EurotaxGlass's has won the prestigious
Motor Trader Innovation Award for its GlassWorks vehicle
repair estimating system.
GlassWorks links a number of products for handling every
stage of the claims process, replacing labour-intensive
administration and inconsistent communication links between
the various parties involved in the repair of a vehicle.
Products linked by GlassWorks include the BodyMaster bodyshop
management system, the Glassmatix repair estimating system
and eSalvage, an e-commerce environment enabling sellers
and buyers of salvage to trade over the Internet. It can
be used by all parties involved in the collision repair
and insurance claim settlement process.
Repairers and insurance companies often use different
software systems to track the progress of each claim -
a perfect breeding ground for disputes about the costs
and timeframe associated with each repair. GlassWorks
limits the potential for conflict by extracting and pooling
information from different software systems. The result
is that all parties have real-time access to a central,
transparent solution that can cut management costs and
improve workflow control and efficiency. Further benefits
include reduced repair cycle times, greater control over
repair spend, improved relationships between repairers
and insurers, and better customer service due to greater
transparency during the progress of a repair.
Stephen Field, Business Development Manager at EurotaxGlass's,
said: "GlassWorks is a highly integrated technology platform,
specifically developed for the vehicle repair market.
It is truly a state-of-the-art system, which delivers
major benefits and has no direct competitors. The Motor
Trader Innovation Award reflects the leading-edge nature
of the system and we are delighted to receive this great
accolade."
