Filling your Idle Bays
Friday, June 24, 2011 at 1:10PM What is the worst picture of your shop? Is it the scrap pile out back, the compressor that continually leaks oil on the floor, that one technician who is always borrowing someone else’s tools because his bay is such a pigsty that he couldn’t find a 5/8” wrench if he had to, or is it the customer bathroom that looks more like a biology project?
I’d wager to say, at the end of the day, it is a picture of empty bays in your shop. Those bays that not only aren’t earning any revenue right now, but they may be a drain on your bottom line because all space costs money.
What if you had atool that allowed you, your service writers and your technicians to see where those idle areas were in real-time, allowing you to make a plan to fill those with work, maybe work that you had scheduled for next week that you could call and bring in today.
Imagine that customer who gets the call and hears that we can take care of him today rather than next Tuesday. He can have the car fixed by the weekend and be back on the road. And we can now work to fill that space he had originally scheduled for next week.
MotiveLogic allows you to do just that. With real-time dashboards that let everyone in your organization see the “opportunities” to keep those wrenches turning.
MotiveLogic is an On-Demand software service that helps you immediately identify and capitalize on opportunities, better use your assets, and grow your organizational bottom line.
