GERMANTOWN, Tenn. – Tom Frey has been promoted to vice president of Information and Technology for the Automotive Distribution Network.
 
“Tom’s work over the years as the Network’s director of product and later, as our IT director, has enabled our members to more effectively manage their inventory and better serve their customer base,” said Mike Lambert, president of the Network. “His promotion to vice president of IT reflects his contributions as he strives to further enhance Network Intelligence, our data-warehousing tool, and such online initiatives as Network WebShop and PartShare.”

“This promotion isn’t about a title—it defines a role,” said Frey, who’s been with the Network since 2006. “Our IT services have expanded and our group has grown, so my role must become less hands-on. I’ve got to ensure my team has the tools and education required as we discover opportunities to reduce our channel costs using centralized technology solutions and continue to provide the best information and services possible to our members and manufacturer partners.”
