Parts Cost Trends at the VMRS System Level
Manage episode 422788463 series 2813380
Episode 322: Tracking parts cost trends is vital in the heavy-duty parts industry. The last 6 months of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024 were flat or even down for many heavy-duty parts companies as the freight recession affected the industry. Encouragingly, there seems to be an uptick in activity over April and May which gives us hope of better months ahead.
Our featured guests are Dick Hyatt, CEO and President, and Nick Pittinger, Director of Data Services, at Decisiv. They discuss the need for accurate data about parts costs, especially at the VMRS level, and compile reports on this data to help the rest of the industry better understand the trends.
