Piston Ring turns to Activant

Piston Ring, a Canadian distributor of automotive replacement components and related products, has announced that it is implementing the Activant Eagle for the Aftermarket business management solution across its entire network of company-owned stores.

“Activant has enabled us to leapfrog outdated technologies so we can run our business more effectively. It has brought us in line with modern tools and IT initiatives,” said Piston Ring general manager Todd Toutant.

According to Toutant, the Activant Eagle solution is helping the company’s counter staff provide faster, more efficient and valuable service to customers through a point-of-sale system and Microsoft’s Windows- based user interface. The system also provides an interface with Piston Ring’s Activant A-DIS warehouse management system, enabling rapid sourcing from the company’s distribution center.
