Audatex North America, Inc. Announces the Launch of its Next-Generation Reporting and Analytics Tool for Collision Repair Facilities

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Audatex North America, Inc., the leading global provider of software and services to the automobile insurance claims processing and collision repair industry, today announced the launch of Audatex Insight for Repair Facilities.

Audatex Insight is the auto claims processing industry's newest Web-based business intelligence platform. Since 2009, this robust analytics solution has empowered insurers to monitor, measure and manage claim performance and loss experience through delivery of the right information at the right time. Now this advanced technology is available for the reporting and analytical needs of single shop owners and multi-shop organizations. By providing repair facilities with the same data and analytics that insurance carriers use, Audatex Insight delivers data transparency and consistency.

"Forward-thinking collision repair facilities know that there is always room for improvement in their business operations. Yet identifying areas of improvement requires compiling business metrics, which can be a complicated, manual and time-consuming process. The Audatex Insight module for Repair Facilities provides users instant access to key performance indicators (KPI) that are critical for managing their business," said Patrick Schmidlin, V.P. of Product Management, Audatex North America. "By enabling repairers to proactively track KPIs, used by insurers to evaluate their direct repair partners, we will help repair facilities self manage and grow their direct repair program business."

"We know that our busy customers do not have a lot of time for training on new technologies.  Audatex Insight was therefore designed to be highly intuitive, with a visual interactive user interface that allows end users to easily create, modify, filter, share and save reports and dashboards," added Beth McAteer, Sr. Product Manager, Audatex North America.  "Also, in addition to providing metrics on business performance, Audatex Insight delivers industry metrics for comparison.  Knowing your business, your competition and industry dynamics is essential in this challenging economy. Audatex Insight will give repair facilities the edge they need to succeed in a competitive business environment."

Available in the U.S. and Canada, Audatex Insight for Repair Facilities will be on display in the Audatex booth (#N503) at the International Autobody Congress & Expo (NACE), Oct. 6-8 in Orlando.
