We've conducted dozens of interviews with NEO|SO Members about their auto parts programs. We found that there are many common frustrations regarding how our Members buy and utilize parts to service their automobile fleets. Here are some of the things they've had to say:
- Multiple Vendors: "To get the parts we need, we buy from local garages, dealerships, NAPA and others. It's an administrative pain to deal with all these vendors, and I know we could do better, but I just don't have the time." Through NEO|SO’s program, one Member went from using 13 suppliers to just 3.
- Stocking: "Too often, we don't have that critical part that we need in stock, so we have to send one of our $30+ an hour mechanics out to find and pick up that part. In the meantime, the vehicle is off the street, and our mechanic is shopping, not working on cars." NEO|SO’s program features inventory management services to ensure that the right parts are in stock.
- Unused Inventory: "We've got money tied up in bunch of parts we don't need and will never use. Even worse, those parts are taking up valuable space in our shop." NEO|SO’s program features an unused inventory buyback option to eliminate outdated parts and free up shelf space.
- Poor Quality: "A lot of the parts we buy and install don't last as long as they should. They aren't OEM quality. The end result? It costs us more money to fix the vehicles again, and those cars spend less time on the street because they're in the shop." NEO|SO’s supplier offers OEM parts that are higher quality and longer lasting.
