Beekman-Backed AutoManager Completes Acquisition of Macrosmith, Expanding Digital Document Management and Compliance Capabilities for Automotive Dealers
Mar 11, 2026 2:01 AM

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

AutoManager, a portfolio company of The Beekman Group and a leading provider of dealer management software (“DMS”) to independent automotive and RV dealerships, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Macrosmith, a provider of document management software solutions purpose-built for automotive retailers. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The acquisition of Macrosmith advances AutoManager’s vision of delivering a comprehensive, integrated software platform that supports efficient, compliant, and profitable dealership operations.

Founded in 2007 and headquartered in State College, Pennsylvania, Macrosmith provides software solutions that enable dealerships to securely digitize, store, and retrieve critical documents such as deal jackets, repair orders, invoices, and compliance records. Macrosmith’s flagship products, MacroFile and MacroScan, integrate with leading dealer management systems and third-party platforms to unify documents into a single, searchable digital deal file, helping dealers reduce manual processes, improve audit readiness, and support regulatory and OEM compliance requirements.

“Macrosmith is a compelling strategic fit for AutoManager,” said Jake Morley, Chief Executive Officer of AutoManager. “By integrating AutoManager’s dealership management suite with Macrosmith’s document management and digitization capabilities, we are delivering a more comprehensive solution that supports greater efficiency, improved compliance, and the continued digitization of dealership operations.”

Macrosmith serves hundreds of dealership rooftops across the United States, including both franchised and independent dealers. “Joining AutoManager is an exciting next chapter for Macrosmith,” said Grier Yartz, Founder and President of Macrosmith. “For nearly two decades, we have focused on helping dealers move away from paper-based processes toward secure, digital workflows. Partnering with AutoManager allows us to accelerate product innovation, reach a broader dealer audience, and deliver even greater value as part of a larger, integrated platform.”

Following the acquisition, Macrosmith will continue to operate as part of the AutoManager organization, with its solutions supported and enhanced through deeper integration across AutoManager’s product suite. Customers can expect continued investment in product development, expanded functionality, and unified experience across dealership operations.

The acquisition of Macrosmith builds on AutoManager’s recent strategic growth initiatives, including the acquisitions of AutoAp, Selly Automotive, and EverLogic, as the Company continues to expand its reach across the automotive industry and adjacent markets.
