Ft. Wright, Kentucky — August 5, 2014 — Car-Part.com has launched a new version of its Car-Part Pro Marketplace for the collision and mechanical repair industries.
EMS Pro, Car-Part.com’s EMS-based integration with the three estimating systems, provides one-click access to Car-Part Pro’s parts distribution network.
“Car-Part EMS Pro, in my mind, is a necessity for all damage appraisers and estimators. It seamlessly opens the search link with all required information ready to check availability and price. I have noticed that I am checking recycled parts even when I initially didn’t intend to. This makes the repair planning process quicker and more accurate,†says Garnet Young, President of Young’s Auto Body.
Online part ordering on Car-Part Pro is now available for repairers via the “Order Part†button, which provides one-click ordering from over 1,000 eCommerce-enabled part providers, a natural complement to Car-Part Pro’s real-time delivery and part availability information.
“Car-Part Pro has awesome speed at locating any kind of part. It really allows you to determine a fair price for what you are buying. We make Car-Part Pro our first choice in parts locating,†says Harry Moppert, President of Moppert Brothers.
Car-Part.com has also recently worked closely with OEConnection, the parts eCommerce technology provider for original equipment manufacturers’ (OEM) distribution networks, to integrate its services with Car-Part Pro. This integration enhances the part choices available to repairers using Car-Part Pro by providing them with the ability to order parts from their favorite OEM dealerships while maintaining a streamlined workflow. Similarly, repairers using CollisionLink can maintain their workflow when pricing and sourcing recycled parts.
“Integrating our solutions furthers our goal of improving the way the industry buys parts†said Jeff Schroder, CEO of Car-Part.com.
Car-Part Pro is also now available as a mobile application. The Car-Part Pro mobile app simplifies locating and ordering parts for repairers and re-inspectors by using a VIN barcode scanner to identify the correct interchange part numbers. The Car-Part Pro native mobile app is compatible with Apple, Android, Amazon, and BlackBerry devices.
Car-Part Pro is offered to repairers at no cost and is available for insurers and independent appraisers. Learn more about Car-Part Pro or sign up at CarPartPro.com.
