Solera Autodata and Digidentity launch first complete MVIS-compliant solution for independent workshops in Australia

Solera Global Corp. 3 mins read

MELBOURNE, Australia, Oct. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- From November 2025, Solera Autodata and Digidentity will introduce Australia’s first end to end MVIS-compliant solution for independent workshops. This integration enables access to data for hybrid and EV vehicles in an efficient, as well as compliant manner.

MVIS requires car manufacturers to share technical repair data with independent workshops. Only appropriately qualified technicians can access safety-critical information.

Solera Autodata and Digidentity streamline compliance through the Autodata Workshop Application and Digidentity Wallet app. Garage owners register their businesses, invite technicians to verify their identity and qualifications, and access to restricted content is then enabled.

“MVIS is about access to data but also about safety-critical data being accessed in a controlled manner,” said Chris Iacovou, Managing Director APAC at Solera Autodata. “Our partnership with Digidentity ensures this is done efficiently.”

Fred Slikker, Managing Director at Digidentity, added: “We’re providing workshops a fast way to prove technicians are qualified for advanced systems. It’s about increased safety standards and trust.”

The solution will also be made available in New Zealand. Controlled access to EV repair data reduces risks and builds customer trust.

"Autodata’s partnership with Digidentity sets a new standard for compliant, easy access to EV data," said Salim Arkadan, Director, Product Management at Solera Autodata.

The solution will be available to independent repairers across Australia from November, 2025.

Self employment falls as more choose benefits of employment

Self-employment has fallen sharply to a 20-year low, according to new e61 Institute research that suggests a fundamental shift in how Australians work and run businesses. The share of Australians who are self-employed fell from a 2002 peak of 20% to just 14% of employment today, as the appeal of wage jobs, including higher pay and benefits like superannuation, continues to grow. Sole traders dropped from 12% in 2002 to just under 9% today while employing businesses fell from 7% in 2002 to less than 5% today. The study finds the decline reflects changing labour market incentives rather than a…
