to NSA Marketing Finance, within
6 months of the dealers‟ financial year-end.
B. Sewells Financial Reporting (also known as ADI or ESOS
Reporting)
The dealer must report accurate information regularly and timeously on the ESOS
information system. Dealers are to submit their monthly financial results to ESOS by
th
the 15 of each succeeding month in the required format. This will be
monitored directly by NSA on a monthly basis.
Sewells will be applying the following quality gates to check the quality of your
financial submissions: A complete list of these gates is included under Section 6 –
Attachment B.

The Trial Balance must be in balance.

The Asset Activity must be a positive figure. (Asset Activity is defined as the
ratio between the total sales and the total operating assets).

Total sales must not be negative (i.e. must be a credit balance).
6

Total gross profit must not be greater than total sales.

Total expense must not be negative (i.e. must be a debit balance).

If a figure is reported for New Vehicle Sales, these MUST also be units reported.

If a figure is reported for Used Vehicle Sales these MUST also be units reported.

Service hours sold MUST be reported.

Number of repair orders MUST be reported.

Service hours available MUST be reported.

The Rand values of the Parts Aging MUST agree in total to the Balance Sheet
value for Parts Inventory.
Failure to comply with these quality gates will in fact result in the submission
being rejected by the Sewells system and thus the result will be that the dealer
will not have reported.
Further quality gates may be added from time to time.
7
Core Standard 2 – Accurate (Contactable) New Vehicle
Sales and Service Customer
Reporting
NSA has re-introduced the Customer Quality gates as a core standard; new vehicle sales
and service customer‟s information will be measured against certain quality standards.
All dealers‟ data will be stored confidentially and will not be shared with other dealers/parties
without dealer consent.
Why do we require data to this standard?
To make contact with customers as and when necessary to promote the Nissan Brand and
this will result in customer retention and conquest. From time to time we also have a legal
obligation to inform customer of any issues that may arise.
A record that adheres to the quality gates mean that all the required fields are completed
correctly. NSA will contact each new vehicle customer. Successful contacts will be
measured.
The following table consists of the quality gates from which the dealership‟s customer
information will be collected by NSA directly off your Automate DMS system.

Core Standard 3 – CCF (Customer Complaints
Factor)
Replacing the previous CS (Customer Satisfaction) measurement, the CCF
(Customer Complaints Factor) is directed in measuring the quantity of customer
complaints received by each dealership on a monthly basis.
The detail of the standard was advised through bulletin NIS E14, take notice below
of the bulletin details:

BULLETIN NO:
NIS E14
DATE ISSUED

DATE EFFECTIVE

CONFIDENTIAL
SUBJECT
Edge 2009 – Introduction of Customer Complaints Factor (CCF) and
Discontinuation of the Customer Satisfaction Measure.
Attention:
Dealer Principals, Franchise Heads, Regional Manager, Sales Performance
Managers & Aftersales Performance Managers
Due to the severe economic environment currently experienced, Nissan South Africa (NSA),
in consultation with the Dealer Body, has decided to replace the Customer Satisfaction (CS)
measure with the CCF. We believe this new measure to be cost effective, accurate and
flexible. Current statistics indicate that more dealers achieve this criterion as compared to
the CS Overall Satisfaction measure.
The CCF process is simple. It starts when a customer logs a complaint at the Nissan Call
Centre. All dealer complaints for the month are aggregated and converted into an index,
called the CCF. Known Product and Parts related issues will be excluded from the
calculation, except in cases where the customer interaction was poor from the Dealers side.
9
Definitions:
A known Product issue is only recognised upon NSA‟s TCS Department releasing an
official communication.
A Parts issue will only be recognised upon the dealer ordering the part for the correct
application, using the correct procedure, within the proper timelines which still results in
incorrect or non-supply.
Target Score:
The CCF is a core standard and as a result compliance by a dealership is necessary in order
to receive the 1% core standard payout.
The target score is seven (7) or lower.
The CCF formula:
CCF =
Number of complaints for the month
X 100
Average monthly sales over the last 12 months
The Appeal Process
Queries are to be channelled through the respective NSA field staff (Regional Office). This
query would then be referred to the process owner for a decision.
Dealers that have lost monies due to a product problem prior to it being classified as a
„known product issue‟ can reclaim such monies provided that the following criteria has been
met at the time of the customer interaction:
A Technical Report (TR) has been raised
All technicians have been trained to the prevailing requirement
In possession of prescribed diagnostic equipment
In possession of the required special tools.
If the dealer is not satisfied with the outcome of the appeal, it then gets referred to the Edge
Committee, which convenes on a quarterly basis, for a decision.
The Motor Industry Ombudsman (MIO) will be the final arbiter. All costs associated with
regard to consulting the MIO will be borne by the party that loses the appeal.
Discontinuation of the CS Measure
The CS measure will remain effective until the end of March 2009. From the 1st of April 2009
the CCF measure will become effective.
NSA‟s CS department closes down at the end of March 2009. However, queries raised with
NSA will still be attended to until the 20th of April 2009.
We trust that the Nissan Dealer network afford the same high level of commitment on the
CCF as was afforded to the CS measure and thereby reap the associated benefits.

