Collision Industry Conference Seeks Input on Important Issues Facing the Industry

CIC is inviting everyone in the collision industry to take a short online survey so it can find out what the top three issues in the industry are to help guide its future direction.

The Collision Industry Conference (CIC) annnounced it is inviting everyone in the collision industry to take part in a short online survey. The results of the survey will guide the future direction of CIC over the next two years.

The online survey is available at https://www.research.net/r/M5HTNQ3 and is open to anyone interested in providing input to the conference. The survey asks all members of the industry to detail the top three issues that are of concern to industry as a whole, and the top three issues that affect their particular segment of the industry.

“The conference provides the industry with a forum where all collision industry stakeholders can come together to discuss pressing issues, build understanding across segments and seek consensus on potential solutions to communicate to the industry at-large,” said CIC Chairman Guy Bargnes. “This survey is the opportunity for the industry to provide direct input to the Collision Industry Conference and help shape its agenda.”

Every two years, the CIC uses its January planning session to determine the direction and agenda for its meetings and committees that are established to address the issues identified. The group uses the feedback it receives from this survey to guide the planning session.

“All segments of the collision industry are undergoing dramatic change,” said Bargnes. “I ask that stakeholders from the collision industry take a few minutes to complete the survey to assist the conference and its many volunteer committee members and participants.”

The Planning Session is scheduled to take place Thursday, Jan. 12th, 2017 at the Palm Springs Hilton in Palm Springs, Calif.

More details on the CIC Planning Session, including the agenda and hotel information, can be found on the CIC website.
