The Repair Standards Working Group is made up of industry professionals and past participants of the sunset/former CIC Standards Committee.  The objective of this meeting is to discuss gaps in Structural Repair standards with all industry segments. 

“One of the single biggest issues confronting our industry today is Structural Repair “gaps”.  Indicated Paul Krauss, President of Craftsman Auto Body .  “Gaps” is a term used to describe where the manufacturer may not have documented a specific procedure on a structural repair or replacement.  

“Our goal for this meeting is to have an open discussion regarding these gaps with all affected segments.  Given today’s highly sophisticated vehicles repair facilities must have access to rock solid structural replace procedures” concluded Krauss.
