Mitchell Reorganizes; NAGS to Become Part of Special Products Unit; Howard Becomes Consultant

Mitchell International will soon announce a sweeping reorganization that moves National Auto Glass Specifications International (NAGS) from its own business unit into a new unit dedicated to special products. Jesse Herrera will lead the new division as general manager. Catherine Howard will serve as a consultant to NAGS for an as yet undetermined length of time.

The new division will include both NAGS and AutocheX. Herrerra previously served as director of corporate development.

AutocheX is a service whereby customers contract to have their customers surveyed by telephone by professional interviewers. In the AutocheX system, agents introduce themselves as calling from AutocheX on behalf of the company. These services are used heavily by the insurance industry.

Industry reaction to follow tomorrow. Please stay tuned to www.glassbytes.com and AGRR magazine for details.
