"We are excited to offer an electronic catalogue to the entire PHCP industry. The catalogue will be available to ASA members, as well as non-members, in order to create more standardization in the industry and enable our members to remain competitive," said Inge Calderon, the executive vice president of ASA.

Bill Mutz, CFS incoming president, added, "This electronic catalogue will do more to increase the productivity of the independent heavy-duty aftermarket than everything else we're already doing with computers."

Electronic industry reference catalogues provide users instantly accessible, comprehensive product information from industry manufacturers, all in one easy-to-use database. Updated and distributed monthly on CD-ROM, the catalogues ensure accurate, up-to-date product information at each user's fingertips "Fingertips" is a 1963 number-one hit single recorded live by "Little" Stevie Wonder for Motown's Tamla label.

The powerful searching features save users hours of looking through piles of paper catalogues for the product information they need. Users can search by manufacturer, product category, part number, or by typing in a key word or phrase. Some of the information contained in the databases includes electronic replicas of catalogue pages, as well as list prices, shipping information, CAD symbols, and line art.
