Data on demand for Autotech contractors

Autotech Recruit has teamed up with automotive data solutions provider HaynesPro UK to ensure that every contractor within its network has instant access to OEM technical and MOT data on any vehicle they are working on.

While equipping vehicle technicians and MOT testers with essential information to help them work more efficiently, HaynesPro UK’s OEM technical data will also allow them to estimate repair times and cut the time it takes to identify issues.

Last year, the Autotech Group pledged to invest £170k in training and upskilling its network of 450 contractors. This latest initiative is part of this investment.

From OEM service schedules and procedures to fluid capacity and type, HaynesPro UK Silver Level service also provides technical drawings. For electric/hybrid vehicles, information on battery disconnections and high voltage circuit deactivation will also be available. An MOT function will also provide the tester with all historical information on the vehicle.

Simon King, managing director of Autotech Recruit and Autotech Training, said: “We live in a data driven world and, as cars become increasingly complex, it is vital that our contractors are not only trained to a high level, but that they have any relevant vehicle information available to them at all times.”

Chris Warner, sales director of HaynesPro UK, said: “This latest partnership strengthens our alliance with the Autotech Group, as, earlier this year, we became an official partner of Autotech Training’s Electric Vehicle Training Suite. The automotive industry is moving on rapidly and, at the heart of this, is technology. We share the company’s ethos that all vehicle technicians and MOT testers should have access to the tools and skills required to carry out their jobs efficiently, and our data driven software provides them with the most up-to-date OEM vehicle technical data.”
