ILS Introduces Digital Catalog to Extend Supplier Visibility Across More Buyer Channels

New capability helps aviation aftermarket suppliers turn existing inventory into a searchable, branded catalog that supports direct RFQs and expanded digital discoverability.

MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 22, 2026 — Inventory Locator Service, LLC (ILS), the world’s most dynamic aerospace marketplace and intelligence platform, today introduced Digital Catalog, a new capability that enables aviation aftermarket suppliers to extend the visibility of the inventory they already manage in ILS. Announced in conjunction with MRO Americas 2026, Digital Catalog gives customers a branded, searchable catalog experience that complements the ILS Marketplace and supports direct buyer engagement beyond marketplace listings.

Marketplace presence remains essential, but today’s buyers research across multiple channels before submitting an RFQ. They expect a clear, direct path to search inventory, review details, and engage with confidence. Digital Catalog addresses that shift by giving ILS customers an added visibility layer they can use across outreach, trade show follow-up, sales conversations, search, and AI-assisted buyer research.

“Digital Catalog gives our customers a practical new way to extend the reach of the inventory they already manage in ILS,” said Ashley Neeley, Vice President of Product Services at ILS. “It helps them present inventory in a more branded, searchable format while creating a direct path for buyers to engage. This is about added channel visibility, stronger presentation, and making it easier to turn interest into opportunity.”

Because Digital Catalog builds on existing ILS inventory, customers can go live quickly without re-entering data or creating a separate content system. The capability supports searchable listings, mobile-ready browsing, branded presentation, direct RFQs, and structured catalog content that helps buyers find and evaluate inventory. It also gives sales and marketing teams a shareable destination for campaigns, follow-up, and direct outreach.

Key benefits include:

• Use Existing ILS Inventory Data

• Extend Visibility Beyond Marketplace Listings

• Support Direct RFQs Through a Searchable Catalog

• Give Sales and Marketing Teams a Shareable Destination for Outreach and Follow-Up

Digital Catalog is designed to work alongside the ILS Marketplace, not replace it. The ILS Marketplace continues to support broad buyer discovery across the ILS network, while Digital Catalog gives suppliers an additional branded destination for direct traffic, campaign activity, and buyer engagement. Together, they create a stronger visibility model for aviation aftermarket suppliers seeking both global marketplace reach and greater control over how inventory is presented across modern digital channels.