Core Standard 4 – Dealer Management System and
IT Standards
Dealer Management System
The only DMS approved by NSA is Automate. As was advised with the previous
Edge programmes, dealerships using the Kerridge or McCarthy Dealer Management
System would have had to provide Nissan South Africa with a firm commitment by
the end of 2007 to have Automate installed by the end of 2009. Other dealerships
would have had to comply fully with this standard by the end of 2007.
For installation and future operational purposes, the dealerships would also be
assessed on the following IT standards:
Software Standard
Dealer workstations require the following software installed:
-
Windows XP or later version

software tool to assist in marketing and managing prospects and existing clients.
All medium, large and mega category dealerships must now have a DCMS installed
and operational.
To view all approved suppliers, please refer to the DCMS bulletin attached to the
manual (see Section 6 – Attachment D). However, please note that NSA reserves
the right to reassess these suppliers from time to time. Any changes to the status of

Core Standard 8 – After-Sales Training and
Certification
Various areas within departments of the dealership will be measured as part of AfterSales Training and Certification; each area will be measured on manpower capacity
and certification.
Capacity is defined as the quantity of people required to operate within a dealership.
Manpower Capacity requirements are calculated on the amount of Repair Orders
(RO), also known as jobcards, a dealership completes on average each day. All
jobcards completed by a Nissan dealership on a daily basis, irrespective of jobcard
type (warranty, PDI, Internal, Cash or Credit) or manufacturer (Nissan, Ford, Fiat,
etc.) are used to calculate the daily average. The RO average will be captured by
NSA staff; the information captured will be collected from the eSOS system (Sewells
Financial Reporting) and would be verified from the dealerships management system
(Automate, etc.).
Certification measurement clarifies the training completed by the individuals within
the department. Completed training is measured on a course test result of 80
percent or better.
What will be measured?
Dealerships need to view After-Sales Capacity and Certification matrix attached to this
manual (see Section 6 – Attachment E) to view requirements.
How does the After-Sales Capacity and Certification matrix work?
Looking at the matrix screenprint below you need to use the following steps to understand
the matrix properly:
STEP 1
-
First identify the daily average of repair orders achieved by the dealership in
the previous quarter. Identify this value in the first column of the matrix. In
the screenprint example below the value 68 was identified as the daily
average of repair orders achieved by the dealership in the previous quarter.
All the values in the same row will be capacity or departmental certification
requirements.
STEP 2
-
All the columns marked in green are the dealerships manpower capacity
requirements. In other words, how many people do I need in a specific
department? Looking at the example of 68 repair orders, the dealership
would require 1 Warranty Claims Clerk.
18
STEP 3
-
All the columns marked in blue is the dealerships certification requirements.
In other words, how many people do I need in a specific department to be
certified on a specific course? Looking at the example of 68 repair orders per
day, the dealership would require 13 Productive Staff to be certified on the
N-Step 1 PL03 course.
What other information is important to remember?
-
As with the previous EDGE programme, the dealership gets measured on
departmental certification. Even though this could suggest that not all your staff
have to be certified, we would always recommend you certify your full compliment of
staff in case of staff turnover problems.
-
Some concessions have been introduced to assist performing dealerships and new
employees.
o
Service Department - If a dealership achieved their ASBPM Target for the
previous two quarters the manpower capacity will not be measured; therefore
no dedicated Service Manager required. The certification could then also be
completed by a Parts or After-Sales Manager. See page 27 for further detail
on ASBPM requirements.
o
Parts Department - If a dealership achieved their ASBPM Target for the
previous two quarters the manpower capacity will not be measured; therefore
no dedicated Parts Manager required. The certification could then also be
completed by a Service or After-Sales Manager. See page 27 for further
detail on ASBPM requirements.
19
o
Service Manager, Parts Manager, Service Advisor and Warranty Claims Clerk
Certification - Should a dealership achieve less than 15 Repair Orders per
day, any staff member at the dealership has to complete the relevant course
in these departments. Technical training still has to be completed by the
Productive staff within the After-Sales Department. Productive staff includes
the Technicians, RSA‟s, Apprentices and Workshop Foreman jobtitles.
o
New employees receive a 90 day period to complete the required training.
20
Core Standard 9 - Sales Training and Certification
Various areas within the dealership will be measured as part of Sales Training and
Certification; each area will be measured on manpower capacity and certification.
Capacity is defined as the quantity of people required to operate within a dealership.
Manpower Capacity requirements has been calculated using the dealerships
previous 2 quarters of New Vehicle Sales targets.
Certification measurement clarifies the training completed by the individuals within
the department. Completed training is measured on a course test result of 80
percent or better.
What will be measured?
Dealerships need to view Sales Capacity and Certification matrix attached to this manual
(see Section 6 – Attachment F) to view requirements.
How does the Sales Capacity and Certification matrix work?
Looking at the matrix screenprint below you need to use the following steps to understand
the matrix properly:
STEP 1
-
First identify the monthly New Vehicle Sales targets required by the
dealership in the previous two quarters. Identify this value in the first column
of the matrix. In the screenprint example below the value 16 was identified
as the monthly New Vehicle Sales Target required by the dealership in the
previous two quarters. All the values in the same row will be capacity or
departmental certification requirements. The Used Vehicle Sales Target is
calculated in relation to the New Vehicle Sales Target.
STEP 2
-
All the columns marked in green are the dealerships manpower capacity
requirements. In other words, how many people do I need in a specific
department? Looking at the example of 16 New Vehicle Sales Targeted, the
dealership would require 3 New Sales Consultants and 2 Used Sales
Consultants.
STEP 3
-
All the columns marked in blue are the dealerships certification
requirements. In other words, how many people do I need in a specific
department to be certified on a specific course? Looking at the example of
16 New Vehicle Sales Targeted, the dealership would require 1 New Sales
Consultant certified on the 350Z model.
21
What other information is important to remember?
-
The dealership gets measured on departmental certification. Even though this
could suggest that not all your staff have to be certified, we would always
recommend you certify your full compliment of staff in case of staff turnover
problems.
-
Some concessions have been introduced to assist performing dealerships and new
employees.
o
New and Used Vehicle Sales Managers - If a dealership achieved their New
Vehicle Sales Target for the previous two quarters the manpower capacity will
not be measured.
o
New Sales Consultants - If a dealership achieved their New Vehicle Sales
Target for the previous two quarters the manpower capacity will not be
measured.
o
Used Sales Consultants - If a dealership achieved their Used Vehicle Sales
Target for the previous two quarters the manpower capacity will not be
measured.
o
New employees receive a 90 day period to complete the required training.
22

