Motofix Group, one of the UK’s leading regional bodyshop groups, has undertaken training from RWC to help it prepare for increased ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) calibration requirements.

The ADAS courses have been designed and delivered to help Motofix prepare for the increase in ADAS calibration requirements across its nine sites

As more ADAS-equipped cars hit the roads – fitted with systems such as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and autonomous emergency braking – the need for companies specialising in ADAS services and calibrations is set to rise dramatically.

To ensure it’s ‘future-ready’ for such vehicles, Motofix has introduced training from RWC.

Deployed alongside leading-edge ADAS equipment, the ADAS Awareness training was run for Motofix managers and vehicle damage assessors, while the more advanced IMI ADAS Accreditation AOM230 course was provided for its vehicle mechanical, electrical and trim (MET) technicians across its nine sites.

Richard Tutt, CEO of Motofix, said: “We believe in continually developing our team and ensuring we have the latest technology available to them. Our investment in state-of-the-art ADAS equipment at all sites, coupled with a training partnership from RWC is testament to that commitment. We were delighted with the delivery of these courses and look forward to working with RWC in the future.”

RWC director Rob Ward said: “We were delighted to work with Motofix Group to help them prepare for ADAS technology, and our partnership with the group allows Motofix staff to undertake ongoing training and development in their specific job roles.

“Demand for our ADAS courses has increased exponentially through 2021 as this technology becomes ever-more mainstream, and we’re looking forward to working with other bodyshops to help them too, to embrace this technology and become future-ready.”
