OEC, maker of RepairLink, has acquired PartsTech, a company that connects auto repair facilities to a network of more than 225 parts and tire suppliers across 30,000 locations through its e-commerce procurement solution. Like RepairLink, PartsTech's platform provides repair shops with access to one of the industry's most connected, accurate and efficient mechanical parts procurement systems.
As the automotive aftermarket continues to evolve, this acquisition will provide the industry with an expanded network of suppliers and buyers for all part types, as well as access to special pricing and loyalty programs. Together, RepairLink and PartsTech bring industry-leading fitment information to repair facilities, streamlining workflows for quoting and ordering to boost repair efficiency. The combination now better serves their expansive network of shops across mechanical repair, collision, and refurbishment.