STEP 3 – OPERATING RESULTS
The following is the basis on which monthly and quarterly payouts will be made
providing you have achieved both Basic Franchise Standards.
DEFINITIONS
% PAYOUT for the 1%
based on the Core Standards
achievement
Percentage of the basic retail price (i.e.
recommended retail price, exclusive of VAT) of
all vehicles retailed by you during the 3-month
rolling average period.
% PAYOUT for achieving
Percentage of accumulated basic wholesale
value of all new vehicles retailed by you during
the relevant period of assessment. Please
note again that Sales to Target will be
assessed and paid out on a monthly basis (3month roll). After-sales achievement will be
paid out on a calendar quarter basis.
NOTE:
Direct NSA sales to government or rental
companies delivered by you on NSA’s behalf
will not qualify and by definition cannot be
reported by you as retail sales. Bulk deliveries
where NSA has contributed beyond normal
fleet policy will not qualify for payout, but their
sales will count towards target achievement.
NEW VEHICLE SALES TARGET
The dealership’s target is calculated and
issued by NSA. Actual sales are all valid new
vehicles sold by your dealership / branch and
correctly reported on the SAP system which
was registered during the NSA retail reporting
period. The figures are calculated on a 3
month rolling figure. (Explanations of a 3
month rolling measurement can be found
on page 28)
NOTE:
Please keep copies of valid registration
documents for 12 months for audit purposes.
AS-BPM

EXPLANATION OF AS-BPM MEASUREMENT
The objective of AS-BPM is to help dealers achieve some very basic workshop
targets such as facility requirements, manpower capacity and staff efficiency. It will
also assist management to keep their monthly performance on track.
The six (6) measurables for all of AS-BPM for Edge pay-out: Mega, Large and
Medium dealers must achieve 4 out of 6 measurables of which No3 and No5 is
mandatory (all or nothing approach).
Small and Very Small Dealers must only achieve No3 and No5 which is mandatory

NSA has introduced an Annual Consistency New Vehicle Sales vs. Target bonus.
Should a dealership achieve both the two conditions below, they will receive the New
Sales vs. Target (1.5%) payout for any unpaid months during the past calendar year
(starting with 2009).
Condition 1:
The dealership achieves New Vehicle Sales vs. Target in 9 out of 12 months in the
calendar year (starting with 2009).
Condition 2:
The dealership achieved 100%+ New Vehicle Sales vs. Target in the full calendar
year (starting with 2009).
Urgent Notes on Payouts – PLEASE READ!!
1. A dealership has to achieve the Basic Franchise Standards to be eligible for
any payouts. Payouts will take place once compliance is achieved.
29
2. Should any Core Standard become non-compliant, you will be advised and
requested in writing to become compliant by the end of the month following
the written notice.
-
Should you become compliant within the specified period, you will be
paid and no penalty will occur.
Should you not become compliant within the specified period, you will
be excluded from the 1% Core Standard payout until compliant.
3. Core Standard (Input) payments and Sales vs. Target/ASBPM (Output)
payments are not linked. In other words, the achievement of either is not
conditional for a payment to take place on the other.
Achievement of AS-BPM targets will result in quarterly payouts of 0.5% of Parts
Purchases (PLTB only) through NSA

AND
GROUP
HEADS TO
The very important bulletin - see attachment, which we sent out in May 2007 STANDARDS FOR APPROVED FRANCHISE SHARING and which also forms
Attachment C of the latest Edge Manual, refers.
We want to draw your particular attention to the section on DEALER MANAGMENT
STANDARDS on the 2nd page. You will see that NSA specifies very clearly that in the
case of Mega, Large and Medium dealerships, your key management appointments need
to be pre-approved by NSA. Dealer Principal (DP) appointments need to be pre-approved
by NSA's head office (GM's Sales and After-Sales) as well as NSA Regional
Management. Departmental appointments need to be pre-approved by NSA's Regional
Management.
The reasons for this are self explanatory and are there to protect not only you but also
the best interests of the franchise. Please note that the contents of the attached bulletin
are the entire basis for compliance of Core Standard 4 of the Nissan Edge program.
Should you make such management appointments without NSA's prior approval, please
understand that you are at risk of not only losing 1% on Edge, but you will be in breach of
all relevant clauses in the dealer agreement which refer to compliance with NSA's
standards, Consequently, NSA may request that you dismiss and/or reassign any
individual appointed without NSA’s proper pre-approval.
This is simply a situation with all the associated costs and unpleasantness that should
please be avoided.

