TUES 12TH & WEDS 13TH NOVEMBER
Increasing vehicle complexity and mobility user service expectations are significant challenges for the automotive aftermarket. “Softwarisation” and secure access restrictions mean that even simple tasks like replacing parts can require a diagnostic procedure, sometimes only possible with an OE diagnostics tool This leads to workshops needing to source and manage multiple solutions if they wish to service a wide range of vehicles, which can be expensive and inefficient. The Bosch diagnostics strategy removes these issues and provides workshops with a complete solution, no matter how complex the task.
As vehicle technology and vehicle type approval requirements increasingly change the way that vehicles can be diagnosed, serviced and maintained, Neil Pattemore looks at how the UK aftermarket can no longer expect ‘business as usual’, but needs to build on its current position to prosper in the future. With a life-long career in the aftermarket, Neil is able to draw on his knowledge and experience to explain what businesses need to know to ensure their future success
At Mechanex, ALLDATA Europe UK Sales Director, Simon Frost, will spearhead a team of ALLDATA experts, all dedicated to illustrating the benefits of using genuine and unedited OEM data in the day-to-day running of a business. Simon will take to the stage to champion the importance of official technical data in today’s challenging and complex workshop arena
