Becoming an ATE BrakeCenter

As a rule, any independent garage can apply to become an ATE BrakeCenter.

Independent garages that wish to specialize as an ATE BrakeCenter can contact an ATE distributor or the ATE sales team directly. In an initial discussion, it will be established whether the service operation meets the relevant acceptance criteria and, if applicable, which prerequisites still have to be put in place. If the service operation meets the acceptance criteria, an ATE BrakeCenter specialist will visit the owner of the independent garage on site and perform a review of the situation using a checklist. This will then be used to make suggestions with regard to equipment and the presentation of the future ATE BrakeCenter. At the same time, options for ATE replacement part stocks and participation in the preparatory training courses will also be clarifi ed. Once all of the preparations have been completed and the relevant staff have participated in an ATE brake training course, the contract will be signed.

The owner of the independent garage will receive a welcome pack for the opening of the new ATE BrakeCenter, which includes useful advertising materials to facilitate the start of the garage into its new future with ATE.