BULLETIN
DD 2007-04
SUBJECT: REVISED STANDARDS FOR FRANCHISE SHARING
DATE:
28 May 2007
Attention:
Franchise Heads
Dealer Principals
Nissan SA Regional Offices
URGENT AND IMPORTANT
NSA has allowed controlled franchise sharing with RENAULT SA (RSA) and FASA in the past.
From now on such franchise sharing approvals will only be granted with our global alliance partner
RSA. Such cases will be limited to those where mutual opportunities may still exist now or in the
future.
The reason for these important changes also relate to NSA’s investments in forthcoming new
product platforms (notably X11J) which compete directly into the mainstream of the high volume
B –Segment of the Passenger Market.
RENAULT
Where sharing with Renault has been approved in writing by NSA (Dealer Development
Department) and RSA, all facility plans must be pre-approved by NSA’s Dealer Development
Department prior to any building/building alterations taking place. The standard is full separation
(completely separate facility) for all Mega, Large and Medium dealers. For Small and Very Small
dealers, shared after-sales may be allowed in certain cases. But in all cases, the showrooms will
have to be completely separated with a solid brick wall structure with an air gap or separate
building. Exceptions to the air gap / separate sales facility rule for small and very small dealers
may be allowed at NSA’s discretion, provided that the building design meets NSA’s capacity and
RVI criteria.
In cases where Greenfield projects were approved by NSA and constructed accordingly over the
past 3 years, the above will not apply as long as NSA’s capacity requirements and targets are
being met.
-1-
FASA AND/OR ANY OTHER FRANCHISE
The standard for FASA sharing now becomes exactly the same as with any other franchise.
A COMPLETELY separate facility (with an air gap) is a fundamental core franchise standard.
Architectural/RVI plans for such facilities showing relationship and proximity to the Nissan facility
must ALWAYS be pre-approved by NSA’s Dealer Development Department in writing. Compliance
to this standard needs to be in place and operational immediately in all metropolitan (urban) areas
as discussed with you by NSA and/or FASA and already implemented in most cases. Any
remaining sharing in metropolitan (urban) areas which is non-compliant to the above should have
ceased some time ago and must immediately become compliant.
In all other areas, operational compliance is required by end-June, 2008. An architectural/RVI
separation concept plan needs to be approved by NSA before end- September, 2007.
Greenfield projects approved by NSA and completed in the past three years will automatically
comply as long as NSA’s capacity requirements and targets are being met.
DEALER MANAGEMENT STANDARDS
Irrespective of your current facility status, in cases where Renault sharing has been approved, or
where any other franchise exists anywhere under your control or ownership or where previously
approved FASA sharing still exists and is being phased out as per above, the following applies with
immediate effect :
1. Mega, Large and Medium Nissan Dealer.
The Nissan franchise must have a dedicated DP who is approved by NSA’s head office
(GM Sales Operations and GM After-Sales Operations) as well as Sales and After-Sales
Regional Managers. In addition, completely dedicated heads for each and every
department (who must each be approved by NSA’s relevant Regional Management) who
report to the dedicated DP only. Such approvals are required with dealership management
changes on an ongoing basis. “Dedicated” means that the appointed individual may not in
any way be involved at any time with any other franchise or business of any nature.
In the case of Medium Dealers, where the main shareholder fulfils the role of DP, NSA may
allow his/her involvement in another business as long as such business involvement is not
another motor vehicle franchise and is not deemed by NSA to be taking up the DP’s
management capacity in a manner which is resulting in the Nissan franchise not meeting
it’s standards and/or performance-related targets.
In this manner, it stands to reason that other than the possible exception for a medium
dealer as outlined above, no manager or staff member employed by the Nissan Franchise
entity may under any circumstances perform duties (including local or overseas trips for
launches, incentives, conferences etc.) for or on behalf of any other franchise or business
of whatever nature owned by you, your group or otherwise associated business entity. The
only exception that may be considered is that if such business can be shown to be a direct
and logical extension to the Used Vehicle capacity of the NSA franchise in the PMA
(Primary Market Area). Such outlets and their location, branding and facility plans need to
be pre-approved by NSA’s Dealer Development Department and must have their own
dedicated manager. Such manager must report only to the Nissan franchise DP and the
accounts of such operation must be consolidated into the bottom line of the Nissan
franchise entity. NSA reserves the right to request that such entity be removed entirely from
-2-
the management responsibility and accounts of the Nissan franchise entity should it deem
that such business entity is in any way preventing the Nissan entity to achieve it’s own
objectives, standards and/or capacities.
2. Small and Very Small Nissan Dealer.
Where sharing has been allowed (with RSA or FASA phase out) the DP and after-sales
manager may be common. If NSA capacity standards indicate that a new vehicle sales
manager is required, then that sales manager must be dedicated to the Nissan business.
NSA may request dedicated overall and/or departmental management at any stage, should
the capacity criteria and targets not be met. Accounting and general administrative
functions may be shared as long as such functions are not visible to customers and that
any letters, documents or other written or electronic communications to Nissan customers
comply fully with Nissan RVI standards.
Please contact us immediately if clarification is required relating to these extremely important core
franchise standards.

