We’re seeing decreases in our cycle time, increases in quality, and therefore, increased customer satisfaction—which has been huge for our success.

It has really changed our bottom-line. We saw an 11% gain in our net profit in the first 9 months. There's definitely a financial benefit from thinking, from going lean.

With our new repair planning and disassembly processes, we’re able to cut down wasted time. Throughput is higher. Vehicles go through at least 25 - 30 % faster.
Roger Burdick
President of the Burdick Automotive Group
We had the quality reputation of our brand as our chief selling point. Now we not only have that, but the added competitive advantage of faster speed and the lower cost of operations.

We reduced our cycle time by 25% within 6 months of attending PPG’s Green Belt training program.Collision repairers must eliminate all the reasons why vehicles become inactive in the shop during the repair process. It is a lack of repair planning. Cars must be worked on continuously. This is really Green Belt, but it could be used here – just heads up in case you want another one for green belt.

We took advantage of PPG’s practical teachings of Lean Six Sigma, and the results were significant improvements in our level of quality and throughput, at a lower operating cost.
Wiesje Baskerville
Autohound Collision Center, Seattle, WA
PPG’s Green Belt Training gave us the information and perspective we needed to improve our competitive advantage.

My first advice to those thinking of undertaking the Lean Six Sigma journey is to attend PPG’s seminars, go back to the shop and educate yourself by gathering a variety of information and finding resources. It’s a long journey.
