Avtodom Group of Companies and AutoSpecCenter Group of Companies launched merging process concerning administrative divisions forming a single management company in the summer of 2021. Maxim Krivoshey became the head of the unified IT service in April 2022.

Maxim graduated from Penza State University in 2001. He has been working in IT since 1998. Since 2008, he has been working on leadership positions. Maxim joined the automotive sphere in 2010. He headed the IT department in one of the largest Russian automobile holdings represented by 100 car dealerships in 10 Russian cities from 2015 to 2021. Maxim joined the management team of Avtodom Group of Companies and AutoSpecCenter Group of Companies as IT Director in April 2022.

Nowadays, large automotive holdings as well as companies from various segments, that possess a modern efficient IT infrastructure, have a serious competitive advantage on the market. The main trends of the strategy of Avtodom Group of Companies and AutoSpecCenter Group of Companies have not changed, despite the ambiguous situation in the country. Companies are focused on the development of new lines of business and e-commerce, and in general are actively engaged in digitalization. All this entails a continuous complication of the IT landscape and requires modern approaches to IT management. Restructuring of a unified IT service, introduction of a service approach into the work of the IT department, transition to a unified DMS system, normalization and control of reference data, etc. are among the tasks of developing the IT direction.

“First we need to eliminate waste and identify the main value for the end user. Then we need to minimize the actions that do not produce it. We will create knowledge not in the form of disparate documents, but with the help of effective communications between team members and a single center of up-to-date data. Of course, we will have to optimize the whole. At the same time, we will take into account the overall improvement of activities, and not just local optimization, - Maxim Krivoshey, IT Director of Avtodom Group of Companies and AutoSpecCenter Group of Companies, shared his ambitious plans.

AVTODOM was founded in 1992. The company specializes in sales and service of premium and luxury cars. The company's portfolio includes 11 car brands: BMW, MINI, Lamborghini, Mercedes Benz, smart, Porsche, Aurus, Audi, Volvo, Jaguar, Land Rover and 3 motorcycle brands: BMW Motorrad, Ducati and KTM. Dealer centers are located in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Krasnodar. AVTODOM actively develops used car sales and offers a full range of financial services.

In response to a state house hearing on labor rate reimbursed for collision repairs, several hundred Massachusetts auto body shop owners, family members, employees, voc-tech students and supporters are expected to converge on the State House. In addition to community demonstration of support, a motorcade of flatbed trucks topped with damaged cars will circle the area.

The Collision Course event is set for Wednesday, May 18 at 10:30 a.m. – rain or shine. The event is led by The Alliance of Automotive Service Providers of Massachusetts (AASP/MA).

Scheduled speakers include State Representative James K. Hawkins, D-2nd Bristol; Evangelos “Lucky” Papageorg, Executive Director, AASP/MA; Kevin Gallerani, President of AASP/MA and owner of Cape Auto Collision Center, Plymouth, MA; Jack Lamborghini, co-owner of Total Care Accident Repair in Raynham, MA; Guy Glodis, Former State Senator, D-2nd Worcester who led Financial Services Committee as a legislator; and Dennise Caratazzola, concerned consumer from Bridgewater.

The group is protesting the unsustainably low reimbursement rates that were artificially set by insurance companies.

In a statement, State Senator Michael O. Moore, D-2nd Worcester noted, “The current Labor Rate for the auto body industry in unfair and unsustainable. I will continue to advocate for a legislative change that increases the labor rate to make the industry viable and consumers safe.”

Brian Bernard, co-owner of Total Care Accident Repair in Raynham, an independent collision center owner, said the current $40-per-hour reimbursement rate is the lowest in the nation and falls far short of covering the body shop owners’ labor, equipment, training and repair costs. As a result, unfortunately, many consumers have to pay the difference out of pocket, he said.

Bernard said the labor reimbursement rates paid by Massachusetts auto insurers have stayed the same for 11 years.

The rates only moved $10 in nearly 34 years. Since 1988 the labor rate has increased $10 while the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has increased 137.7% and insurance premiums have increased 254%.

Additionally, advanced technology has resulted in cars becoming far more complex and expensive to repair. Additional training and equipment have forced Massachusetts auto body shop owners to invest far more to get paid less, Bernard said.

“It’s tremendously unfair to consumers who pay thousands of dollars in premiums to have their insurance companies tell them they’re not going to cover the cost of their repairs. We’ve done our best to bring attention to this issue, but at this point we need to make it clear to insurers and consumers that we cannot do this work at the current reimbursement rates,” Bernard said.

The final report, issued on April 13, 2022, of the Special Commission on Auto Body Labor Rates outlines the issues that require a vote by the state legislature to rectify. The full report can be found at https://malegislature.gov/Bills/192/SD3104
