Creating
the opportunity for profit from each job is the ultimate goal for
every repair specification produced. But how is this achieved?There is only one way of repairing a damaged vehicle and
that's the “
Right Way
”.It automatically follows that there is only one price to repair
that vehicle, and that's the “Right Price”. The right
way is defined by
the correct method of repair, and the right price is defined because
of the correct method of repair. The method must always
come first. Get this right and your winning the battle for profit.
Getting it wrong, means you've lost the war
Many
of the clients we have worked with, initially believed that the
Vehicle Damage Assessor ATA accreditation was the defining point, the
ultimate destination of their professional development.Whilst this accreditation is vitally important, as it provides
evidence to the level of competency attained by the individual, it
should not be seen as the finishing point, but as part of a continual journey
of professional development that ensures you have the core skills and processes
required for a successful career
To
this end, my associates and I, have developed independent training programs to help the
client achieve their ATA whilst covering the reasoning of 'Profit
from Process'
thus ensuring that they establish the correct method of repair
from the outset, an attainable target for all of the stakeholders in
their repair process.
