IVS recognise that with environmental awareness increasing exponentially, organisations are making efforts to reduce their carbon footprint and increase recycling as part of their operating practise. Undoubtedly, Green Policies will play an ever increasing role in how companies conduct themselves.
We provide all the features gathered from over 18 years of high quality accident & claims management, with the benefits of helping our trading partners to manage & measure their environmental impact.
As well as providing all the benefits of a flexible and efficient repair management solution, we are also proud to lead the way in attempting to reduce the environmental impact of the service we provide.
