Advancing technologies in automotive refinish products and the equipment available today positions collision centers for exceptional Refinishing Area Optimization. However, even with the exceptional refinish products and the best equipment available, throughput poses some unique challenges for today’s collision centers. The MVP Refinish Area Optimization class takes an in-depth look into the key areas that influence paint shop profitability in a negative way.  We then look at the practical solutions used by progressive collision centers to improve throughput performance and enable vehicles to flow smoothly through the production process. Participants will learn these foundational principles and how to address the key contributing factors that drain production efficiencies and squash profits in our Refinish areas.

The advancement of technology in todays vehicles is changing faster than ever. Exotic materials and methods have become common on practically every make and model vehicle. The proliferation of construction methods and materials is going to continue. Detailed technical repair information from manufacturers on structural, cosmetic repairs, restraint systems, advanced driver assist systems, materials, glass operations and even, interior trim retainers, now exists. Every estimate written needs to be thoroughly researched and carefully documented to ensure the estimate is technically correct following all O.E. repair specifications. PPG MVP Advanced Estimating was designed to assist todays estimator in consistently identifying and documenting a technically correct estimate.

Managing production in a collision center is a full-contact responsibility requiring focused
attention. There are a lot of moving parts in this dynamic environment. Just getting by is
costly. Maximizing resources benefits the entire staff, business, the customer experience and
the businesses market position. Learn critical ways to think about production resources
including; technician efficiency and skill-set, current production capacity, becoming proactive
instead of reactive and logical work distribution are a few examples of topics in this 2-day
course. Participants will experience exercises focused on production scenarios in order
to apply the course learnings. You will learn key areas of focus for maximizing
production potential. When applied these practices commonly translate to increased
revenue, improved customer experience and greater profits.

Collision parts sales represent 40% or more of a typical collision center’s sales volume and are critical to achieving delivery and cycle time goals. Given this contribution to the repair process and profitability, parts must be managed with structure, organization, and critical timing included in solid business processes. This seminar will focus on the key processes of ordering, receiving, storage, delivery, and returns for collision center parts. Additionally, this course identifies the key business management practices as well as lean principles for value stream management, work standardization, and ongoing improvement. 5S Workplace Organization for collision parts will be covered to introduce best practices and improvement techniques to ensure good handling of parts inventory.
