Securing access to vehicle data: What SERMI can offer your workshop

The Independent Garage Association’s Pasquale Vaira, Sales Manager brings attendees up to date with the SERMI scheme, outlining what benefits the scheme offers UK workshops and separating facts from fiction along the way. New to the UK, the scheme aims to standardise access to securityrelated vehicle repair and maintenance information across the sector, allowing independent workshops the same level of access as the manufacturers themselves.

11.30 | ALLDATA

The new reality: Meeting modern car repair head on This presentation gives technicians and garage owners insight into the realities of modern vehicle repair.

12.15 | Sophie Lydon

Why trust should be at the centre of your business

As “The Tyre Lady,” my approach has always been simple: lead with safety, and the business will follow. Implementing clear, consistent road safety messaging not only educates customers, it builds trust — and trust is what drives long-term profitability. When customers understand the importance of tyre safety and vehicle maintenance, they’re far more likely to value your expertise, return to your business, and recommend your services.
