Have You Heard? RepairLogic Is Now Integrated with CCC ONE
Collision shops have been asking for this, and it's here! RepairLogic is now integrated with CCC ONE, meaning your team can jumpstart the repair plan creation directly from the estimating system you already use. Vehicle information carries over automatically, both platforms stay synchronized in real time, and completed documentation, including your full repair plan, single-use parts report, and calibration report, syncs directly with CCC ONE.
The result is less time switching between systems, fewer redundant manual steps, and a faster path from estimate to complete repair plan. The integration is available now and can be activated directly within RepairLogic or CCC ONE.

The Certification Impact: Real Stories, Real Results
What does OEM certification actually look like in practice? In this webinar recap, four shop leaders from across the country share how certification has helped them attract higher-quality work, strengthen dealer relationships, improve staff retention, and grow profitability even in a tighter market. One certified shop reported 26% year-over-year growth. Another scaled to roughly $300K per month in just 15 months.
Read the recap to see what's working for shops that have made certification a core part of their strategy.
