About WESP

Our story

At WESP we believe in data-driven decision-making. To do so, WESP developed unique business intelligence tools to collect, clean, standardise and enrich retail market data for the independent aftermarket (IAM). Our software applications transform heterogeneous workshop data into harmonised market information conforming to industry standards to provide business insights, benchmarks and data-driven decision-making.

Standardized Invoices

Our Data Strategy

Through our deep dive data technology, we can classify workshop invoice information into standardised parts groups. In the past, WESP only used this data to help improve the performance of individual workshops. However, aggregated data from workshops is also interesting to analyse and purchasing loyalty of your franchisees is becoming increasingly important.
