Offers 'consistent service' for insrurers
A group of UK collision repair businesses has launching its own quality assured repairer network aimed specifically at the prestige vehicle market.
Membership of the Vizion Network will be restricted to repair businesses that have prestige manufacturer approvals, BSI Kitemark accreditation and operate the same repair management system.
All Vizion Network businesses will have prestige vehicle manufacturer-trained technicians offering 'own brand' specific knowledge. All will have the BSI Kitemark for vehicle body repair ensuring they follow consistent processes underpinned by thorough BSI audit and inspection.
In addition, using the same repair management system means Vizion members and clients will benefit from improved operational efficiency, transparency, and consistent management information.
Vizion's founding members are Eamonn Dunne of Brooklands, Paul Austin of Balgores, Trevor Barefoot of Exway, Gene Clark of Clarkes, Julian Allen of Motorvation, David Perkins and Graham Eyles of Apollo Motor Group and Gary Lindsay of Autoflow.
Eamonn Dunne of Brooklands has been appointed chairman of Vizion Network. He said: "Vizion has been created to meet a market need. We can no longer afford to have a fragmented, clouded approach to vehicle body repair. Now, owners, insurers and fleet managers can specify a Vizion Network repairer and be confident that their prestige vehicles will be repaired safely and effectively to a consistent high manufacturer standard."
Paul Austin added: "Vizion Network has brought together a group of industry experts dedicated to moving the UK collision industry forward."
