DEVELOP AND TRAIN TO RETAIN YOUR BEST

Collision Center Management

In addition to the normal day-to-day challenges of operating a department within a dealership, collision centers also face some unique challenges. In this course, we will explore departmental production, expense controls, departmental growth, and accountability management. These topics focus on improving collision center profitability, but because profitability doesn’t happen by accident, the knowledge provided in this class will help your manager better understand and implement the components required to operate a profitable collision shop. In this course, students will experience instructor-led interactive discussions, department analysis tools, and classroom lecture. We will utilize Guarantee of Action (GOA) plans to provide a roadmap for improvement that is individualized for each student.

Class Length:2 ½ days

Manage your department by the numbers through NCM Benchmark data and key performance indicators (KPIs)

As a new manager, you are always concerned about what’s right for our dealership and our team. NCM has provided me with multiple tools and suggestions on how to increase various areas of our shop. We are now prepared to work together and improve!

Jamie Swan, Body Shop Manager, H&H Buick GMC

The teacher is not only book smart, but has hands-on knowledge about managing a collision facility. Class participation was a plus for me. Listening to a group of very experienced managers and the way they do things was a major plus.

Jim Fogle, Body Shop Manager, Lakeview Ford Lincoln

This was very useful. All managers and assistant managers should take this class!

Paula Olinger, Body Shop Manager, Evans Motorworks Centerville

The class was very informative and entertaining. With every topic brought up, I was coming up with ways of implementing it into our shop. If you, or anybody in your dealership, needs training this is the place you need to go!
