The forum provides an opportunity for Dealer Groups to meet and represent the issues or challenges their members are facing to BOSS. The group will work to:
- Identify issues that need raising through the appropriate government channels and assist BOSS in procuring evidence and lobbying on dealer’s behalf.
- Feedback into the trade (via other BOSS Forums e.g., BOSS Manufacturers Forum) issues affecting dealers or identify opportunities available to dealers.
- Be alert to moral issues affecting dealers in the trade, including sharp or underhand practices, illegal or immoral activities and be a whistleblower on such practices/activities.
- Provide collaboration and communication opportunities to benchmark and compare information and knowledge.
- Help to produce positive PR for the industry so that recruitment of staff is easier for dealers.
