Bergey's Truck Centers Achieves Recognition in Prestigious 2026 MACH Alliance Awards
In a significant milestone for the automotive industry, Bergey's Truck Centers has been honored as one of the standout organizations in the 2026 MACH Alliance Composable Impact Awards. This prestigious award highlights the remarkable efforts of Bergey's, powered by PhaseZero.ai, in delivering a modern commerce experience across its 25 heavy-duty truck locations. The award was announced during the MACH X event held in Toronto on April 28, 2026.
The MACH Alliance, an advocacy group that promotes open, composable, and connected technology, recognized Bergey's alongside only four other global companies from a competitive pool of over 50 submissions. This award signifies not just the transformative steps taken by Bergey's, but also showcases how they have utilized innovative technology to enhance service quality and streamline operations.
Transforming Customer Experience
Bergey’s Truck Centers implemented the PhaseZero CxCommerce platform, which unifies 25 different locations and integrates over 245,000 parts into a single composable architecture. This groundbreaking system allows customers 24/7 self-service access to vital information including real-time inventory, specific pricing, and part identification, drastically improving their shopping experience.
According to James Gavaghan, President of Bergey's Truck Centers, the implementation of this platform has completely reshaped their service model. Customers can now obtain real-time data across locations, while staff members are better positioned to assist customers by focusing on complex inquiries rather than routine order questions. The shift emphasizes a digital-first environment, one that is increasingly vital in engaging the modern customer and workforce.
Impressive Results
Since the introduction of the PhaseZero platform in January 2025, Bergey's Truck Centers has seen remarkable growth in its digital sales metrics. Reports indicate a staggering 92.3% increase in year-over-year sales, a 9.6% conversion rate (significantly higher than the B2B industry benchmark of 1-3%), and a 123.7% growth in session activity. Furthermore, online sales have experienced a fivefold increase compared to pre-platform metrics, driven by enhanced search functionalities and AI-driven part identification services.
These impressive outcomes reflect Bergey's transition from a century-old distributor to a competitive modern entity, aiming to attract a new generation of fleet operators and repair shops who have come to expect convenient, self-service commerce experiences.
Seamless Integration for Workforce Efficiency
Utilizing a clean API strategy, PhaseZero has integrated various systems such as Procede DMS, Plytix PIM, and Google Analytics to ensure a unified customer and employee experience. This strategic move eliminated the need for a systems integrator and helped avoid costly disruptions typical of such transition phases. New personnel now use the same digital tools as their customers, fostering an accelerated onboarding process while decreasing reliance on existing staff's intimate knowledge of operations.
CEO Ram Chandrasekar of PhaseZero.ai emphasized that Bergey’s example shows that modernization can occur without causing significant disruption. The company has managed to bolster their sales growth and service efficiency without increasing their IT workforce, highlighting the power of practical composable commerce solutions.
