March 26, 2024

The introduction of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in vehicles has brought about changes in auto repair shop operations. Technicians are required to learn new processes, and decision-makers must invest in new equipment to ensure the safe and efficient calibration of ADAS. Many shops opt to outsource these billable opportunities, feeling overwhelmed by the actions needed to bring ADAS in-house — but this doesn’t have to be the case.

Stewart Peregrine, senior executive of ADAS sales at Autel, delves into how the development of ADAS systems has altered the technology and equipment required to provide complete, safe repairs in the automotive aftermarket, as well as the scenarios in which ADAS calibration is necessary. 

 

Whether a shop subcontracts its ADAS calibrations or manages them internally, it remains responsible for the repair. Learn how managing ADAS calibrations in-house can offer better visibility and reporting, increase efficiency in automotive repair shops, and create numerous new revenue streams. If your shop is ready to increase revenue through ADAS integration, read this Ask the Expert to learn more about the equipment and processes you need to implement to seize these opportunities.
