CLEVELAND, Ohio – January 5, 2026 – With the collision market projected to grow by nearly $10B in less than a decade,
OEC continues to make significant investments in its suite of collision products and services while pursuing strategic partnerships and integrations to support the rapidly evolving industry. Backed by recently launched OEM parts and rebate programs as well as partner collaborations and product advancements, OEC enters 2026 well-positioned to increasingly extend value across the collision repair ecosystem.
Founded in 2000 to connect wholesale dealers with collision facilities and increase parts sales, OEC reached its 25th anniversary milestone last year. At the same time, the company continued to expand its parts network and programs as a core offering in support of collision repairers. As of 2025, OEC has new or extended agreements for TraxPro with the four largest consolidator MSOs, as well as 9 of the Top 10 MSOs. A strategic collision parts sourcing solution, TraxPro provides advanced business rules, centralized controls, and greater visibility across an MSO’s shop network. These extended MSO agreements underscore the growing demand for tools that deliver operational support across multiple locations while emphasizing efficiency, consistency, and compliance.

In parallel, OEC further expanded its OEM partnerships, strengthening or adding new genuine OE parts programs, which represent over 90% of the North American car parc. In 2025, OEC launched or expanded OE collision parts programs, including CollisionLink programs for Genesis, Nissan Canada, and Hyundai Canada, and a TraxCollision parts program for Mitsubishi North America. The addition of these programs extends the OEC collision parts network to 30+ manufacturer programs in the US and Canada.

Further strengthening its parts programs, OEC and the Ford Motor Company (Ford) launched the Ford Collision Rewards Program, an exclusive rebate program available through OEC’s CollisionLink and TraxCollision platforms. The rebate program rewards enrolled shops with quarterly rebates on genuine Ford parts purchases, reinforcing Ford’s commitment to supporting safe, high-quality repairs while helping shops increase profitability. The Ford Collision Rewards Program, the latest parts rebate program facilitated by OEC on behalf of the manufacturers, joins Nissan/Infiniti and other OEMs leveraging rebate programs to incentivize genuine parts ordering.
The OEC TraxCollision platform, in addition to supporting multiple genuine parts programs through ValuTrax, also increased the availability of alternative parts in 2025. In the past year, TraxCollision added new parts suppliers to the platform, including WorldPac, NAPA, and Parts Authority, as well as more efficient electronic ordering of salvage parts.
Beyond the expanded parts and rebate programs, OEC made significant enhancements to its collision repair product portfolio in 2025, helping repairers keep pace with increasing repair complexity. RepairLogic, the industry’s leading OEM research and repair planning solution, reached a major milestone this year by expanding coverage to over 92% of the North American car parc. This expansion includes the addition of Hyundai, Genesis, Kia, and Subaru Canada, giving repairers access to OEM procedures for the majority of vehicles they repair.

In the latter half of 2025, OEC advanced key platform integrations and partnerships to bring repair planning and calibration intelligence directly into existing collision repair workflows. At SEMA, OEC announced their agreement to integrate RepairLogic with the CCC ONE platform in early 2026, enabling repairers to access OEM procedures, capture required operations, and maintain documentation at key points in the estimate without toggling between systems. In addition, RepairLogic integrated the Revv ADAS calibration identification and reporting solution, streamlining the calibration and repair planning process.
“The collision industry is facing increasing complexity, from advanced vehicle technology to increased expectations around documentation and repair accuracy. Our focus is on removing friction for repairers by connecting the right data, tools, and partners so they can deliver safe, quality repairs while operating more efficiently.”
Further demonstrating the industry’s confidence in OEC and its RepairLogic solution, a leading insurance carrier partnered with OEC to provide shops in their Direct Repair Program (DRP) with access to the repair planning tool. With OEM procedures serving as a common source of truth for both the carrier and collision shops, the partnership recognizes the importance of genuine procedures and a repair planning platform that streamlines documentation sharing between stakeholders.
Additionally, in 2025, OEC formed and expanded partnerships with industry organizations, including the Collision Engineering Career Alliance (CECA). The partnership between OEC and CECA provides collision repair students and instructors with access to the RepairLogic Repair Planning Platform. Access to RepairLogic supplies educators with modern, effective software and supports students through hands-on training, practical skills, and exposure to advanced technology used and trusted by today’s repair professionals.
Through collaboration, innovation, and programs designed to connect the vehicle repair and supply industry, OEC continues to empower dealers, suppliers, OEs, repairers, insurers, and all collision industry stakeholders as they work to deliver safe, accurate, and efficient repairs to vehicle owners. In 2026, OEC will further expand its product and service offerings and strengthen its partnerships to deliver solutions that meet the challenges of an increasingly complex collision repair ecosystem.
