How to not only increase productivity & profit but also reduce stress.
As a collision repair professional, have you ever felt completely overwhelmed? You might not expect to hear that most of the stress and chaos is avoidable by getting back to basics.
Dave Luehr and his team have studied the effects of a handful of high-leverage actions that eliminate the majority of the chaos. In other words, if you do these few things, you work less and accomplish more!
There are three main operational components:
- Work In Process,
- Repair Planning, and

You can completely transform the atmosphere in your shop with effective WIP management, an emphasis on repair planning accuracy and a strong parts SOP!
Bring your team to this workshop to not only learn together, but build an action plan together. People support what they help create...
