A1 ADAS Solutions Reaches CAT Awards Final for Industry Partner of the Year

A1 ADAS Solutions has been shortlisted for Industry Partner of the Year at the 2026 CAT Awards, recognising its contribution to workshop efficiency, diagnostic capability and evidence-led ADAS practice.

With public voting now open and closing on Friday 16 January, the shortlist places A1 in a category that holds particular relevance to how workshops experience the business.

The category itself is a fitting one. Across the UK, bodyshops and garages describe A1 not as a supplier but as a partner they rely on for support, accuracy and the day-to-day realities of ADAS and diagnostics. It aligns with the way bodyshops and garages experience A1’s support every day, as a partner embedded in their operational challenges and trusted to help them navigate increasingly complex ADAS and diagnostic demands.

This recognition follows a year of major investment in national coverage, continued R&D into complex vehicle platforms and a widening customer base as workshops seek trusted support with safety-critical ADAS and diagnostic work. A1’s ‘Do It Right’ philosophy remains central to its work, with accuracy, accountability and real-world technical insight underpinning every service the business delivers.

There is additional cause for celebration with UK national sales manager, Matt Hume, shortlisted for the Rising Star Award. Matt is known for his ability to assess a customer’s needs, design complete workshop equipment setups and specify the right mix of ADAS and diagnostic products without brand bias, ensuring businesses invest in solutions that genuinely fit their workflow and capability.

Iain Molloy, managing director, said: “Being shortlisted as Industry Partner of the Year is a proud moment for us. It reflects the standards we work to every day and our commitment to helping workshops keep ADAS and diagnostic work in-house with complete confidence.

Our team focuses on doing the job right, proving it and supporting technicians through the challenges that modern vehicles present. Matt’s nomination is equally well deserved and highlights the strength and potential of the people behind this business.”

The Industry Partner category is decided by public vote. A1’s nomination reflects the measurable gains workshops report through reduced key-to-key times, faster throughput and improved compliance supported by A1’s combination of real-world experience and equipment expertise.

Voting is open now and closes on Friday 16 January. You can support and vote for A1 ADAS Solutions via the official CAT Awards voting page here.
