VeriFacts Automotive has announced the finalists for the VeriFacts Automotive ACE Awards (Achievement in Collision Repair Excellence). The winner will be announced on Thursday, Nov. 6 at the 2014 Collision Industry Conference (CIC) held in conjunction with the SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Each year, VeriFacts Automotive recognizes a collision repair center that has participated in the Verified Quality (VQ) Program for a minimum of six months, and has consistently delivered superior output repair quality. VQ facilities have opened their shops to independent verification experts so that the industry and consumers can know that these facilities produce high-quality output.

In 2013, VeriFacts Automotive announced the permanent naming of the ACE Award by honoring the contributions of Dale Delmege throughout each segment of the collision repair industry. The Dale Delmege Award recognizes the remarkable collision repair center that consistently produces and delivers verified repair quality.

“I know of few people as committed to and as influential in their pursuit of the long-term betterment of our industry than Dale Delmege,” said Farzam Afshar, one of the original founders of VeriFacts Automotive. “I am pleased to be able to recognize the scale of Dale’s contributions over the years by naming our ACE Award for the exceptional collision repair center the ‘Dale Delmege Award.’”

The finalists for the Dale Delmege Award have all displayed a commitment to safe, correct and smart repairs. This year, the award will be presented to two shop locations: one for their verified high-quality Advanced Materials and Aluminum repairs, and one for their verified high-quality Traditional Material repairs.
