The main objective for any electronic catalog is to find a product solution inside a specific product range or brands we sell, from any reference number we are looking for. In that way, I would like to introduce a very important concept when talking about electronic catalogs, this is: Interoperability.
The interoperability measures the connectivity level that exists between a product range or brand and all the different OE/OEM/IAM reference numbers used in aftermarket.
The more level of Interoperability on an electronic catalog, the more solutions the customers will be able to find and thus more potential sales will generate.
Here we can see different levels of Interoperability we can find in the market:
Tecdoc, is only a catalogs data aggregator and the connectivity between the different data sources integrated is very low.
Then we can find some other companies specialized in creating databases, which carry out some standardization of the data to ensure that some connections between different data blocks are available and for this reason they manage to increase the level of interoperability.
Finally, we have data clustering, where all data is fully connected so we can achieve the highest possible level of interoperability and therefore solutions found.
NEO code® technology increases connectivity by +300%, increasing an average of between 20-25% the performance of any other electronic catalog. Contact us to find out how you can integrate it into your own search systems.
