  • Collision Management Minute

    Monday 16 July 2018

    Jeff Peevy, AMAM I want to welcome Accountable Estimating to the AMi family. They recently allowed AMi to build a "powered by AMi" learning portal for them. Along with their own learning portal, they now have five online course modules on Collision Photography. These course modules may be accessed as electives through the standard AMi "myAMI" Learning Portal or through their new Accountable Estimating Learning Portal "powered by AMi."

Immediately they answered and I explained my situation, as I had hoped to do in person. They said unfortunately they were busy and only if the tire was already there could they get to it. I explained I had been there for over 20 minutes waiting, so never mind. I was finally able to find great service and though my need was small, they made me feel like they cared.

It was is no surprise the busiest tire shop was also the one who disp... read more

    Jeff Peevy, AMAM Learning is the only source of a sustainable competitive advantage. This is an important element in the AMi core belief. It is at the very heart of everything we do.