SUMMARY* OF DATA VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS ON
COMPULSORY INFORMATION
Communication with clientele and prospective buyers is of paramount
importance. We therefore have an urgent need to verify that the contacts are
reachable, may it be via email, postal and/or telephonically. This is the reason
why this quality gates application was developed.
The quality gates application is scheduled to run daily. Validation will take
place only if the contact’s details undergo modification since the last run of the
application.
Although our system validates all customer information from all the various
databases you will only be penalized if the compulsory information is missing
or not adhering to these standards.
The following particulars of a contact undergo validation through the aforesaid
application:
 TITLE
The title record will be regarded as non-compliant if the field is either empty or
inaccurate e.g. Mr. if it is suppose to be Mrs.
 INITIALS
Initials must contain only capital alpha characters, no other characters are
allowed. Initials should not be separated with a space, period or any other
character. Field length 4 characters
 SURNAME
Surnames should be displayed and stored in proper case; that is the first letter of
every word should be upper case and all other characters should be lower case.
The first letter after and apostrophe or hyphen minus characters should also be
upper case (e.g. O’Reilly) Note: This should display the majority of surnames
correctly, but there are some exceptions e.g. Irish surnames like McDonald
 TELEPHONE NUMBERS
Telephone numbers are landline numbers, cellular numbers or international
numbers. All telephone numbers start with a “0” and may only contain numeric
characters. Cell numbers are 10 characters long. International numbers start with
“009”. Once again dealership telephone numbers and cell numbers will not count
as a valid number.
 MODEL
See attached sheet for valid model descriptions. The “Model group” field is the
only descriptions that will be valid.
 CONTACT EMAIL ADDRESS VALIDATION
For an email address to be valid, the domain must exist and be registered with an
appropriate board. We have a table in place that holds many valid domains,
should a domain not be available in that table, connection is made to a web
service that contains all valid domains to verify the existence thereof, the domain
will then be stored in the local database table to expedite the verification process.
Sales Executives, Sales Managers, Dealer principals and dealership's e-mail
addresses will not be calculated as an accurate e-mail. All dealership domains
will be programmed to show as an invalid customer e-mail address.
VALIDATION REPORT
A consolidated validation report is made available through the SQL Server Reporting
services report which will be published to relevant subscribers (DP/Sales and Service
Managers) via email on monthly basis or on demand
Please refer to Nissan CRM System Data Standards and quality gates
report for all other non compulsory validation information.

The benefits of Capturing Accurate and Complete Customer Data.
Having both Sales & Service data correctly captured will enable a dealership to
extract enormous value by using the database for marketing purposes.
A) The most important reasons as to why Service customer data needs to be
captured correctly are:
Legal requirements:
1) With the new Consumer protection bill that will become effective in about18
months time, all dealerships will be required to forward a quotation to their
customers by e-mail. The customer must first accept this quotation before the
dealership can start working on the vehicle. No telephonic quotations/
acceptances will be legal anymore.
2) Customers have to be informed on product related recall campaigns on their
vehicles, in order to be exempt from liability.
Revenue generating areas:
3) Enables the generation of Service Reminders.
4) Ad Hoc service marketing e.g. Special service packages for vehicles who
don’t have service plan or warranty anymore could ensure that you retain
revenue that would have otherwise been lost, accessories specials that could
be directed to a specific model to generate more profit for parts etc
5) End of Warranty, Maintenance, Service plan – extensions can be offered.
B) The most important reasons as to why sales customer data needs to be
captured correctly are:
1) Ad Hoc sales marketing campaigns, customer events, loyalty programmes
2) Tools like Replacement Cycle and end of Finance contract information can be
used because you know who your customer is and you can made contact
with them to sell a new vehicle to them.
3) It enables contact with customers as and when necessary to promote the
Nissan Brand, which will enhance customer retention and conquest.
4) Increase profitability of a dealership because studies have shown that is it
much cheaper to keep a currently customer than to get a new customer.
5) Will assist in creating the 360 degree view of customer – This will enable the
dealer to know their customers better and improve their marketing strategies.

Introduction to DCMS (from here on as per previous bulletin for your ease of reference).
To ensure sustainable growth for a dealership proper management and marketing of its customer
base is essential. These products, mostly named Lead Management Systems, are responsible for
providing a tool which will allow dealerships to register all customers that make any contact with
the dealership. Through marketing to these customers, which could possibly lead to an increase in
sales, dealership management will be able to accurately measure the performance of staff and
marketing strategies.
It must be mentioned that several other manufacturers, namely BMW, Volkswagen and Toyota,
have already standardized on such systems and that it has become a dealer standard. It is
important that the Nissan dealer network remain competitive with regards to lead management and
the pro-active management of customer relationships and therefore careful consideration must be
given to the implementation of such systems at dealer level.
In order to introduce a Lead Management package to the dealer network, the Nissan dealer IT
Subcommittee have nominated a workgroup to research and acquire such a system. This group
has compiled a set of standards which suppliers must meet in order to sufficiently service the
dealer network (the project has been named the Dealer Customer Management System “DCMS”).
Not limiting the DCMS to a single supplier will avoid possible change management conflict and
introduce a competitive environment combining cost, quality, timing and support.
Subsequent to the Nissan dealer IT Subcommittee’s approval of the standards and suppliers
mentioned in this bulletin, presentation was made to National Dealer Council on 22 March 2007.
Dealer Council agreed in principle to the implementation of these systems but requested that
presentation also be made to the Small Dealer Sub-Committee (done on 18 April) and the Dealer
Sales Sub-Committee (scheduled for 22 May 2007). At this stage participation is not yet an NSA
standard but it can be stated that due to competitive pressure NSA will have no option but to
introduce such systems as franchise standards in the foreseeable future.
This bulletin serves to announce the available approved systems and their benefits to the dealer.
The negotiated system is currently for the use of the Sales department only; a rollout that includes
the After sales department is still under investigation.
DCMS overview:
The DCMS provides dealership sales staff and sales management the functionality to capture
prospective customer’s information. Once captured, the DCMS will provide the sales staff the
capability of generating an electronic OTP. This information will also then be seamlessly
transferred to the Automate management system should the customer prospect then be converted
into a sales. Dealership management will be able to measure sales staff performance, and receive
reports on sales conversion ratios and measure the related market source of the sales.
Communication strategies through e-mail, SMS and letters will enable the dealer to keep in touch
with its customer database.
Bare in mind that sever discipline will be required from dealership staff to capture and maintain the
customer records. To involve the sales staff directly to operate on the system, each staff member
would require a workstation, or at the very least a dedicated DCMS workstation. In practise it has
also been recommended to employ a dedicated person to manage a related system.

