Kah Systems, part of the Manheim Group, has achieved Thatcham accreditation for its Kah:Inspect electronic appraisal system.

The software runs on Windows mobile devices and uses Thatcham data to calculate repair costs in line with the organisation’s industry standard.

Dean Lander, Thatcham accreditation manager, said: "It is important that wherever and whoever uses Thatcham Data to calculate repair costs can prove that this data is used correctly and calculates in compliance with the accreditation criteria.

"The accreditation has been awarded for Kah:inspect after rigorous evaluation of the output proving that the displays are accurately calculated as specified within the accreditation criteria."
