"Certified Elite" LOL
Date: 05/23/2011 Ref. number: Service / Customer Care / G_0000084160
Subject: Certified Elite Program To: Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac Dealers DESCRIPTION: As mentioned in previous communications, including the recent Empowerment Virtual Classroom Training (VCT), we are pleased to announce additional details for the Certified Elite Program. INCENTIVE: Dealerships who meet ALL of the established Certified Elite criteria will be provided the following benefits: 1) No requirement for H-Routing of Warranty Claims 2) Direct Access to Technical Assistance Center (TAC) Level 2 support 3) No requirement for Product Quality Center (PQC) authorization for Engine and Transmission assemblies The above benefits will be granted to attaining dealerships for a 6-month period, starting with the official launch on June 30, 2011. EFFECTIVE DATE: June 30, 2011 QUALIFICATIONS: The 2011 Certified Elite Program criteria are as follows: This exciting initiative has been developed in conjunction with our National Dealer Council and Dealer Fixed Operations Advisory Board. It is designed to reward those dealerships which perform all parts of their Fixed Operations business well. As such, we will monitor and adjust the thresholds for the second 6-month transition (on December 31, 2011) so that dealer attainment will continue to require above-average performance in all categories. While the data for each threshold is available in different locations, we have assembled a combined view in the Global Warranty Management System under the “Service Agent Detail” screen. We encourage all dealerships to consider their opportunity to meet the standards and become one of the Certified Elite—providing a truly exceptional experience for your customers.

Ah, Dealership Parts Loyalty...exactly how is this measured? So far, nobody can really explain how that number is determained... typical GM program, nobody knows anything about it. And you have to DIG to get the official #'s! Here are a few of our actual #'s
Repeat Repairs % Year-To-Date (Apr) 2011-05-20 4.6% TOO HIGH! Service Training Standards % Year-To-Date (May 23) 2011-05-27 97.9% OK Dealership Parts Loyalty % (Apr) 2011-05-27 82.2% OK |

I fianally started hitting my #'s but now that they are doing a 12 month rolling % and we are back in the sink hole. My biggest problem is Toppers! Anyone have a way of getting around this? Our FOM is "working" on it! Yeah right!
Any suggestions would be great. Thought maybe of putting in as a net item........or sublet....... |

I just noticed this thread is a little over a year old and it's been a few weeks since tnpartsgguy has been on the forum. tnpartsguy is our resident GM parts expert so I'll send him a Private Message (PM) so he's aware of this thread. Hopefully he'll respond or someone else will share their insight. My background is mostly Chrysler so there's not too much I can offer in terms of advice with your concern. Thanks for "bumping" this thread and hopefully your thread will generate a response. |

The only way I've found to bypass the so-called loyaty program is to sublet those items.
I'm still getting screwed because even though I buy my oil from GM through their local distributor, because I don't cost it the way they want me to, I get no credit for it. I'm supposed to be loyal, yet they command ACD jobbers to come into my town and take any and all wholesale GM business they can. Yeah, thanks GM |
