Good morning, {{firstName}}.

This week SCRS announced an ADAS division and governing council. That's not just organizational news. It signals the industry is treating calibration as a standalone specialty, not a bolt-on service.

FIELD

1. SCRS formalizes ADAS as standalone specialty certification

SCRS launched a dedicated ADAS division with its own governing council this week. This matters because it moves calibration from 'something your shop might do' to 'a certified discipline with standards.' Shops now have a formal track to upskill and credential techs. Carriers and OEMs get clarity on who's qualified. It's the industry saying: this is not optional anymore, and it's not a quick add-on.

DM me 'audit' on LinkedIn. I'll review your last 3 denied calibrations and write the OEM-cited justification that flips them. Free. No pitch.

📬 Hit reply. Reply: has any carrier actually asked to see your tech's ADAS credentials before paying a calibration line?

📤 Know a shop that should read this?

One forward could save them three hours of denial fights this month.

👀 Tomorrow: watch for carrier responses to the SCRS certification push and whether OEMs start referencing it in repair procedure language.
