OEConnection RepairLink: RepairLink and CollisionLink
A shop orders from OEM suppliers through one online interface.
The design replaces the need to manage several supplier relationships separately. It serves the parts departments of franchised dealerships as well as independent collision and mechanical repair shops that want reliable access to original equipment parts.
RepairLink connects with DMS Connect, which links dealership management system data into the platform. The company says this helps dealers fill orders more efficiently by syncing existing DMS information.
PartsTech serves aftermarket suppliers, and RevolutionParts and SimplePart serve dealer parts ecommerce. RepairLink is aimed at the original equipment channel.
A parts manager would ask which manufacturers are available through the platform. It would ask how orders post to the DMS and how pricing and availability appear.
Returns and fill rates matter too. The category guide for parts procurement lists a neutral checklist.
Verify each integration first. Check what costs extra.
