RB Global, a global marketplace for insights, services and transaction solutions for commercial assets and vehicles, has announced that its subsidiary SmartEquip has released an update to its digital parts commerce product. The new SmartEquip e-Commerce Store 2.0 platform can help dealers, fleet owners and authorized distributors set up a branded, digital parts shop.
Those businesses can then manage their inventory, product support, sales and customers in one self-serve platform.
This development in parts commerce features an overhaul of the previous user experience, while also incorporating an intuitive and dynamic admin portal – all backed by SmartEquip's catalog network. For businesses, this means providing access to relevant equipment details, including parts diagrams, during their shopping experience.
"We were able to listen to customers during the beta program and have introduced a slate of new features based on their feedback," said Matt Ackley, chief digital officer at RB Global. "This is just another example of how we are expanding the scope of our platforms to meet the needs of our customers across the industry."
"We're raising the bar with an e-commerce experience that combines speed, convenience and an intuitive user experience, while also providing a seamless integration with SmartEquip's Network of OEM's and its powerful parts catalog library in a fully branded environment," said SmartEquip CEO Fernando Pinera. "This new platform is packed with features to help dealers, fleets and distributors on the SmartEquip Network to drive increased store traffic and engage potential customers."