customer data onto the DCMS.
Please feel free to make contact with the suppliers directly in order get more product information.
Should you want to make use of an alternate supplier, please refer the supplier to the Dealer IT
Subcommittee for approval purposes.
Should you require additional information on the Dealer Customer Management System project,
please raise your concerns to any of the Dealer IT Subcommittee members.

SUBJECT
Nissan Edge 2009 Programme – Concession Policy for New Dealers
Attention: Dealer Principals, Franchise Heads, Regional Manager, Sales
Performance Managers & Aftersales Performance Managers
The revision to this policy will be effective from 1 April 2009. The revisions have
been made to ensure that new dealers make progressive improvements towards
Edge compliance during the concession period. They also make provision for
major relocations subject to the conditions outlined below.
Concessions already given to dealers under the previous policy and which are still
active will be administered according to the previously applicable policy.
What is a “new” dealer
a)
b)
A previous open point which has become closed
A buy/sell of an existing dealer which directly affects the line operation
of the dealership i.e. change of owner/operator. (Shareholder changes
which result in no change of dealer principal will NOT qualify in these
cases).
When does a new dealer start operations?
From the date of official dealer opening notification issued by Marketing Finance.
What is the time period of the concession?
It has been agreed that 6 months is fair and sufficient time for new dealers to
become compliant. In order to coincide with Edge core standards assessment, it
will be applicable for the next 6 forward months in the event of the official
notification being issued during a particular month. If the notification is issued on
the 1st of a month it will be applicable from that particular month going forward.
What is the nature of the concession?
Basic Franchise Standards will not be included in the concession,
therefore you will need to ensure that you constantly remain compliant
with your Basic Franchise Standards.
The 10 Core Standard pass status will be deemed to have taken place
successfully during the first six months of the concession period. For the last
month (6th), applicable monthly payments will apply under concession but the
dealer must ensure that he/she is compliant with all 10 Core Standards by the
end of the 6th month in order to continue receiving the 1% for Core Standard
achievement.
2
What about relocations?
In the event of a relocation to a Greenfield (complete new build) site and facility
fully approved by NSA, the same concession as applicable to the above will apply
but will only be for a period of 3 months.
Payment Policy
During the concession period, the 1% core standard amount will be paid to the
dealer monthly. Payments for output achievements will be made if the 3 month
roll target achievement is met.
Please note : In the event of a buy/sell resulting in the change of status, any
amounts due to the previous owner, unless NSA is advised to the contrary in
writing by both buyer and seller, will be paid to the previous owner.

