Minutes

  • Antitrust statement was read and the meeting minutes were accepted

  • Committee Chairs(s): Education Committee Chair Kathy Goddard has not attended regular meetings and Don Porter offered to assist. An email was sent to all Education Committee members inviting them to co-chair and no responses were received. Stacey will reach out to Don to confirm he will chair future meetings.

  • Video update: Prior to holding a video demo meeting, Stacey reached out to video companies to negotiate price. YDRAW was the only company that brought down its price to meet CIECA’s budget. Paul, Paulette and Stacey met with the YDRAW project manager on 3/17 prior to the Education Committee meeting. The company seems organized and a good candidate for what we are looking for in our price range. The decision was made to go ahead with YDRAW. No demo meeting is needed in light of this decision.

  • Newsletter: The committee was shown final draft of quarterly newsletter. We discussed adding the website link for the new member companies that have agreed to be listed. Kelly noted that the wording at the bottom of newsletter alludes to the newsletter having the capability to be shared. Stacey will delete that reference and keep social media links.

  • 2021 CIECAST Webinars Update:

    • March 25 - Mitchell, Tractable and Claims Genius will present about claims automation. About 300 registered.

    • April - 2021R1: This will be one of two technical webinars held during the year. Paulette noted that updates will be given during webinar from Salvage & Architecture Committees regarding updates. An update will also be given about API Standards.

    • May - Safelite will present on glass repair. The committee suggested having the company share information about the technology involved in repairing a windshield in respect to ADAS systems, as well as the training needed. Stacey will send Brady Bonner a list of possible topics to cover.

    • June - CCC & Solera showed interest in presenting about claims automation following the announcement about the March 25 webinar. We will have a Part 2 webinar on this subject in June.

  • CONNEX

    • Final graphic-The Save the Date announcement was sent out.

    • Paul gave a demo of ZoHo Backstage-a conference planning platform in ZoHo. He has set up the conference agenda and information using this tool and we will be able to share it with members and the industry to assist with planning, communication and logistics. There is a broadcast capability to record sessions and it is mobile friendly. Paul also shared the new website look he is creating in ZoHo.

    • Monthly CIECA CONNEX Conference planning meetings will continue. The next one is March 30.

    • MC: Unfortunately, Bill is not able to attend the conference due to NABC conflict. Committee suggested reaching out to Charley Quirt. Conference planning committee will be notified and asked for input as well.

    • Advertising: A CIECA member company asked if we offer advertising opportunities other than sponsorships. This will be discussed during conference planning meeting.

    • Potential presenters

    • Presentation ideas:

      • Dustin suggested having a motivational speaker who is a former Chicago Bear.

    • Great meeting. Thank you everyone!
