    Abstract: Methods and systems facilitate facilitating notifying a user of potential savings associated with a parts order. According to various implementations, an order file containing order information associated with a first part is received. A determination is made, based on inventory information, that the first part is available from each of a first and second part sellers. Based on a price matrix, a potential cost savings is determined associated with ordering the first part from the first part seller rather than the second part seller, and a savings beacon associated with the part, and indicating the potential savings, is generated and provided to the user.
