ACES Catalog Merge
Understanding opportunities for product at the specific unit level is invaluable in strategic planning, product management and inventory planning and deployment.

VINtelligence combines multiple data sources including decode specifications and OEM build data to provide great coverage, accuracy, and standardization for vehicles on the road. Coverage is currently available in the United States, Canada, Australia and Mexico with new regions to be added in the coming years.
Plate to VIN
Flow seamlessly from a license plate number to a VIN that can then be posted to VINtelligence to decode the VIN. This service allows online aftermarket catalog tools to offer the capability to collect a plate number as a point of entry into part fitment for the specific vehicle. Plate to VIN simplifies vehicle look up for both consumers and counter people.
VINspecific
The automotive space has evolved over the past several years with new technologies, capabilities, and configurations. These changes have created challenges in accurately identifying vehicle specifications using historic VIN decoding methodologies. To address this, S&P Global Mobility has curated a set of VIN Specific (Build data, Window Sticker data) that is now mapped to the ACES standard.
Custom Take Rates
Custom take rates work in concert with VINSpecific detail to provide detail on fitment options. Custom take rates add clarity to whether features were standard, optional, included in a package or not available. Offering insight on how features are being included in the fleet provides greater clarity on the composition of the vehicle fleet.
Vehicle Miles Traveled
Data on Vehicle Miles Traveled is key for understanding vehicle usage. VMT is essential for planning any business that derives revenue from vehicles in use; from financing and insurance to parts and service, tires and lubricants. Governments, legislators and other non-profit organizations need to understand VMT to make informed decisions on emission policies and infrastructure investments.
