What is an Aftermarket PIM
While a classic PIM focuses on finished goods products, an aftermarket PIM handles the specific needs of the aftermarket parts sales and service.
An aftermarket PIM is designed to handle the complexities of parts and service information post-sale.
This specialized PIM consolidates data from various sources, including part lists, exploded views, service bulletins, and documentation, into a unified repository.
It facilitates the creation, management, and distribution of spare parts catalogues, service kits, replacement chains, and other aftermarket-related content, ensuring that field teams and customers have the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Say goodbye to information overload and hello to personalized content with Signifikant's innovative approach.
In today’s business world, information is crucial for performing tasks efficiently. However, with companies collecting and managing vast amounts of data, it’s important to provide only relevant information to users based on their role, skill level, task, and location. Consider the challenge of a service organization dealing with a broken forestry machine and needing reliable, relevant information immediately to avoid downtimes that disrupt business.
To address this issue, Signifikant has developed a three-step approach to deliver highly personalized information from content silos to case-based workflows. The approach includes consolidation, tagging, and filtering. Signifikant’s three-step approach helps companies overcome the challenges of content silos and delivers highly personalized aftermarket information to users in case-based workflows.

STEP 1
Consolidation
Information is often stored in specialized tools with different technologies, structures, and terminologies. Signifikant preserves these tools and their unique features while consolidating the data in a unified aftermarket database. This ensures that information from each tool is imported, mapped, and synchronized regularly to maintain a consistent and up-to- date data set.

STEP 2
Tagging
All information, from small text fragments to complete catalogues or information types, is tagged for multiple purposes. Tags are used to determine the machines for which the information is valid, such as serial numbers, production dates, or machine characteristics. Tags also determine which users the information is relevant to, based on their roles, language preferences, and skill levels.

STEP 3
Filtering
This is applied to ensure that only relevant information is delivered to users. Information is filtered based on the user’s role, preferred language, skill level, organization’s partnership type, agreements, subscriptions, customer’s machines, and the task at hand. This ensures that users receive information that is tailored to their specific needs, eliminating the need to browse through multiple catalogues or tools to find the relevant information.
