Dealerships

Increase the Service department efficiency

The aim of Toolsguard is to help dealers achieve greater efficiency in their shops through appropriate management of their tools.

As a result of the Toolsguard implementation, technicians reduce the time allocated to tool location by more than 50%, significantly increasing productivity.

If a technician loses 10 minutes a day looking for a special tool, that will add up to 40 hours lost per year. At a labor rate of U$S100 per hour that is U$S4,000 of lost revenue per technician. If a service department has 20 technicians those 10 minutes a day will cost the dealership U$S80,000”. Brian Miller- Time Service Consulting

We highlight the four best practices of tool management in the dealership sector

1.Assignment of a Tool Organization Manager: a service manager, a service foreman, or the person in charge of a shop, has the experience, knowledge and leadership and should be the supervisor of the organization of the tools. The role of the supervisor is to establish the system, manage the process and guarantee continuous compliance.

2.Start a maintenance program: A tool maintenance program should be established to ensure that your tools are available and in working condition when needed.

3.Selection of a tool management software: the best system is an application that manages tools inventories in the service department. It should ensure easy and simple registration of tools, allowing all technicians to access the inventory available in all branches.

4.Select the right storage system, and effective tool identification: implement storage systems that allow the best and fastest access to a tool combining, panels, racks, tool boxes and service trucks.
