Keeping a part in stock is just the start. Getting it out the door in time for the next delivery is what counts. For distributors and parts suppliers, customer service depends on how well the warehouse runs: accurate stock records, efficient picking and the flexibility to prioritise urgent orders without holding up the rest.<\/p>\n\n

These are the challenges we look forward to discussing at Parts Aftermarket Congress 2026<\/strong>, taking place on November 24\u201325 at the A.Roma Lifestyle Hotel in Rome<\/strong>. ICAM is returning as a sponsor of the automotive aftermarket event to meet industry professionals, hear what matters most to the market and explore how automation can improve spare parts logistics.<\/p>\n\n

Meeting parts warehouse needs with aftermarket expertise<\/h2>\n\n

With extensive product ranges, parts of varying sizes and a mix of fast- and slow-moving items, every parts warehouse needs to balance storage capacity, ease of access and order fulfilment speed. Physical stock must also stay in sync with the inventory shown in business management systems and on B2B e-commerce platforms.<\/p>\n\n

We have been helping businesses across the sector address these challenges for years. Alberto Drusi<\/strong>, a specialist distributor of engine components for the automotive aftermarket, chose nine SILO\u00b2 Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) to store more than 30,000 SKUs within 200 m\u00b2 and handle urgent orders quickly and accurately. Sirmec<\/strong>, a distributor of genuine Stellantis parts, installed six SILO\u00b2 VLMs, integrating automated storage with its WMS and B2B e-commerce platform.<\/p>\n\n

These projects highlight the importance of designing automation around day-to-day workflows: the parts being handled, how often they move, how many people handle them and the delivery deadlines they need to meet.<\/p>\n\n

ICAM automated storage systems: the right solution starts with your workflow<\/h3>\n\n

ICAM automated storage systems<\/strong> support automotive parts storage and management<\/strong> with solutions tailored to the parts you handle and the way you work, picking guidance systems and software that integrates with ERP and WMS platforms. The aim is to keep parts moving smoothly, from goods receipt through order preparation to the workshop or dispatch.<\/p>\n\n

Let\u2019s talk about your priorities at Parts Aftermarket Congress 2026<\/h2>\n\n

That\u2019s why we\u2019re attending Parts Aftermarket Congress: to listen to the industry and turn the challenges businesses face into practical solutions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Whether you distribute spare parts or run a hub or warehouse supplying workshops, we look forward to discussing your workflows, bottlenecks and growth plans.<\/p>\n\n

Meet the ICAM team in Rome on November 24\u201325 to explore how our automated storage systems can help you manage parts more efficiently and deliver the service your customers expect.<\/p>\n\n
