Expand on what works

• Not just for Locksmiths• Independent shops

– Use the SDRM for immobilizer, radio and module initialization.

• Dealerships– Why not record security related repairs in the dealership?– Theft Related Parts sales

• Mercedes could streamline their program. Make it easy to purchase parts while at the same time increase dealership and aftermarket security (Protect the vehicle owner)

• Carmakers– SDRM offers the opportunity to increase security while at the

same time increase aftermarket access.

SDRM’s Future

• SDRM was designed to fit almost any OEM application. This flexibility means that the SDRM can expand to take on other tasks.

• Will diagnostic shops join NASTF’s SDRM?– Will Automotive Diagnosticians and High Tech Locksmiths merge into

one category known as Vehicle Security Specialists.

• Is SDRM the solution we need to open up access to all OEM sensitive data required for aftermarket repair parity?

• Will OEMs begin to use SDRM in their own dealerships? It certainly is a way to move the responsibility from the dealer principal to the technician level.

• Will the system become global? Other countries need a solution too.