Dear All
For the past few months your Valid Value Subcommittee has been reviewing the Valid Value Used
Car Program and we are now very pleased to announce that all aspects of the program going
forward have been extensively debated and agreed through this dealer subcommittee. Valid Value
is now a formal Nissan South Africa Franchise Standard and all dealerships are required to comply
with the program.
In essence, the need for peace of mind by customers in the purchase of used cars has not changed
over time and the program still retains many of its original benefits. However, some of these,
together with the processes to be followed by dealerships have been updated to ensure program
consistency and that each and every customer receives the benefits promised by a guaranteed
used car program.
It is important to note that your Valid Value Subcommittee has gone to great lengths to ensure that
the program is practical and workable. In addition every effort has been made to keep costs
reasonable. As an example, mandatory vehicle display costs are less than R10 per vehicle. This
philosophy characterizes the entire the program without detracting from its importance and value.
Valid Value is now in the process of designing all program documentation and point of sale material.
As yet the introduction date has not been set and this will depend largely on the time taken to
finalize all program materials. We are however tentatively targeting early July and are currently
considering how best to introduce the program to the dealer network.
Yours sincerely
Roel de Vries
Peter Webb
Marketing & Sales Director
Valid Value
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------VALID VALUE PROGRAM DETAILS
Valid Value will continue to be an all-makes used-car program and will not only be confined to
Nissan vehicles.
Valid Value Vehicles will be classified into 2 categories:
1. VALID VALUE „SELECT‟ VEHICLES
2. VALID VALUE „OTHER‟ VEHICLES
Any vehicle not complying with all the standards applicable to either of these categories will not be
classified as a Valid Value vehicle and may not be displayed on any Nissan dealer display area.
1. VALID VALUE SELECT
In order to be classified as a „SELECT‟ vehicle the following base criteria applies:
Vehicles must be LESS THAN 3 YEARS old
Vehicle must have no more than 100,000 KM on the odometer.
Vehicles must have a FULL SERVICE HISTORY (see definition).
1
The purpose of this is to identify these vehicles as a cut above the rest and to be able to create
marketing hype around this issue. In addition to the above base criteria, all SELECT vehicles must
conform to the requirements below.
ALL Valid Value Select Vehicles are offered with:
101-Point Quality Assurance Check.
Peace of Mind, Police and Finance Check.
Optional Roadside Assistance.
Optional 24-Month Vehicle Warranty. (Advertised prices will exclude warranty)
Nissan‟s 20 Day Exchange Policy.
Free Safety Checks.
Price and specification boards, as well as any retail advertising, must specifically indicate that these
vehicles are VALID VALUE SELECT.
2. VALID VALUE „Other Vehicles‟
Where vehicles are more than 3 years old or have more than 100,000 km on the odometer or do
not have a full service history (see definition), they can still qualify to be Valid Value vehicles,
provided they conform to the requirements below:
All “other” Valid Value vehicles are offered with:
101-Point Quality Assurance Check.
Peace of Mind, Police and Finance Check.
Optional Roadside Assistance.
Optional 24-Month Vehicle Warranty. (Advertised prices will exclude warranty)
Nissan‟s 20 Day Exchange Policy.
Free Safety Checks
Where vehicles do not conform to these requirements, they will not be classified as Valid Value
vehicles and may not be displayed on any Nissan dealer display area.
BENEFIT CLARIFICATION
101-POINT QUALITY ASSURANCE CHECK
This is a vitally important aspect and forms the cornerstone of the Valid Value Program. In order to
ensure that customers are attracted to purchase Valid Value vehicles, dealers will be required to
ensure that vehicles are refurbished to a specific Valid Value standard. Nissan recognizes that it is
impractical to make used cars „new‟ but we have an important responsibility to ensure that
customers believe Nissan is living up to the expectation created by our highly visible signage
promising “Guaranteed Used Cars”. To support this, a Valid Value Preparation Standards Manual
has been developed and all vehicles must be refurbished to these standards. This manual will be
distributed to all dealerships but in the meantime a CD will distributed and is designed to provide
you will an advanced preview of the requirements.
Upon completion of the refurbishment process, a 101- Point Check Completion Certificate must be
signed by the Sales/Service Manager and placed in Price & Spec board which is hooked onto the
vehicle window. When the sale is concluded, the Completion Certificate must be removed and
supplied to the customer and a copy placed on file for record purposes. As a more durable indicator
that the required checks have been done, a 101-Point Check Sticker must be placed in the driver‟s
side rear window.
2
FULL SERVICE HISTORY DEFINITION
All Valid Value Select vehicles must have a full service history. This means the vehicle must have
its original service book indicating that all services, as stipulated by the manufacturer, have been
completed by the manufacturer‟s appointed service outlet. If a service is completed by a nonmanufacturer‟s service outlet during the manufacturer‟s warranty, then the vehicle will not be
classified as a „Select‟ vehicle.
PEACE OF MIND POLICE AND FINANCE CHECK
This check is designed to significantly enhance the saleability of vehicles by guaranteeing that
every effort has been made to ensure the legitimacy of all Valid Value vehicles. Each vehicle must
have a TransUnion Vehicle Report which verifies the engine and chassis numbers through the
South African Police Service‟s database to confirm that the car has not been stolen. It also verifies
that there is no outstanding finance or legal claim against the vehicle. Valid Value is currently
setting up a system with TransUnion where these checks can be done via the Nissan Finance
portal at a price of R41.45 (excl. vat) per check. In the case of vehicles purchased from Nissan
Finance Remarketing or vehicles from the dealership‟s demo fleet, this vehicle report will not be
required.
NISSAN'S 20 DAY EXCHANGE POLICY
The 20 day exchange policy is essentially a marketing tool designed to give the potential customer
even greater peace of mind with regard to the possible risks involved in purchasing a used vehicle.
What‟s important to recognize is that it offers the consumer no more protection than they are
entitled to under Consumer Legislation. However, by highlighting this in advertising and
merchandising material, Nissan and its dealers gain even greater credibility in the mind of the
consumer.
OPTIONAL 24-MONTH VEHICLE WARRANTY
The Valid Value Program will indicate that all Valid Value vehicles are offered with an optional 24month warranty but it will not be necessary for dealers to include the cost in the price. All retail
adverts and marketing material will indicate “Advertised prices exclude cost of warranty”.
