BOARD
Distributing high quality catalog data to your channel partners in near-real-time is important to your business success. Getting the data “right” before distribution and then distributing it to your partners with the highest possible speed and ease gives you the highest probability of making the sale. High quality data will end up on the parts counters and websites sooner than data with errors. OptiCat OnBoard and OnBoard Pro are web applications that help Suppliers manage their data relationships with a comprehensive and secure authorization system, validation routines that check data as well as a distribution engine that takes the pain out of getting ACES®, PIES™, Product Information and Images to data Receivers.

DEMAND
As a Data Receiver you are probably looking for one place where you can get reliable error free catalog data that will process quickly and smoothly into your cataloging system. OptiCat OnDemand is a web application that helps data Receivers manage their data relationships with a comprehensive and secure authorization system. Data is validated against Industry XSD rules as well as other routines that check data quality. There is also a delivery engine that takes the pain out of receiving product information from Suppliers. You can even create your own data templates for Product Information delivery.

TARGET
Let’s face it, having high quality data drives your selling activity at the most fundamental level. This is where OnTarget and OnTarget Pro come-in… These are desktop software applications with capabilities that validate Supplier data, identify errors in mapping and output logic, and even identify data mapping issues with the VCdb and PCdb. OnTarget Pro will also compare current and previous ACES® files for net changes in data, such as dropped parts or vehicles. OnTarget runs on your local computer, thus enabling a local, discreet quality control function for your use on your cataloging information management system.

LINE
Success in the Automotive Aftermarket means having the right parts at the right time. OptiCat’s OnLine web catalog is designed to help customers “get it right”, by insuring that the high quality, near-real-time data being provided via the OptiCat Network is directly available at all levels of aftermarket distribution. It contains extensive auto parts data and photos that are just a click away and are provided without the delays experienced with many other web based systems. When you decide it’s time to make your parts available, they will show up in the OptiCat OnLine Catalog! It also provides an easy alternative to the traditional catalogs with powerful tools allowing multiple searches for the parts customers want to find.

We also deal with data coming from and headed to markets around the world. This broad exposure gives us a unique perspective on the range of possibilities regarding data and its productive use for your business.

Great data is used to create efficiencies and accuracies. Great data sells more parts and bad data does not, in fact it creates returns. Great data can create new customer relationships and bad data can loss them. Great data comes from great technology and great technology comes from listening to the customer's needs and thinking out of the box about what technology could do to help create better data for the customer.
