Assured Performance Network

What Assured Performance Network does

Assured Performance Network operates as the largest certified collision repair provider network in North America. Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Irvine, California, the company runs a single core product: a certification program that verifies collision repair shops maintain the proper tools, equipment, training, and facilities to repair participating automaker brand vehicles according to manufacturer specifications. Certified shops become eligible to perform automaker-authorized repairs and are integrated into the broader collision repair ecosystem through OEC (OEConnection), the parent platform that connects OEMs, insurers, and repair facilities. The company markets under multiple trade names, including Collision Performance Network and Certified Collision Care.

The underlying technology is a certification and compliance verification system tailored to the collision repair industry. Shops apply through dedicated portals for the USA (collisionperformance.com) and Canada (certifymyshop.ca), and the program uses manufacturer-aligned criteria to qualify facilities. Distribution is anchored by OEC's industry relationships and a newsletter/news channel at shopnews.oeconnection.com used to engage certified shops and surface newly certified locations. The business operates with 101-250 employees and serves both SMB collision repair shops (the majority of customers, including franchise brands such as CARSTAR, CSN, and Fix Auto) and select enterprise dealers (e.g., Hagerstown Ford).

The business model is a subscription/recurring certification services model: shops pay to be certified, certification is a prerequisite for accessing automaker-authorized repair work, and ongoing recertification supports recurring revenue. GTM is primarily channel-partner driven, leveraging OEC's OEM and industry relationships. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company has no public listing, no disclosed funding rounds, and limited publicly available financial data, making detailed financial triangulation difficult from public sources.

Direct peers

• I-CAR (Inter-Industry Conference on Auto Collision Repair): I-CAR is the dominant training and professional certification body for the collision repair industry. It is the most directly comparable peer because, like Assured Performance, it sells collision-repair credentials that shops need to access OEM-authorized work.
• VeriFacts: VeriFacts provides independent repair verification and certification services for collision repair facilities, directly competing for the same shop certification wallet and OEM/insurer mandate.
• National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE): ASE is the most recognized automotive technician certification body in North America. While broader than collision, its subscription-based certification model and automaker/insurer alignment make it a direct comparable on business model.

Broad incumbents

• OEConnection (OEC): OEC is Assured Performance's parent platform and a major hub for OEM parts ordering and collision industry software. It is a broad incumbent because the certification business sits inside a much larger parts/collision ecosystem serving overlapping customers.
• CCC Intelligent Solutions: CCC is a leading software, estimating, and workflow platform for the collision repair industry. It is a broad incumbent that serves many of the same shops and insurers and competes for adjacent wallet share through repair standards and data.
• Mitchell International: Mitchell provides estimating, workflow, and data solutions across the P&C and collision repair markets. It overlaps with Assured Performance at the shop-level data and repair-standards layer of the collision ecosystem.
• Audatex (Solera): Audatex/Solera provides collision estimating platforms and shop workflow tools used by insurers and repairers. It is comparable as a broad incumbent operating across the same repairer/insurer value chain.

Regional players

• CARSTAR: CARSTAR is a major North American collision repair franchise network and a visible customer of Assured Performance. It is comparable because it is a parallel aggregator/standard-setter of collision repair capacity, though it competes downstream rather than upstream.
