Industry

Auto Parts Distributors and Wholesalers

Distributors do not buy parts, they buy coverage. A range of 1,000 varieties across 50 series lets one purchase order fill gaps in braking, engine, steering, suspension and driveline at the same time, and a minimum order of one piece means a slow reference does not have to be bought by the pallet to be listed.

Pain points

What Slows This Work Down

  • Five part families spread across five vendors, five lead times and five sets of freight
  • Minimum order quantities that force dead stock onto the shelf for slow references
  • Catalogue gaps that send customers to a competitor for one line item
  • Cross reference systems that do not talk to each other, so a Dorman or Hitachi number cannot be resolved

Requirements

What You Actually Need From a Supplier

  • One order covering brake, engine, steering, suspension and transmission parts
  • Cross referencing against Dorman, Bosch and Hitachi numbers as well as OE
  • Single piece minimum orders to test a reference before it is listed
  • Broad single-reference coverage so one part number earns its shelf space

FAQ
