Parts inventory and customer repairs will be quicker thanks to Navistar's decision to implement OEConnection's supply chain and intelligence tools, the truck OEM said.
OEConnection's online parts sourcing and idle inventory reduction tools will help Navistar's 280 International North American dealerships shorten part-cycle times by allowing them to view each others' stock in real time and pull the necessary parts from the supply chain as needed, reducing back orders.
"Accessing and using the parts our dealers have on hand benefits everyone in our dealer network," said Rommel Miranda, vp-sales and marketing, Navistar Parts. "OEConnection's comprehensive tools will help reduce the time it takes us to fulfill backordered parts requests and increase vehicle uptime for our customers."
