NORTH LIBERTY, Iowa – Fuse5, a U.S.-based provider of global business management solutions, has signed International Car Parts (ICP)/Car Parts International (CPI) of Needham, Mass., to the company’s cloud-based solution for the automotive aftermarket.
ICP and CPI are importers/distributors of foreign and domestic auto parts. The companies stock many hard-to-find European OEM parts along with a wide selection of Asian and domestic undercar parts in their 22 warehouse locations throughout the Northeast. With a focus on customer satisfaction ICP/CPI not only honor the manufacturer’s warranty, they also back that up with their own limited warranty. Their objectives are to provide their customers with the right parts and reliable on-time delivery each and every time a customer places an order. They’ve built a team of more than 60 professional salespeople, trained to provide customers with the answers and service they want and need. ICP and CPI deliver their customers’ parts with their own fleet of trucks to expedite delivery and ensure accuracy.
“This was not a quick decision; we chose Fuse5 after reviewing every other system we could find. All of the systems presented current technology but Fuse5 was the only system that proved that they were more than a revised front end with the same limitations we have endured for the last 30 years,” said Tom Taylor, controller of ICP. “I was concerned that the claims of Fuse5 would end up being the same as every previous sales pitch. We are now deep into the transition and can already see that this change is going to help us in every aspect of our business.”
Fuse5 says it continues to improve its product to meet the demand for solutions that will make independent businesses technologically relevant in an increasingly competitive environment.
“We are excited to have ICP and CPI join the Fuse5 family,” said John Bunting, COO of Fuse5. “As with all of our customers, they have unique challenges and Fuse5 is built on a platform that allows its customers to meet those specific needs. That’s the reason that Fuse5 continues to get better with every new customer.”
Fuse5 was built from the ground up using cloud technology, just like Google and Amazon. By collaborating with auto parts businesses the company says it learned to create a system in which users can easily control sell price, inventory levels, streamline POS, connect to other systems, automate reporting, purchasing, store transfers and more.
Fuse5 is a complete business management system and enterprise resource planning tool. Fuse5 allows customers to improve their inventory efficiency, forecasting, price-points, sales strategies, and more, all adding to increased profitability, according to Gabe Davis, CEO of Fuse 5. “Fuse5 was built on the concept of combining all aspects of the automotive aftermarket, from garage to manufacturers and all businesses in between. This is not possible with the limitations of legacy hardware,” said Davis. “With Fuse5, you have it all right at your fingertips, from any device that has access to the Internet. We continue to strive to offer the best most seamless business management platform possible for our customers, their customers and their suppliers.”
