Costing just £375 (incl. VAT) each for both the Car and Light Commercial Vehicle versions, ICME Pro represents a significant saving over separate subscriptions to ICME manuals and ICME Plus.
The ICME manuals – stablemates to the iconic Glass’s Guides for over
65 years – and ICME Plus contain vehicle manufacturers’ recommended repair times, service schedules and selected part numbers/prices for cars and light commercial vehicles. The data contained in the ICME database is received straight from the manufacturer and is the same as that issued to their franchise network for warranty work, thereby taking the guesswork out of estimating and pricing up service and repair jobs.
“Using ICME means workshops gain ready access to service operation, repair time and parts cost information, ensuring that quotes are always competitive,” comments Colin Hay, Commercial Director at
EurotaxGlass’s. “The ICME Pro package offers the customisation
benefits of the PC-based ICME Plus, allowing job estimates to be tailored to incorporate alternative labour rates, opinion times and costs of alternatively-sourced parts. This ensures that the estimate and all relevant accompanying information are accurate for each job undertaken.”
EurotaxGlass’s ICME data is already supplied to Epyx, Unipart and top contract hire and leasing companies, being used as a standard for online repair authorisation, as well as being used by thousands of other facilities across the UK.
While the manuals are distributed annually and the PC product is issued quarterly, the database itself is refreshed continuously with thousands of new and revised repair times and service schedules.
