A-Star Distributing Inc., a Washington-based body parts distributor, began in 1985 as a low-cost, high-quality alternative to the expensive OEM replacement parts. They service the Spokane area by providing their customers with new parts at affordable prices and excellent service.
As the market evolves, taking advantage of new opportunities can be challenging with older technology. A-Star Distributing felt that they could be more flexible and able to better serve their customers with a business system built with today’s technology.
“We knew that it was time to invest in new technology,” said Damon Smathers, Controller of A-Star Distributing. “We looked closely at the capabilities of Autopart and felt that it would best fit the needs of our company and help us move our business to the next level”.
Available as a traditional on-premise solution or hosted cloud solution, Autopart combines modern .NET technology with a SQL database for unparalleled functionality and flexibility in a system designed specifically for the Automotive Aftermarket. The system includes point-of-sale, inventory management, forecasting, purchasing, reporting, and accounting. A-Star will also leverage Autopart to fulfill its online listings with Internet marketplaces.
“We are excited that A-Star Distributing has decided to work with us and has selected our Autopart solution,” said Lance Brierley, General Manager of MAM Software, North America. “We are looking forward to building a strong long-term partnership with the team at A-Star, helping them to get the most out of their investment in MAM Software".
