Strategy + Application

For decades, automotive dealers, retailers, installers and DIY mechanics have had to wrestle with six-inch-thick catalogs to locate the right part for a job. Many catalogs have been transplanted online but in a smartphone world having to go to a computer to look up a part seemed just as cumbersome.

Dayco wanted to ensure its catalog was always at the fingertips of its customers and engaged Category5 to design and create a mobile app that would do just that.

Available on both iOS and Android, the Dayco Part Finder app leverages innovative new technology that enables users at every point in the buying chain to bring up a complete list of Dayco parts for their vehicle with simple scan of its VIN number. Tapping the needed part displays options and information such as needed specs, routing instructions, links to installation videos, and more.
