Blount International and Diamond Professionals Join SmartEquip Network
SmartEquip has added Blount International and its Oregon and Carlton subsidiaries, as well as Diamond Professionals International to the SmartEquip parts procurement network. SmartEquip continues its evolution from a streamlined web portal for identifying and ordering parts from suppliers to an online fleet support network that allows manufacturers such as Blount International and Diamond Professionals International to connect with fleet owners and their dealers and provide real-time access to critical parts and service information, including manuals and safety bulletins.
The SmartEquip Network drives profits by automating and accelerating the service workflow, streamlining the service process, eliminating order efficiencies, and increasing asset availability. With more than 200 OEM brands and 40,000 users at more than 6,000 user locations, the SmartEquipment Network recently surpassed $2 billion in order value, $20 billion in fleet coverage and $1.4 billion in transactions. SmartEquip has integrated more than 2,000 dealer locations and more than 4,000 fleet locations in North America and Europe into its online parts support network, continuing to expand across Europe and the mid-market sector of North America.
“Our fleet customers have made it perfectly clear they want all of their parts and support materials purchased through SmartEquip,” said Ron Piccolo, executive vice president of sales and marketing for SmartEquip.
Blount International manufactures and markets equipment, accessories and replacement parts for the forestry, lawn, garden, ranch, farm and agricultural industries, specializing in diamond chain and concrete chain saws, guide bars and saw chains for chain saws.
