Procurement Use Case
- Establishment of an accurate and efficient industry standard - by and for industry participants - to be used in the creation and industry standard implementation of electronic messaging for requests, locating, selection, and the procurement of all parts and electronic messaging for repair order processing and recording.
- XML electronic messages provide capability and flexibility for smaller-scale organizations and applications.
- Facilitates the integration of parts and material messages exchange and repair order messages exchange.
- Eliminates redundant data entry and other manual processes which allows for improved integration of parts and material purchasing information across applications.
- Management of the standard by CIECA streamlines development, approval, revision, enhancement and publication.
- An accurate and efficient parts and material procurement process and vehicle repair process.
- Improved accuracy and efficiency through an understanding and use of parts and material industry standards and vehicle repair industry standards.
- An automated export and import models for parts and material procurement using standard terms, and thus eliminating current paper based processes
- Enable repairers to reduce cycle repair time by increased accuracy and quality part availability
- This will allow repairers to gain a much better understanding and management of their parts and materials procurement process.
- Create parts and materials automated export and import models, thus eliminating current paper based assessment methodology.
- Increased access to broader range of parts by the repair facility
- Include CERs in the Repair Orders
- Include SCANs on Repair Orders

Develop standards to reduce implementation costs
Security – BMS optional aggregates allow Shops to be in control of their data and what is traded with their Service Providers
XML universal English language for computers. Tools are readily available and have a low cost.
The process will need to allow repairers, insurers, information providers, rentals providers, third party intermediaries, business management system providers, data recipients, sublet providers, and call centers to exchange repair order information.
Electronic archive of repair orders
MSO – Networks can aggregate data for Business Intelligence and reporting
Import/Export – Shop can use to change Management Systems and reduce overhead
Multi Shop Operators (MSO) move repair order from one shop to another, this standard will make the process more efficient and with less errors
