Company to introduce next-generation parts catalog, B2B eCommerce platform, and predictive analytics solutions for aftermarket parts and service businesses
Epicor, a global leader of industry-specific enterprise software designed to promote business growth, will introduce during next week’s AAPEX 2023 Show in Las Vegas several innovative solutions designed to help automotive businesses capture the “Insight Advantage” powered by the company’s vast set of vehicle, part, and service information and cutting-edge data science capabilities.
The Epicor exhibit (A2238) will feature live demonstrations of the next-generation, cloud-based Epicor Catalog for Automotive and Epicor Commerce for Automotive B2B eStore, and two advanced data analytics solutions that enable automotive professionals to predict and address future demand for parts and services.
“These new solutions are made possible through our nearly 40-year investment in building the automotive aftermarket’s premier product content engine and connected data network,” said Tim Hardin, Epicor Senior Vice President of Global Auto, Data, and Extend Services. “Together, these and a broad range of other Epicor solutions provide a unique ‘Insight Advantage’ that helps our automotive partners accelerate growth, increase business value, and deliver a consistently superior customer experience.”
The Epicor automotive content engine was established in the early 1980s to support development of the company’s industry-first electronic catalog. Introduced in 1984, the Epicor Catalog today includes part, tire, and non-application data representing more than 13,800 product lines and more than 4,000 industry suppliers around the world. In conjunction with Epicor solutions connecting customers at every level of the aftermarket value chain, this data enables visibility into more than 750 million part-inventory snapshots per day, more than 1 billion individual part transactions per year, and approximately 140 million vehicle repair events per year.
This rich channel intelligence guides the development of Epicor next-generation business growth tools, including each of the four solutions that will debut next week in Las Vegas:
Next-Generation Epicor Catalog for Automotive
Epicor will demonstrate standalone, cloud-native electronic catalog products for customers in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. The all-Spanish-language catalog for Mexico is already in use in several locations while the U.S./Canada catalog will be available in early 2024.
Epicor Commerce for Automotive B2B eStore
Representing a comprehensive modernization of the existing Epicor B2B eStore, Epicor Commerce for Automotive is a powerful, highly flexible and user-friendly eCommerce solution that helps distributors and other users increase sales and boost customer satisfaction.
