Why Sourcing Parts Slows You Down
Most workshops lose hours chasing parts, calling suppliers, comparing options, and second-guessing availability. It’s unbillable time, and if the wrong part turns up, you’re back to square one.
The Parts Lab exists for one reason, to keep your workshop moving. We take the search off your hands and do it properly the first time:
- We check multiple suppliers
- We compare price and availability
- We match the right spec for your job
No shortcuts. No guesswork. Just practical solutions that work.
The Parts Lab Sourcing Process
- Tell us what you need: Send through your vehicle details and the hard-to-find part you're after.
- We confirm the job: We’ll call you to confirm specs, timing, and whether you want new, used, or OEM options.
- We search everywhere: We source parts across NZ, Australia, and internationally to find the best option available, based on your requirements.
- You get options: We come back to you with clear choices: price, availability, and lead time.
- You stay moving: You get the part without losing hours chasing it yourself.
How long does it take to source a part?
It depends on the part and where it’s coming from. Local parts can often be sourced the same day, while international options may take longer. The Parts Lab will give you a clear timeframe upfront when you request a part.
