SAN DIEGO, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Nov 3, 2008 -- Mitchell International, Inc., a leading provider of information, workflow, and performance management solutions to the collision claims and repair industries, will introduce its new online portal -- Mitchell Information Center -- at this year's NACE in Las Vegas. Mitchell Information Center (www.mitchellinformationcenter.com) is a user-friendly, searchable database of historical vehicle repair reference data that spans 20 years and leverages Mitchell's 60 years of collision industry expertise. The portal provides access to critical repair information that can assist a collision repair facility in efficiently and profitably restoring vehicles to pre-accident conditions in a safe and timely fashion.

Mitchell Information Center combines the Company's industry-leading vehicle dimensions data -- including a new interactive frame viewer -- with procedural and mechanical repair information such as electrical and restraint systems. The result of this combination is a comprehensive web-based solution that can help collision repair facilities improve their bottom line by keeping jobs in-house that are frequently hired out to other vendors.

"With this new searchable and interactive online format, we're able to enhance the end user experience and help technicians get to the right information faster," said Peter Lovasz, Director of Product Management for Mitchell International. "Mitchell Information Center will play a critical role in allowing us to deliver the full breadth of Mitchell's world-class collision repair reference data and offer our existing Collision Repair Series and Print Publications customers a compelling upgrade path," he added.

"Our goal at Mitchell is to provide collision repairers with solutions that give them the vital information they need to repair vehicles safely, correctly and efficiently, which is why we are so excited to introduce Mitchell Information Center to the collision repair community. Mitchell has 60 years of collision industry expertise, and the Mitchell Information Center continues that tradition and leadership," said Marc Brungger, Executive Vice President of Auto Physical Damage Solutions for Mitchell International. "In our current economic climate, collision repairers are under extreme pressure to contain operating costs while using proper repair techniques that comply with manufacturer repair guidelines. This new portal helps repairers do exactly that by providing a single access point for the most timely and comprehensive repair data while eliminating the cost, complexity and inconvenience of using multiple sources."

Collision repairers who would like to learn more about Mitchell Information Center are invited to visit the Mitchell Booth -- #N3587 -- at NACE, which is being held from November 6-8 at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas, NV. Collision repairers can also visit www.mitchellinformationcenter.com for more information.
