More Choice. Same Independent Engineering.

At Laird, we've always believed that technology should make life easier for our clients, not force them to change the way they work.

That's why we're pleased to announce the integration of GT Motive into our Swiftcase workflow, alongside Audatex and Glass's Repair Estimate. The result is one of the most flexible estimating environments available, giving insurers, accident management companies, bodyshops, fleets and claims management companies the freedom to work with the platform that best suits their existing processes.

Working Around Your Business, Not the Other Way Around

Every organisation has its preferred estimating platform. Some have invested heavily in Audatex, others standardise on Glass's Repair Estimate, while GT Motive continues to grow rapidly across the UK and Europe.

Rather than asking clients to adapt to our systems, we've invested in integrating all three directly into our workflow. Whether a case arrives through Audatex, Glass's Repair Estimate or GT Motive, it enters the same streamlined engineering process and receives the same independent, professional assessment.

For our clients, that means less administration, fewer barriers and faster turnaround times.

Technology Supporting Engineers

While Swiftcase orchestrates the workflow behind the scenes, every repair methodology and engineering decision remains in the hands of our qualified vehicle engineers.

Technology helps automate administration, allocate work efficiently and integrate with multiple estimating systems. It doesn't replace engineering judgement.

That approach allows our engineers to spend more time where they add the greatest value: assessing damage, applying repair methodology and producing fair, accurate reports.

Independent, Whatever the Platform

Our independence never changes. Whether an estimate is produced using GT Motive, Audatex or Glass's Repair Estimate, our role remains exactly the same: to provide a fair and reasonable engineering assessment based on the evidence, manufacturer repair methods and industry best practice.

The estimating platform is simply the tool. The expertise behind it is what matters.

Future-Proof by Design

Adding a third estimating platform is more than another software integration. It reflects the way Laird continues to invest in technology that removes friction from the claims process.

As the industry evolves, our clients can be confident that we're building systems around flexibility, integration and choice, not tying them to a single way of working.

Whether you're an insurer, bodyshop, accident management company or claims management company, you can choose the estimating platform that works best for your business, while benefiting from the same responsive service, nationwide engineering expertise and independent assessments that Laird is known for.

More choice. Less friction. The same trusted engineering.
