NASTF Announces Fall Meeting Date

The National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF) has announced the date and location of its Fall General meeting, which will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2009 at 1:30 pm at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, just prior to the International Autobody Congress and Exhibition (NACE) and Congress of Automotive Repair Services (CARS) trade shows.

In addition to the regular committee and organization reports, the meeting agenda includes an update and discussion on the State of the Industry and a panel on non-key code uses for the Secure Data Release Model.

“The Fall NASTF General Meeting is usually well-attended due to the proximity to NACE and CARS,” said Charlie Gorman, NASTF Chairman. “Given the current economic conditions and dramatic changes in the marketplace over the past year, we’re looking forward to some lively input and discussion at this gathering and encourage every service professional attending AAPEX, SEMA, NACE or CARS to join us and learn how NASTF is working to improve the information access within the automotive service and collision repair industries.”
