Federal-Mogul Motorparts, a division of Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation, is the recipient of the 2015 National Catalog Managers Association (NCMA) President’s Gold Award for Catalog Excellence for its popular, free “Garage Gurus” (formerly “SmartChoice™ Mobile”) app for automotive service providers. The annual award recognizes the best examples of printed and electronic catalogs and related product research tools used in the auto care industry.
The app complements the company’s comprehensive new Garage Gurus technical education platform, which offers on-site, online and on-demand training and related support to front-line automotive service professionals. The platform comprises a network of state-of-the-art regional training centers, Web-connected “Gurus-On-The-Go” product technology vans and an extensive curriculum of eLearning courses available at www.FMgaragegurus.com. The Garage Gurus app enables users to access many of these resources when and where they need them.
“We’re pleased to receive this award from NCMA. The Garage Gurus app has already been very popular among automotive service professionals and we expect its reach to multiply as we expand the Garage Gurus network,” said Brent Berman, director of training, consumer experience and marketing, Federal-Mogul Motorparts. “It is instrumental in providing auto service professionals with reliable, fast and extensive repair information so they can quickly and efficiently complete jobs and communicate with their customers.”
