Association Board Resolutions Supporting the ACEC

AAIA
Joe Register informed the AAIA board that the Aftermarket Council on Electronic Commerce (ACEC) is a voluntary consortium of e-commerce committees from across the aftermarket industry. The ACEC allows trade associations to review and approve the e-commerce and technology standards developed by one of the participants. This coordination will accelerate the development of e-commerce in our industry and ensure that resulting standards serve the broadest number of constituents. Mr. Register asked for a resolution of support from the Board of Directors for continued AAIA participation in the activities of the ACEC. Mr. Swoboda motioned to accept as stated by Mr. Register. Marc Graham seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
