Parts iQ and Autoflex: A Powerful Integration for Smarter Parts Procurement

The daily reality of running an independent automotive workshop requires speed, visibility, and smart decision-making. That is why we are proud to announce that Parts iQ now offers an open API integration with Autoflex, one of the most widely used Garage Management Systems (GMS) in the Netherlands. This makes it even easier to search for, compare, and order parts as an extension of your trusted working environment.

Why Autoflex?
The decision to integrate with Autoflex was not made by chance. Based on our own experience with Autoflex, we know how powerful the platform is in day-to-day operations. Autoflex is an independent company known for its strong market position, extensive functionality, user-friendly workflows, and service-oriented back-office support. In addition, Autoflex and Parts iQ share an important similarity: both organisations operate independently and are fully focused on supporting their users. This shared vision makes this integration a logical next step.

What does this integration mean for workshops?
Thanks to the open API integration, Autoflex users can easily use Parts iQ as a complementary solution within their existing workflow. The integration is optional: you enable it whenever you want to use it, while existing supplier integrations and purchasing agreements in Autoflex remain unchanged. With Parts iQ, you can compare parts from multiple suppliers within a single environment based on:

• Price
• Delivery time
• Availability

This eliminates the need to open multiple portals or compare prices manually. With a single search, you gain instant insight into all available options, allowing you to make the right choice faster for both your customer and your workshop. Autoflex work order lines are visible within Parts iQ, and selected parts are written back directly to the work order in Autoflex with the correct sales price.

What it delivers for the workshop
For automotive businesses, the integration adds an extra layer of transparency to the existing parts procurement process. You keep your trusted suppliers and existing agreements, while Parts iQ helps you quickly identify the most attractive pricing and delivery options. This aligns with our vision of strengthening existing workflows rather than replacing them. Approximately 2,500 Autoflex users can connect Parts iQ to their existing software environment in this way.

A smarter aftermarket
The automotive aftermarket is digitising rapidly. Integration software plays an important role in this development. Parts iQ has been developed to fit seamlessly into the daily operations of garages and workshops while connecting existing systems in a smarter way. With the Autoflex integration, we are taking another step towards a more transparent and efficient parts purchasing process for independent automotive workshops.
