Hove based company wins prestigious automotive industry award
Viccari Wheele Ltd, a Hove-based design company has won Bodyshop Magazine's Innovation Award 2002 for ClaimWatch™, its web-based bodyshop management program. The winners were announced and all presentations made on Friday October 18th at the Bodyshop Magazine Award Ceremony held at The Celtic Manor Resort, Newport, Gwent.
ClaimWatch is a web-based package that enables car bodyshops, their work providers and the motorist to track the status of their vehicle repairs at all times. This is displayed on the bodyshop's website with the added benefit of SMS text messaging direct to customers' mobile phones. This helps bodyshops to run more effectively and efficiently, improving their customer service levels whilst minimising the number of intrusive customer calls.
Steve Wheele, of Viccari Wheele, comments, "Winning the Innovation Award was very good news for us at Viccari Wheele and we're all thrilled… it's great to have public recognition for the months of behind-the-scenes development work that made ClaimWatch a reality. ClaimWatch is already in use at several large UK bodyshops currently tracking over 2000 accident damaged vehicles per month and we are confident that winning this award will lead to further interest - and sales."
Steve Wheele continues, "This is an outstanding achievement for a relatively small company and it really boosts our reputation as a leading design and web programming innovator across various market sectors. We're all excited by the commercial potential that may result from the win and we're looking forward to busy days ahead!"
