The AAIA Electronic Catalog Standard has been enhanced to better meet the needs of all aftermarket manufacturers and their business partners, including virtually all of the major electronic catalog suppliers. The Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association (AAIA) has published a new suite of tools that aftermarket companies can use to code and exchange application catalog and other vehicle-driven data.

Since there may be questions about the new standard and what it means to companies that support it, AAIA has announced the Electronic Catalog Standard Users' Congress at AAPEX. Besides presentations from the association, representatives from leading e-catalogue companies will speak about their plans and commitments relative to the new AAIA standard. The event, set for Nov 3, 2003, from 9 am to noon, will be held at the Sands Expo Center, Rooms 201-203, in Las Vegas NV. The event is free to attend, but registration is required.
