Stuart McColl, president, Combined Computer Technology, believes new integration will make life easier for shops, saying, "It's a great thing for a body shop to have an automatic tool like EMSReview. We're glad to interface our CC3 management system to EMSReview because it makes it even easier for body shop estimators and managers to carefully manage their revenue, with a minimal amount of effort."

David Schultz of Shop Data Management, Inc. the makers of CRASH Management Systems believes EMSReview will help give his customers an advantage against their competitors.

"Our goal at CRASH Management Systems is to give our customers the latest management and decision making tools available. We believe that the EMSReview will give our customers yet another advantage that they did not previously have."

"The review process will enhance our customer's ability to generate more accurate estimates, comply with insurance agreements and provide standardized KPI reporting geared to give repair facilities an industry recognized tool to report and analyze key estimating statistics. We are excited to provide the first level of integration between our management system and the EMSReview product from DSS."

Ed Cardenal, Chief Operating Officer, Integrated Collision Management (ICM) views the integration as a continuation of their drive to deliver the best solutions to their customers, saying "Combining our efforts with dedicated integrated technology providers in our industry fits the mission that ICM has been self-prescribed to for its past 9 years of existence and continuing to the future. We look forward to working with DSS and believe the partnership will give our customers the opportunity to use the management tools they need to be the very best in their business."

Owen Grapman, President, NewEra Software, believes the combination makes good sense saying, "NewEra Software is pleased to announce integration of its AUTOFOCUS Collision Shop Management software with EMSReview, allowing shops to quickly and easily audit and review their estimates for DRP compliance."

"Through the KPI tracking facilities already in AUTOFOCUS, and the proposed KPI reporting standards, shops will not only be able to track how their shop is doing on a day-to-day basis, but also see how their shops stack up when compared to their competition. Predicting profits and analyzing results in EMSReview will go hand-in-hand with AUTOFOCUS tools that make increased profits a reality all the way through the production process."

John Conlon, President Vantedge Software, thinks integration and standards advance all collision repairers, saying, "As a Collision shop owner and Founder of the Vantedge bodyshop management system we are excited to incorporate the concepts of EMSReview into Vantedge. EMSReview helps advance businesses and the entire collision repair industry."
