Parts eCommerce
 
Software Experts .NET has developed a sophisticated, web based, "Parts eCommerce" solution for parts distributors and their respective dealership networks. This "Parts eCommerce" web solution is a system which can be branded and used in virtually any industry that involves the sale of parts (replacement parts, accessory parts, etc.).  These industries include automotive, marine, motorcycle, appliance, etc.
 
Currently, Software Experts .NET has a partnership agreement with Intercity Services to support the automotive part industry.  This web application solution is licensed to Intercity Services and is branded under the name "Athena Parts".  The licensing of this software allows Intercity Services to support multiple part catalogs for every automotive make.  Intercity Services then offers these catalogs to its dealership network thru the store front & secure checkout components (all included as part of this web application solution).

Intercity Services has a dealership network that spans the United States.  Intercity Services, acting as the parts distributor/warehouse, pre-populates various parts catalogs through the back office component of this web application solution.  These catalogs can then be assigned to select dealerships (like a subscription model) for use in their respective eCommerce store front.  Individual dealerships also utilize the back office component to manage online orders, extend part catalogs with their own custom parts (if required), update 'feature' parts lists, etc.

The "Parts eCommerce" web application solution consists of 3 major components....

  1. Back Office Component - Updating parts catalogs (with pictures), setting up feature part lists, working orders, setting up makes/models, setting up discount codes, etc.
  2. Store Front Component - Used for each dealership web presence site.  Includes feature parts (home page), part navigation tree by model and category.  Other store front standard pages include contact us, shopping cart, custom part search, subscription sign up, custom part order, friend referral, etc.
  3. Secure Checkout Component - Used for securely checking out part orders through the various dealership store fronts (utilizes SSL (128-bit) data encryption to protect financial transactions for all part orders).
Note: Screen shots listed for this section represent actual screen shots from the Intercity Services branded license of this web solution.  Individual dealership store front website graphics (header, footer... which are template based) AND the part catalog data population were created by, and are the property of, Intercity Services.
 
The "Parts eCommerce" web application solution represents a mature implementation (production environment since 2003) of the service oriented architecture and technical approach pursued by Software Experts .NET.
