Minutes
The Antitrust statement was read and the meeting minutes were accepted.
CIECAST Webinars 2022
August: The executive director from PAVE has agreed to present.
September: No CIECAST will be planned due to the CONNEX Conference.
October: A technical CIECAST will be held focused on the 2022R2.
November/December: Possible presenters include a blockchain presentation from a State Farm representative, a 3D printing presentation from Wurth or a presentation on telematics from Cambridge Mobil Telematics (CMT). Kim suggested having CMT present since the other two topics will be covered during the CONNEX Conference. She also thought it would be a good fit due to our focus on APIs and FNOL.
CONNEX Presenters
We discussed the line-up of presenters who are confirmed and the agenda.
Greg Horn from Parts Trader is the keynote speaker. The committee was asked for any input on the focus of his presentation. Dustin said he is very knowledgeable and well rounded about industry issues and can discuss the impacts of parts around the world.
3M: A meeting is needed to discuss Andy Boyd’s presentation about the connected body shop.
3D printing: Rebecca Fecteau from BASF confirmed she can present. Ginny suggested she focus on the parts and how to identify them and know they have been printed.
Ranken Technical College: John Helterbrand and Molly Mahoney are able to present. We need to meet to discuss the focus of the presentation.
ADAS/Calibration presentation by Greg Peeters from CAR ADAS: Don suggested tailoring the presentation to what a consumer will see and what needs to be done to be calibration correctly. Dustin said we could focus on past, present and future on the subject.
Blockchain: Don suggested focuses on where we are going and how it has evolved-past, present and future. Dustin suggested incorporating what the next big impact is with blockchain. Paul mentioned that most of the top 25 carriers are sponsoring a blockchain project and it will be expanding. This could lead to an opportunity to develop CIECA Standards.
Don said the agenda looks good and Phil said it was great that we have a line-up of speakers early on in the process.
