Locatory.com, a leading global aviation marketplace, has announced a new partnership with Ambry Hill Technologies, aiming to enhance the way it handles Requests for Quotations (RFQs). The collaboration centers around the integration of Ambry Hill’s advanced RFQ management tool, Vista-Quote, which is designed to significantly simplify the process of managing RFQs using advanced technological solutions.
As an established player in the aviation industry, Locatory.com has built a reputation for connecting buyers and sellers of aircraft spare parts, aerospace products, tooling, equipment, and services worldwide. With a strong presence in over 100 countries, including major global aviation hubs, the marketplace has become a go-to platform for companies seeking fast, reliable access to aviation inventory, spare parts, services, chemicals and consumables, as well as a wide array of other aviation-related assets. Over the past 13 years, Locatory.com has experienced steady growth, making it essential to adopt new solutions that help manage the increasing demand for RFQs across its platform.
This new partnership introduces Vista-Quote.com into Locatory.com’s ecosystem, allowing clients to seamlessly manage inbound RFQs and customer quotes while staying connected to their Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software or legacy database. Vista-Quote’s AI-powered features include Email Recognition and Automatic Quoting, which means it can read and understand even RFQs that arrive via email – including those sent directly from individual buyers. Once these unstructured emails are processed, they are standardized and organized within Vista-Quote, making it easier for Locatory.com’s users to respond quickly and correctly.
Additionally, businesses within the Locatory.com ecosystem now benefit from automatic quoting capabilities that speed up supplier responses by quickly generating precise quotes that align with expected pricing requirements. This reduces errors and simplifies tasks that were previously done manually. With these advanced tools, businesses are now able to auto-quote 50% to 80% of their RFQs.
A Cross-Platform Solution with Flexibility
Locatory.com’s clients will benefit from a more efficient RFQ process, as the system can now automatically sort, interpret, and prepare responses for incoming requests. This means less manual work, fewer delays, and more time to focus on what matters most – serving their customers. The result is a streamlined workflow that improves the overall user experience, making it faster and easier for aviation businesses to find and acquire the parts they need.
One of Vista-Quote’s standout features is its cross-platform capability, which, for example, includes a mobile app that allows users to manage RFQs from anywhere, at any time. This aligns with Locatory.com’s goal to offer a flexible, user-friendly platform that meets the needs of today’s fast-paced aviation industry. The mobile accessibility of Vista-Quote means that whether a client is at their desk or on the go, they can access and respond to RFQs effortlessly.
“Integrating Vista-Quote into our RFQ management process means that our clients will experience faster response times and more accurate quotes, which is a huge win for everyone involved,” said Toma Matutytė, CEO of Locatory.com. “We’re always looking for ways to make our platform more efficient and customer-focused, and this partnership is a key part of that effort.”
Additional Help with RFQ Management
Locatory.com has always been at the forefront of adopting new technologies to improve its platform. In addition to the new Vista-Quote integration, the company already utilizes Amber AI, which is its in-house AI tool – to assist the marketplace clients on the either complicated or time-consuming parts and services procurement process. Amber AI processes structured email requests and helps automate quoting tasks, but with Vista-Quote, Locatory.com can now also efficiently manage unstructured, human-created RFQs. The combination of these tools ensures that every type of RFQ, no matter how it is sent, is processed smoothly and accurately.
With the aviation industry’s demand for spare parts and services on the rise, Locatory.com’s adoption of Vista-Quote is another significant move to ensure it is continuing to excel in meeting its clients’ expectations. This collaboration makes Locatory.com one of the most technologically advanced marketplaces in the aviation sector, setting a high standard for others in the field.
Building a Stronger Aviation Ecosystem
“Our collaboration with Locatory.com offers a transformative solution for the aviation industry’s evolving business needs,” said Ambry Hill Founder and President, Paul Stewart. “By integrating our technologies, we’re not just simplifying buying and selling—we’re enabling businesses to operate smarter, faster, and with greater efficiency towards growth. Locatory.com’s innovative approach aligns with our vision, and together we’re delivering powerful solutions that drive real impact.”
By teaming up with Ambry Hill Technologies, Locatory.com is taking a significant step toward further enhancing the efficiency and reliability of its services. The integration of such solutions as Vista-Quote promises to help Locatory.com offer more value to its clients, putting forward solutions that save time, reduce costs, and simplify the RFQ process.
