Integrated Parts Supply Chain
sopp+sopp customers can leverage the unique parts solutions offered by group business, Activate Parts. These include a range of packages for the provision of green, aftermarket and OEM parts.
Activate Parts also specialise in stocking parts and accessories that are fast moving or with long lead times. This ensures availability when it’s needed most and contributes to reductions in key-to-key times, parts spend and sustainability goals - with reduced carbon footprint on deliveries and green parts initiatives.
-
Together, sopp+sopp and Activate Parts have significant expertise in the use of green parts across our fleet customer base. This even includes the capability to ringfence total loss vehicles for qualifying green parts in their existing fleets.
National agreements are in place with all major green parts suppliers and the solution is fully integrated into our Claims Management System and Engineering function. This provides the ability to automatically identify green parts opportunities and has been proven to achieve significant savings against equivalent genuine parts and support sustainability initiatives.
Furthermore, the supply and installation of aftermarket parts can provide significant savings on the OEM alternative, making it a viable cost saving solution. In addition, the use of non-genuine parts can support a reduction in parts delays, by providing a Thatcham-approved viable alternative.
-
As well as green parts, Activate Parts have direct relationships with manufacturers for the supply of genuine OEM parts and can secure sopp+sopp customers favourable discounts off the MRP.
With the majority of manufacturers covered and parts for cars, vans, HGV and trailers available, fleet customers get access to a broad parts supply-chain which helps reduce parts spend and minimise parts delays with drop shipping options available to reduce lead times.

Activate parts can provide impress stock of fast moving and long lead times parts, aligned to individual fleet requirements. These parts will be delivered to the appropriate destination on a same or next day basis, providing immediate availability when needed most.
In addition, our fully managed decals process is integrated within our repair management solution, triggered through identification as part of the desktop engineering process. Activate Parts retain ownership of the process from end-end, which includes stock control and automated ‘just in time’ supply to ensure key repair milestones are met.
By leveraging the unique parts and decal solutions offered by Activate Parts, fleet customers are provided with greater opportunities to mitigate parts delays, reduce repair costs and embed greener repair initiatives across their fleet. With established lines of engagement into the repair network and integration in the estimating and repair process, parts ordering is streamlined, with orders being shipped within 24 hours.
