Product Research and Development is one of the cornerstones of DFC.
However, it’s not as simple as getting parts, cataloging them and selling them. Instead, we reverse engineer every single new OE product from all OE manufacturers and collect key data points. For example, does this part differ from last year’s part? How?
There is added complexity when you consider that each OE manufacturer has a different discipline (friction, hardware, rotors, etc.)
One example is friction. At any point we may source friction parts from Germany, Thailand, India or China. Each of these manufacturers has a different focus: one may be great at higher performance materials, while another may be great at copper-free ceramics or semi-metallics. Our job is to identify these innovations and match (or exceed) the OE specifications so that when you’re using a DFC part, you know you have a premium product.
