ATC Drivetrain

What ATC Drivetrain does

ATC Drivetrain (legal entity ATCDT Corp, doing business as ATC Reman) is an independent automotive remanufacturer founded in 1939 and headquartered in Oklahoma City, USA. The company restores used automotive powertrain and drivetrain components — transmissions, engines, driveline assemblies, and electronics/mechatronics — to like-new condition through a standardized process of disassembly, cleaning, inspection, replacement of worn components, reassembly, and testing. ATC also operates an Electrification line focused on EV battery remanufacturing and recycling, and offers Engineering Services to OEM and aftermarket customers.

ATC sells remanufactured parts at a reported 20-50% discount to new equivalents, addressing cost, availability, and sustainability needs for fleet operators, repair shops, and OEM service channels. Its go-to-market is a dual-channel industrial model: direct OES (Original Equipment Supplier) supply to automotive OEMs globally, and aftermarket distribution to independent repair shops and parts distributors. The company operates 21 remanufacturing facilities across 4 continents (North America, South America, Europe, Asia) and employs 1,900+ people worldwide, serving both legacy ICE powertrains and the transition toward HEV and BEV systems.

The business model is asset- and labor-intensive industrial manufacturing with one-time-transaction revenue per part sold. Growth is driven by a combination of organic volume across geographies and a roll-up acquisition strategy: between 2019 and 2022 ATC acquired ATP Industries Group, HL Smith Transmissions, Treharne Automotive Engineering, and Global Battery Solutions, the latter specifically targeted at expanding EV battery capability. Ownership is private with no disclosed PE or VC backing; founder/CEO Greg Heald leads the company with dedicated electrification leadership under Jason Treharne.
