Overview

Web Design & Development Project Overview

Saskatoon Truck Parts sells used heavy-truck parts, which is a harder thing to put on a website than it sounds. The inventory is not a product line — it is whatever came off the last unit through the yard, and the person searching wants a specific Detroit Diesel or a specific Eaton rear end, not a category page. The proposal landed in mid-November 2024 with a working version due before January.

The catalogue was built around how the parts are actually asked for. Five separate manufacturer taxonomies — truck, engine, transmission, front differential, rear differential — mean a Cummins can be found without knowing what it was pulled from, and a Kenworth can be found without knowing what is in it. Fifty-plus units are listed by year, make and model, each with its own page, specifications, photographs and a quote request. Six service pages cover the shop side, a Request a Part route catches everything the inventory does not, and a We’re Buying page runs the yard in the other direction.

Case study

Deep Dive

What actually went into Saskatoon Truck Parts’s build, decision by decision — and the service behind each one.

01
Five ways in, because there are five questions
Somebody wants a Cummins. Somebody else wants whatever fits a 2009 ProStar. A third caller only knows it is an Eaton rear end. Truck, engine, transmission, front diff, rear diff — five separate manufacturer indexes, each with its own archive, because a single "browse parts" page assumes everyone arrives knowing the same thing. They do not.

02
Mid-November to a working site by New Year
The proposal was dated the twelfth of November and committed to a working version one before January the first. Seven weeks, over Christmas, including a bulk product import. Polish came afterwards, which is the correct order — a catalogue that is live and imperfect earns more than a perfect one that launches in March.

03
A wrecking yard buys as much as it sells
Every used-parts business has a second audience nobody builds for: the operator with a dead truck who wants it gone. We're Buying sits in the main menu beside Inventory, at the same weight, with its own explanation of what the yard takes and how to start the conversation. Half the business, and normally a phone number in a footer.

04
Handing over the keys to the catalogue
The first fifty-odd units went in from a spreadsheet in one import. After that the yard runs it — a unit sells, somebody at the desk retires the page; a truck arrives, they add it, and the manufacturer indexes update themselves. A parts catalogue that needs a developer for every change is a parts catalogue that goes stale by February.
