What is the purpose?

The ARA, ATA, and SAAR have partnered with AutoHouse Technologies to produce industry benchmark reports. The purpose of these reports is to more accurately evaluate and understand the characteristics of the provincial collision repair markets vs. other markets, and to use the knowledge gained to better represent and serve their members.   

What is needed?

In order to compile these reports, AutoHouse Technologies needs to aggregate repair order data from across multiple collision repair facilities. The data is extracted from the BSMS (body shop management system) through a quick, non-disruptive process. We understand that your data needs to be protected; we've put measures in place to ensure that all data is safeguarded and never used for any purpose other than what is stated in our agreement with you. Please review our service and data policies below and feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

How do I participate?

To participate in this benchmark initiative, please complete and submit the form below and an AutoHouse representative will be in touch to discuss the next steps. The ARA, ATA and SAAR are covering the cost of this project; all we need is a little of your time to support your respective association. Depending on response rates, the number of participating shops may be limited.

For an example of the content to be compiled in the benchmark, please download the 2018 Canadian Benchmark Report here.
