Glenn Mitchell loved lists, and this love of lists gave impetus to the transformation of the automotive industry. The parts manager of a car dealership in post-World War II San Diego, Mitchell created extensive lists of automobile parts numbers, prices and descriptions to aide his parts counterman in looking up parts for body shops.
As knowledge of these lists spread by word of mouth, Mitchell began receiving calls from other car dealers, body shop technicians and even insurance adjusters, requesting his specific and well-documented information. That is when Mitchell had a breakthrough idea that has since generated hundreds of millions of dollars in sales, resulted in the employment of hundreds of people and made life easier and more productive for thousands more. What, precisely, was his innovation? Glenn Mitchell realized that his informational lists were a valuable asset that could benefit the automotive industry on a large scale.
Founded in Glenn Mitchell's garage in 1946, Mitchell International, Inc. has grown from a “Mom and Pop” business into North America's largest provider of collision repair information. The vast majority of North American collision repair shops and most of its top insurance companies rely on Mitchell information daily. Dent your car's right front fender? If so, a Mitchell product can tell your insurance company and/or body shop how much a replacement part will cost and how long the repair will take.
Much of Mitchell's information is delivered in book form, as it was in Glenn Mitchell's day. However, the San Diego-based company has proven especially adept at converting its database into easy-to-use electronic formats as well as providing a suite of applications for insurers and collision repairers to improve the claims process.
These applications include the industry’s premier suite of estimating and communications products as well as tools for analyzing claims information and enhancing shop management and efficiency.
Through acquisition, strategic alliances, and in-house development, Mitchell continues to expand its product line and is now leading the industry in providing the most advanced and comprehensive suite of enterprise-wide technology solutions available today for managing the claims process.
