Epicor Software Corporation, a global provider of industry-specific enterprise software to promote business growth, today announced general availability of its new PartExpert electronic catalog of automotive replacement parts for the Mexican market. The new Spanish-language eCatalog, as well as Epicor LaserCat 3 user interface, helps parts distributors, service providers, and other users to grow their businesses through quick, easy access to detailed information on millions of parts available for vehicles operated in Mexico.
Epicor also offers the LaserCat 3 interface with the optional new PartExpert GFX feature, which enhances traditional, menu-driven lookup prompts with detailed system visualizations featuring embedded part intelligence. Rather than requiring keyed prompts to drill down to a specific part, the interface allows users to more easily identify available aftermarket and original equipment parts represented within corresponding vehicle system diagrams. By clicking on the brake system visualization for a late-model import application, for example, the user will see an exploded view of all system components—rotors, calipers, brake pads, hardware, etc.—along with available original equipment (OE) and aftermarket part numbers. Clicking on a part within the exploded view automatically performs a catalog lookup on that component.
“Epicor eCatalog products are a great fit for any aftermarket business that wants to help its employees be more proficient, productive, and accurate at the point of sale,” said Stephen Gannon, senior director, automotive, product management and product development, Epicor Software. “Being able to rely on a world-class catalog is vital for businesses that want to grow their share of the replacement parts market. We are pleased to address this need for aftermarket wholesalers and other users throughout Mexico.”
