Collision Parts Competition Comes to Northern California   

New Westminster, British Columbia, October 27, 2010 — PartsCheck Live, the world’s only live, online, real time quote and bid system for the collision parts marketplace announces its Northern California launch.

Effective immediately PartsCheck will initiate service throughout a network of body shops and auto parts suppliers in the San Francisco Bay Area.

In market trials conducted earlier this year, PartsCheck proved to deliver benefits to the industry including lower parts prices, greater profit margins, significant time savings, expanded markets, and greater efficiencies when compared with existing operating procedures in the collision parts marketplace.

“We remain committed to providing a platform for true and open competition to the market,” says PartsCheck CEO Brad Desaulniers. “Our critical examination of the collision parts marketplace over the past three years of research and development has shown that we can deliver a unique set of benefits with a zero-cost, open platform that anyone can join and use connecting multiple shops and suppliers in real time. Ultimately it levels the playing field and allows participants to engage in a truly competitive market for the first time.”

According to Jeffery Patti, Regional APD Manager with AMICA and the Chair of the Collision Industry Congress (CIC) Standards Committee, “We're pleased and excited to able to be a part of the PartsCheck Live launch in California. The significant benefits this system brings will provide everybody in the industry with efficiencies and greater profitability.” AMICA earlier this year ran field trials of the PartsCheck system in Texas. “PartsCheck makes buying and selling parts easier, more cost effective and reduces cycle time,” Patti says. AMICA does not benefit directly nor does the Company receive any compensation from PartsCheck.

PartsCheck differs significantly from all other online parts procurement platforms because it delivers real-time market pricing, as opposed to list price information.

The system integrates seamlessly with major estimating engines, and does not conflict with existing shop management software.

Free to download and simple to install, PartsCheck has been developed to be extremely easy to use.
