The VisionPLUS® Excellence (VPE) program is designed for progressive collision repair facilities that subscribe to very high operational and repair standards and demonstrate continual process improvement. Shops that meet the specified VPE criteria and enter the program are used by BASF for referrals to strategic third parties, such as automotive original equipment manufactures (OEM’s) and insurance companies. VPE collision repair facilities will be recognized throughout the industry as the top performers in North America. The VPE program complements existing direct repair and customer service index programs already in place at many of the top shops.
