Tech Tip: Increase repair productivity

Sept. 4, 2019
When time is money, a comprehensive vendor managed inventory program can help you save time, reduce vehicle downtime, and increase both productivity and profitability.

Repair productivity is greatly increased with organization. This means getting rid of poor storage containers such as boxes, tin cans, and paper bags. Installing bins and storage cabinets and efficiently placed set-ups will reduce your parts retrieval process and create a more organized and functioning shop workflow. Think durable product storage and dispensing equipment, easy-to-read product descriptions and sizes on labels, and backplates for convenient reordering and refilling to keep you organized and saving time searching for parts.
