Within just a minute or two you can generate a detailed report\, itemizing the difference between your Repair Plan / Estimate and the insurance or 3rd party’s estimate. The report will show you immediately what they missed. Use the report as a supplement report to get paid on the items they forgot or left off or simply give it to your customer as an itemized list of what their insurance covered and what the customer is responsible to pay.  \nLet ReKEY take on the frustration and time-consuming process of re-keying or transferring estimates for you. ReKEY\, is a locally installed software solution that copies and matches PDF estimates directly into ALL major estimating systems. \nDiminished Value: This data empowers consumers to assess not just a car’s purchase worth\, but also its potential value depreciation post-accident\, known as Diminished Value (DV). \nTotal Loss: Are you tired of wasting time on vehicles that you know will be deemed totaled? For a nominal fee\, take those gruesome total loss estimates off your plate and save your shop time & money in the process. Let one of our professionals handle these estimates virtually so you can get back to work that pays! \nInterested?

Upload\, submit\, done—no need to worry about whether an ADAS feature is equipped on a car\, and no need to spend countless hours researching the car’s requirements. We handle all the dirty work for you\, allowing you to invest that time in ensuring quality repairs for your customers. \nFrom OEM documentation to ADAS explanations and sensor identification\, we’ve got it all here for you to use. \nAt ADAS Find\, we are dedicated to providing cutting-edge solutions for automotive and auto body shops in the rapidly evolving world of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Our software is designed to simplify and streamline the process of identifying and performing ADAS calibrations\, ensuring that your shop can effectively handle vehicles equipped with these advanced safety features. \nADAS Find is an advanced platform that takes body shop estimates and scrubs them to identify the required ADAS calibrations/initializations necessary based on the extensive database of OEM requirements compiled by ADAS Find. ADAS is an ever-evolving technology that can be extremely complicated and quite difficult to keep up with. However\, the ability to utilize a tool that can save you hours of research time in determining whether a calibration is necessary\, as well as knowing what to perform in a matter of seconds\, is something that can not only provide time management and improved profits but also ensure safer repairs for customers and the ability to keep up with manufacturer standards. Within ADAS Find is a list of different features available to shops or calibration businesses that will continue to provide streamlined services so everyone can keep up with our industry-intense ADAS growth\, all at the push of a button. \nWant to watch this presentation? \nWe will “see” you at 5:30!!!\n\nADAS Find OKABA Demo\nThursday\, June 6 ¡ 5:30 – 6:30pm\nGoogle Meet joining info\nVideo call link: https://meet.google.com/mkh-amdm-pcv\nOr dial: ‪(US) +1 320-429-8481‬ PIN: ‪744 267 138‬#\nMore phone numbers: https://tel.meet/mkh-amdm-pcv?pin=1585523524320 URL:https://okaba.org/home/event/adas-find/ LOCATION:Virtual Presentation CATEGORIES:Free Recruiting Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://okaba.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/ADAS-Find-Logo-3.0-Transparent-e1713039779897.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240504T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240504T150000 DTSTAMP:20260405T154934 CREATED:20231025T161057Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240502T135559Z UID:1442-1714809600-1714834800@okaba.org SUMMARY:In-Person Learning Session / Drew Bryant & Greg Lobsiger - Must Register to Attend - Click for Details DESCRIPTION:We are so honored to present two amazing industry speakers! \nDrew Bryant CEO DB Orlando Collision Center in Florida\, writer for Fender Bender\, 20-group leader\, in-demand conference speaker\, and award-winning shop owner. \nGreg Lobsiger\, Third Generation shop owner of Loren’s Body Shop in Indiana\, monthly Fender Bender columnist\, and an expert in estimating\, processes and profitability. \nYou do not want to miss this all day event! \nThese two industry leaders will provide extensive valuable knowledge you can implement right away. \nThis will be a dual instruction event.
