OptiCat announced
that Uni-Select, a leading North American warehouse distributor of
automotive aftermarket parts has become an OptiCat Strategic Data
Partner.
Under the agreement, OptiCat will provide data directly
from its Do-it-Once data repository for and on behalf of OptiCat data
suppliers (manufacturers). Uni-Select joins other key North American
distributors working through OptiCat to provide a single-source of auto
parts information provided by a cooperative effort of manufacturers.
“Uni-Select
believes a coordinated effort by manufacturers to deliver validated and
complete data from a single-source makes tremendous sense,” said Brent
Windom, vice president of North American marketing and product
management for Uni-Select.
“We are committed to supporting our
vendors’ efforts to simplify and improve the data production and
distribution process through OptiCat.”
