New collaboration connects ERP data with customer conversations so distributors can see what is happening across their accounts and act faster.
(Durham, NC) — Rev Parts Management, the cloud-based ERP platform built specifically for the automotive aftermarket, and Tromml announced a new partnership designed to help distributors turn everyday business activity into clear insight for their teams.
Distributors rely on ERP systems like Rev to manage orders, inventory, accounting, and warehouse operations. These systems provide the operational backbone of the business. However, many of the signals that drive growth or reveal problems still live outside those systems — in emails, notes, and conversations between sales reps and customers.
The partnership between Rev and Tromml helps bring that information together. Tromml's Minecart platform allows sales teams to quickly capture notes from customer conversations and organize them alongside account activity pulled from Rev. Before visiting a customer, reps can review recent purchases and account trends. After a conversation, they can record what they learned and track follow-ups or potential opportunities.
Over time, this creates a clearer picture of what is happening across accounts and territories. Sales managers can see where reps are spending time, what customers are asking for, and where new opportunities may be developing.
The partnership also includes Tromml SecureAI Chat, a private AI workspace where employees can quickly search company documents, vendor information, and operational data.
"Rev provides the operational platform that distributors rely on every day," said John Bunting, CEO of Rev Parts Management. "Partnering with Tromml expands that ERP ecosystem by connecting operational data with advanced analytics that help distributors make smarter, faster business decisions."
"Sales teams learn valuable things from customers every day, but that knowledge often gets lost," said Lauren McCullough, CEO of Tromml. "Minecart helps companies capture those insights, and SecureAI Chat helps make that information easy for the whole organization to access."
The combined solution will begin rolling out to select customers later this year, with pilot opportunities available for Rev customers interested in implementing Minecart and SecureAI Chat.
Rev Parts Management provides a true cloud-based ERP platform designed for every level of the automotive aftermarket, from manufacturers to installers and everything in between. The platform helps businesses manage inventory, POS, orders, accounting, and warehouse operations while supporting organizations ranging from single locations to complex, multi-location distribution networks.
Tromml builds tools that help aftermarket companies capture and use the knowledge inside their business. Its Minecart platform helps sales teams record customer conversations and identify opportunities across their accounts. SecureAI Chat provides a private AI workspace where teams can quickly and safely search company documents, vendor information, and operational data.
