16/07/2008 - Just Car Clinics Lincoln on the road to success

The Lincoln branch of Just Car Clinics is one of the first amongst the UK’s second largest independent collision repair chain to acquire the BSI Kitemark.

Members of the team at the Lincoln site have been working tirelessly to ensure they achieved the acclaimed specification, which was developed by the British Standards Institute (BSI) in association with industry stakeholders.

The motorists, as well as passengers and pedestrians, will be the biggest beneficiary of the Kitemark Vehicle Body Repair scheme as it is their lives that this scheme is seeking to protect.

The kitemark demonstrates BSI and the vehicle body repair industry is serious about safety and the Kitemark scheme not only delivers safe services but helps the customer to identify them through a recognised symbol.

Dave Hadfield, general manager of JCC’s Lincoln branch, said: “I am extremely pleased that we have acquired this accreditation, I would like to thank the whole team at the Lincoln branch who have worked so hard over the past few months to ensure we have met all targets. The BSI Kitemark is recognised by insurers, retailers and customers alike and it shows how dedicated we are to exceeding expectations.”

Now, JCC is extending the program ensure they acquire Kitemark status at all 21 sites and work is already underway to reach the required standards by the end of the year. Regular, unannounced BSI audits will ensure that the standards of JCC’s people, repair methods, equipment, materials, quality control checks, processes management and internal audits are maintained.

Barry Whittles, JCC’s chief executive, added: “I would like to congratulate Dave and his team at the Lincoln branch and thank them for all their hard work. This scheme puts us ahead of our competitors and ensures that we lead the way in complying with insurance company requirements that will eventually see all bodyshops having to reach this standard if they want to continue to repair vehicles.”
