Shopmonkey and Turn 14 Distribution will launch an integrated performance parts ordering system by early 2027. This update will allow shops to manage vehicle repairs and order components within a single platform.
Why it matters
Currently, shop teams must switch between separate platforms to manage customers and check parts availability, which adds administrative time to every repair job. The new integration aims to streamline this workflow by centralizing search, pricing, and tracking within the Shopmonkey software.
The platform serves over 10,000 independent shops across North America. The integration will be included in all Shopmonkey subscription plans at no extra cost, though the current software remains in the alpha stage.
The players
Shopmonkey
A provider of shop management software that coordinates workflow, scheduling, and customer communication for over 10,000 independent automotive repair facilities.
Turn 14 Distribution
An automotive parts distributor known for supplying performance aftermarket components to the repair and custom vehicle industry.
The details
The new system allows shop personnel to search for parts in the Shopmonkey interface using criteria like brand, year, make, model, category, or part number. Once a part is ordered, all invoice details and tracking updates flow directly into the Shopmonkey software. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and cross-referencing between the shop management platform and external parts distribution sites.
Timeline
November 2026: Shopmonkey demonstrates the integration alpha at SEMA 2026.
Early 2027: Full integration release scheduled for Shopmonkey customers.
The Home Front
The automotive repair industry is increasingly shifting toward unified software ecosystems to handle procurement and service scheduling. This integration marks a continued trend of digitizing manual supply chain tasks to reduce overhead for independent auto shops.
If you manage a vehicle fleet or frequently use independent repair shops, keep an eye on your service invoices for faster, more accurate parts status updates starting in 2027. This integration should theoretically reduce the time your car sits in the bay while the shop confirms parts availability.
The takeaway
Automotive repair shops will soon benefit from a unified ordering system that reduces manual inventory checks. Owners of vehicles in service can expect faster communication regarding parts arrivals as shops integrate their management software with distributors like Turn 14 Distribution by early 2027.
What happens next
Shopmonkey will host a demonstration of the integration alpha at SEMA 2026 in November 2026 at booth #11639, while Turn 14 Distribution will be featured at booths #21403 and #82000.