Nissan has negotiated two Valid Value branded warranties through the 4 main administrators of
vehicle warranties (SA Warranties, McCarthy Insurance, Motorite and Innovations Group). These
will be identical in premium, cover, fees, wording & commission structure and dealers will be able to
choose the administrator of their choice. Any existing profit-share arrangements between dealers
and warranty administrators will not be affected.
1. Valid Value “Nissan Extended Warranty”
Only Nissan Passenger and Nissan Light Commercial vehicles, petrol or diesel, qualify for this
warranty cover provided:
the vehicle has passed the mandatory 101 point Quality Assurance Check;
the vehicle has a complete Nissan service history;
the vehicle is not older than 3 years or 100,000 km;
the vehicle has not been modified from the manufacturers original specifications;
the vehicle is not operated for financial gain. I.e. Taxi, Security, Courier, etc.
This warranty is designed to incept when Nissan‟s original manufacturers warranty expires and will
extend the vehicle warranty cover for a period of 2 years or the maximum distance traveled of
200,000 km (whichever may occur first), having been recorded from the date of first registration.
3
2. Valid Value “Pre-owned Warranty”
This warranty covers all makes of Passenger, Light Commercial and 4x4 vehicles with a gross
vehicle mass of less than 3500 kg, including Nissan passenger & LCVs that do not qualify for the
Nissan-only Extended Warranty. This warranty does not cover taxis, hire vehicles, rebuilt vehicles
(code 3), modified vehicles and vehicles that are used, or have been used in any form of motoring
competition or sport. Only vehicles with a complete, up to date service record will be considered for
Plan N of this general warranty.
In terms of the FAIS Regulations the following is applicable:
Only a FAIS Certified Representative (generally the F&I) is permitted to provide advice and sell
insurance-based products, which includes vehicle warranties.
No insurance-based products may be foisted upon customers or sold conditionally.
Full details of the warranty, including premium, extent of cover, exclusions and dealer
commission must be disclosed to the customer.
Customers have the right to decline the warranty. In this event the Valid Value Program will
require the customer to sign a disclaimer indicating that he/she understands the implications.
This disclaimer will not only protect the dealership in the event the vehicle breaks down and the
customer alleges they were not informed that the vehicle had no warranty, but is a very powerful
psychological selling tool which plays on customer insecurities related to the reliability of used
vehicles.
The cost of warranties must be transparent and pricing is to be itemised on the customer invoice.
Warranty premiums may not be inflated to enhance 2nd gross and only legislated
commission/fees based on the official warranty premium is payable.
OPTIONAL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
Dealers may use any national supplier of roadside assistance, however Valid Value will offer a cobranded product with AA Fleetcare and dealers may use this product if they choose. Valid Value
has negotiated a single premium price of R137.11 excl. vat for a 12-month contract. This rate is
subject to change in the future. AA will bill NSA and in turn NSA will debit dealer sundries accounts.
Valid Value will facilitate the distribution of AA Fleetcare applications and pamphlets but the cost of
printing these will be for the dealers account. Each customer must be handed a copy of the
Roadside Assistance application and an explanatory booklet/pamphlet from the supplier. If a Valid
Value Warranty is sold to a customer, roadside assistance is included in the policy.
FREE SAFETY CHECKS
One of the key objectives of the Valid Value Program is to improve customer retention levels,
particularly in the After-Sales Department. For as long as the customer owns the vehicle, the
program requires dealers to offer free safety checks to ensure the roadworthiness of the vehicle.
Naturally, any work that is required as a result of these checks is for the customers account.
Customers may have these free checks at any Nissan Valid Value dealer.
VALID VALUE VEHICLE DISPLAY REQUIREMENTS
In terms of the definition all used vehicles displayed on Nissan used-car display areas will be Valid
Value Vehicles and must be identified as follows:
Valid Value Price & Specification Board, size A4. This is to be hooked onto in the rear driverside window. If the vehicle is a 2-door model then it must be clipped on the passenger side
window. A special MS Word document template has been developed. This will allow dealerships
to print these on an ordinary black and white printer at very low cost. It also facilitates easy
changing of price & spec details as and when required.
4
Where vehicles qualify for SELECT status the Price & Specification board must specifically
indicate that it is a „VALID VALUE SELECT” vehicle. This will form part of the template
document mentioned above.
The current large Valid Value price boards for interior windshield application and Valid Value
number plates will be entirely optional and may be ordered from Brand Unlimited through the
usual channels.
VALID VALUE DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS
The following documentation is to be completed/filed/provided to the customer with the sale of each
vehicle:
Customer Document Holder- This is a size A5 folder into which all Valid Value related
documentation must be inserted for handover to the customer.
101-Point Quality Assurance Completion Certificate – to be inserted into Customer Document
Holder.
101 Point Check / TransUnion Vehicle Report sticker – to be stuck on right hand side rear
window.
Optional Roadside Assistance application & guide/pamphlet – copies of documentation to be
inserted into Customer Document Holder.
Optional Extended Warranty policy – to be inserted into Customer Document Holder.
Valid Value Program Customer Brochure – this explains the program details and is to be
inserted into the Customer Document Holder.
VALID VALUE PROGRAM AUDITING
The Valid Value program is not intended to hide behind clever marketing but is designed to offer
customers genuine peace of mind benefits. In order to ensure that customers enjoy the full benefits
of the program, Nissan SA will perform audits to ensure:
All Valid Value vehicle branding & point of sale requirements are being adhered to.
All customer deal-files reflect that the Valid Value Program benefits have been provided to or
offered to customers.
All refurbishments required in terms of the 101-point Quality Assurance Check have been
completed.
COMPLIANCE WITH PROGRAM STANDARDS
In order to maintain the credibility and integrity of the Valid Value program it is vitally important that
each and every customer gets exactly what the program promises. Nissan Dealer Development is
currently considering a number of options, which may cover inclusion of Valid Value in the Edge
Program as a core standard, as well as specific sanctions for non-compliance with vehicle display
standards, refurbishment and program standards.
