In this bonus Fixed Ops Roundtable panel, Angie, Kaylee Felio of PartsEdge, and Mike Weldon of Center for Performance Institute discuss the latest developments in parts management and why data, efficiency, and collaboration are becoming increasingly important to dealership success. The conversation focuses on the challenges parts managers face today, including inventory health, obsolescence, changing ordering processes, and the pressure to do more with less. Kaylee also shares how PartsEdge is helping dealerships better understand their inventory through new reporting tools, inventory analysis, educational webinars, and resources designed to help parts managers make better decisions. In this episode, you'll hear about: What's new at PartsEdge and its updated inventory reporting options The growing popularity of Parts Edge's monthly webinars How dealerships can use data to better understand inventory health Why inventory problems can quietly grow into major dealership issues What "doing more with less" really means for parts departments The panel also discusses how PartsEdge works with dealerships at different stages—from stores dealing with serious inventory problems to parts managers who simply want to take their department to the next level. One of the biggest takeaways is that parts and service cannot operate in silos. When the two departments understand how their performance affects one another, they can work together to drive greater profitability and efficiency across the dealership.
