FUSION MANAGEMENT TO CONTINUE RUNNING FIAT GROUP’S BODYSHOP PROGRAMME

Following a rigorous review and tender process, Fiat Group Automobiles UK has asked Fusion Management to continue with its management of the audit, compliance and technical interests of FGA's approved bodyshop network.

The network currently comprises the Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Fiat Professional and Abarth brands. However, consistent with the strategic alignment of all FGA brands, Fusion will also assume responsibility for Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge.

This arrangement further underlines FGA's commitment to provide a bodyshop network solution to its customers, ensuring high quality repair integrity and, working closely with the FGA dealer network, assuring the delivery of a full and complete brand experience.

"We are delighted to continue to work with Fusion Management," says Lee Titchner, EMEA Regional Manager, FGA UK. "Having seen the professional and thorough manner in which it has worked in the past, we were presented with a strong technical and operational commitment going forward. That made it clear to us that Fusion should be the trusted partner of choice for FGA in the future."

Every dealership in the UK needs to have an Approved Bodyshop under agreed dealer standards. Fusion Management will be responsible for the process of appointing the bodyshop, and continually monitoring quality.

Fusion will manage all aspects of standards authoring, network compliance, audit procedures and technical support to the network. The appointment takes effect immediately.
