76 new driveshafts join Shaftec’s New To Range
Shaftec has added 76 new driveshafts to its New To Range collection for February.
Shaftec is thrilled to announce a significant milestone, as we have proudly achieved Premier Data Supplier Status with TecDoc. This accomplishment is a testament to our commitment to providing high-quality services to our valued customers in the motor trade.

TecDoc, developed by TecAlliance, stands as a pivotal platform that connects manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors in the automotive aftermarket. It serves as a central hub for detailed, up-to-date information on a vast array of automotive parts, facilitating seamless communication and transactions within the industry.
At Shaftec, we recognise the pivotal role that TecDoc plays in our operations. Being a Premier Data Supplier means that our catalogue data meets the stringent standards set by TecDoc and TecAlliance. We have been working closely with the Elcome team using its Xchecker Cataloguing System to achieve Premier Data Supplier status, and this achievement is a testament to our dedication to providing not just accurate, but premium-quality data to our customers.
Accurate data is the lifeblood of the automotive industry, influencing various aspects of the supply chain, so having precise information is crucial. Being a Premier Data Supplier on TecDoc’s platform means that our data aligns with the highest industry standards, enabling us to contribute to a more efficient and streamlined automotive ecosystem.
Steve Healy, our Technical Cataloguer, has played a vital role in this achievement. His diligence and the hard work of our Catalogue Team have elevated Shaftec to being ranked the UK’s number one for vehicle parc coverage in the following product groups: Driveshafts, Brake Calipers, Steering Racks, Steering Pumps, and Steering Columns. Of particular note are our driveshaft programme which comes in at almost 10 percent higher than the next leading competitor, and our caliper programme which achieves 96.65 percent UK coverage.
Steve emphasises: “It is a great achievement and credit to our Cataloguing Team for their hard work and continuing effort to reach this goal. Not only have the Catalogue Team reached the Premium Data Supplier status, but the team has also gone above and beyond in getting Shaftec to this position in the country.”
Marketing Manager Adrian Kitchen highlights the significance of this accomplishment, stating: “Shaftec works continuously to manage and improve the quality of our catalogue data to offer our customers the most reliable and accurate data. This recognition corroborates our ongoing commitment and support to our customers over the years.”
Shaftec has been working closely with the Elcome team using its Xchecker Cataloguing System to deliver its information to TecDoc since 2016. To achieve TecDoc’s Premier Data Supplier status requires a company to meet 13 Key performance Indicators (KPIs) consistently and to a 99 percent minimum degree of accuracy. This performance is reviewed every quarter to retain the status title.
Achieving Premier Data Supplier Status with TecDoc is a proud moment for Shaftec. It not only positions us as a leader in the industry but reinforces our dedication to providing accurate, reliable data that powers the automotive ecosystem. As we celebrate this milestone, we remain committed to delivering excellence and contributing to the success of our customers and partners in the automotive world.
