was founded in 1995 to meet the needs of the collision repair industry for management training, performance improvement, and systems development.
Today’s competitive and economic environment is more challenging than ever. The true industry leaders are the ones who can adapt to change and adopt more efficient and leaner processes with less waste and lower cycle times. They understand that faster, lower cost processes are "better" because they meet high customer standards by doing things right the first time, every time. These leaders also create people friendly environments that enable us to attract and retain the level of talent necessary to enable and maintain success.
CMS remains on the forefront of that challenge. Its products and services are targeted to meet the needs of the collision repair industry and those who serve it such as manufacturers, insurers, and distributors.
Initially, CMS developed and presented the Vision Plus™ Professional Management Seminar series on behalf of BASF Corporation and has set the standard and defined a leadership role in helping collision industry management move into the 21st Century. Automotive Management Institue (AMI) has accredited all eight of the Vision Plus Seminars. In addition, CMS has presented at the NACE convention since 1999. Since then over 8,000 seats have been filled at CMS Seminars and Workshops.
In addition to seminar development and presenting, CMS has provided on-site consultative services to consolidators, dealerships, and independent collision centers.
In 1999, CMS broadened its portfolio of training to include two-day interactive workshops to train BASF sales representatives and build their core competencies and enable them to offer improved consulting expertise to their collision customers. |
