Automotive manufacturers and suppliers needed better control over parts discovery, channel sales and repair-center fulfillment. Complementary platforms connected VIN-based parts lookup and visual catalogs with manufacturers, distributors, inventory, pricing, delivery options and existing ERP systems.

Challenge

01

Dealers and repair centers needed to identify compatible parts accurately from VINs, vehicle attributes, descriptions or visual assemblies.

02

The supplier needed product-level control across manufacturers and distributors while maintaining a dependable sales channel.

03

Search results had to balance price, distance and delivery time while integrating with existing ERP and dealer systems.

Solution

Delivered an integrated automotive parts ecosystem combining VIN-driven catalog search, visual parts navigation, inventory and pricing management, channel-controlled commerce, location-aware fulfillment and ERP/DMS integration.
