For the second time, Cycle & Carriage Bintang Berhad (Cycle & Carriage) achieved a perfect score in Daimler AG’s stringent ‘Centre of Competence’ certification for its Batu Caves Body & Paint (B&P) Facility. While the Johor Bahru and Bukit Tengah facilities scored 98 percent and 96 percent respectively.
This certification is another feather in the cap for Cycle & Carriage as it continues its year long 120th anniversary celebration.
Obtaining the ‘Centre of Competence’ certification involved an evaluation on Cycle & Carriage’s workshop equipment for both, body repair and paint areas, auxiliary material, repair processes and administration practices. To remain up-to-date with the latest automotive innovations and technologies, Cycle & Carriage employees undergo regular upskilling training at the Mercedes-Benz Malaysia Training Academy
