The Ford Certified Collision Network (FCCN) announced the creation of the Pinnacle Performer Award, an annual recognition for independent collision repair facilities that reach the highest levels of collision repair. An evaluation of in-process vehicles, facility standards and technician certification blend to identify the FCCN shops that stand out among the network.
The FCCN Pinnacle Performer Award recognizes shops that score in the top 5% of their peers on a number of specific collision repair and facility elements, as conducted by the OEC Certified Repair Network team’s annual on-site assessment. The process is designed to review collision repair preparedness and performance against established industry benchmarks.
Categories of assessment include (but are not limited to):
• Repair plan – vehicle assessment, high-voltage vehicle procedures
• Preparation – measuring, steel/aluminum procedures
• Welding, brazing, bonding
• Body
• Finishing
• Quality control – production and pre-delivery
Top performers receive a distinctive FCCN Pinnacle Performer Award coin to display and inspire customers and facility team members on the shop’s accomplishments. In addition, the business receives $500, applied as a credit toward annual Ford certification fees.
The FCCN Pinnacle Performer Award spotlights high-performing shops within the Ford Certified Collision Network. With this in mind, FCCN is grateful to its entire network of shops that deliver quality, safe collision repairs using OEM procedures and parts, day in and day out.
