RAA Chooses Snap On Business Solutions

08 January 2010

The Retail Automotive Alliance Limited (RAA) has awarded a two year contract to Snap-on Business Solutions (SBS). SBS is the leading provider of specialist garage service / repair equipment and management services to a wide range of clients in the automotive franchise sector. SBS provides professional services and programmes that represent the world’s largest vehicle manufacturers across the globe. SBS will be providing a dedicated equipment and services supply route that allows the RAA members to financially benefit from the scale and quality that SBS offers.

The RAA represents 22 independent motor dealer groups with a combined turnover of £2.5 billion a year. The decision by the RAA shareholders to appoint Office Depot as the provider of stationery and office solution services was unanimous.

Having just missed out on the contract award in 2007, SBS have maintained their professional approach, continued to communicate with the RAA and support their members through other initiatives. Now, with very competitive pricing together with their leading professional product and services offering, the RAA are looking forward to an initial 2 year partnership.

Marc Matthew the RAA Chairman who is also Chairman of Lifestyle Europe Limited said: “We will look forward to have a good working relationship with Snap-on Business Solutions over the next two years. Following a review of Snap-on Business Solutions competitor’s, it was clear that Snap-on Business Solutions would be an outstanding choice for our members. The unanimous feeling among the members was that we would like to work with Snap-on Business Solutions to develop a best-in-class service for our members.”

David Stott – Vice President Snap-on Business Solutions Europe said: “For Snap-on Business Solutions this is a very significant contract award and we are delighted to have been given the opportunity to be working with an organisation such as the RAA and their members by leveraging the existing Automotive manufacturer relationships. We look forward to the next 2 years and hopefully longer, working and developing a strong mutually beneficial partnership and an increased service offering”.
