Certified Collision Group (CCG), an OE Certifications and KPI-focused solutions provider to the collision repair and insurance communities, has announced it will wrap up the year having added 132 U.S. locations in 2018. The company plans to selectively add 200 OE Certified locations in 2019, extending CCG’s market reach to nearly 500 high-quality collision repair businesses across 40 states.

CCG has scaled to become one of the largest collision repair networks in the nation with more than $1 billion in collision repair revenues. In addition, CCG says that it continues to out-pace national chains in providing strategic insurance partners and consumers the opportunity to leverage the power of more than 1,500 OE certification badges within its national repair network.

“The accelerated pace of consolidation within our industry, including the recent Caliber-ABRA merger, continues to position CCG as the best long-term solution to the competitive challenges faced by independent owner-operators and CCG’s provider partners. Additionally, CCG’s market coverage, commitment to OE Certification and best-in-class KPI performance provides significant benefits to our strategic insurer clients,” said Bruce Bares, president and CEO of Certified Collision Group.

Thomas Adams, CCG senior vice president and managing partner, added, “We continue to reinvest in our platform, processes and people, staying firmly committed to our mission: Driving the successes of the best branded, best performing, OE Certified owner-operators by helping them compete on a more level playing field. The future remains bright for CCG Affiliates and insurance partners, as our scale, OE Certifications and KPI performance positions CCG to more effectively compete in a rapidly consolidating industry that faces advancing structural, composition and technology-based repair requirements.”
