Efficient Body Shop Optimization
FOR OUR MOST VALUABLE PARTNERS
Efficient Body Shop Optimization The road towards the dynamic and profitable growth of your company
MVP Business Solutions® is specially developed for our Most Valuable Partners. The purpose of the MVP tools is simple. We want to help your business grow and strengthen your position in the market. The way we achieve this is by making an individual analysis of each body shop in order to identify areas of improvement. We then produce a high impact action plan that will include the relevant MVP tools for your workshop. This means that each MVP project will be different, as it will be designed to address the individual pain points and bottlenecks in that specific bodyshop. Take the first step towards a more lean and efficient future by learning more about the tools and your possibilities
High quality is no longer enough In todays refinish market it is no longer enough to produce high quality work if you want to increase your revenue and competitive advantage. Elements like optimal usage of the resources, an efficient workflow and continuous fundamental analysis are also key success factors. When these are combined with the most innovative ways of working, you will have all the factors to achieve your growth strategies that will push your business forward.
Lets take the first step together Because every workshop is different, we will apply different MVP tools in every optimization project.

These are used to produce tactical action plans and track the improvements made along your journey.
The MVP approach makes the difference
Benchmark report
5s workshop optimization
We gather the most important KPIs in your workshop and compare them to the industry standards to identify where you will find the largest potential for improvements. In addition, you will get a monthly report so it will be possible to track if the implemented changes are taking you workshop in the right direction.
5S Workshop Organization is an important foundation to any LEAN initiative by providing an organised working environment that enables an efficient workflow. Having completed this exercise you will save numerous hours of searching per week because you will know exactly where everything is and it will be placed where it makes most sense.
Value Stream Map (VSM)
Paint Shop Throughput analysis
In any repair workflow, you will have a bottleneck that hinders you from getting more cars through the workshop. But do you know where it is in your workshop? By making a Value Stream Map analysis, we can identify where the bottlenecks are in your production and provide clear guidance on how to increase your throughput.
Quick Changeover is a critical component of any Lean workshop. We will focus on the importance of the processes in and around the spraybooth. The outcome of the analysis and the subsequent actions is to ensure that the spraybooth is not acting as a bottleneck in the paintshop.
Iaudit of your workshop
Mesura – check your repair costs
The iAudit is a technical audit of your workshop and it will highlight those technical areas that offer the greatest potential for improvement. Based on the findings in the iAudit, we will create an individual action plan that is guaranteed to ensure an increase in the overall productivity and profitability of your work shop.
Mesura gives you detailed information about your material consumption and it covers both the paint and the non-paint areas. You will get an indepth report into your material percentages and a detailed explaination of where repair costs are above the norm
LEAN optimization
Round table meetings
We help workshops optimize their productivity by reducing their cycle times and implementing the continuous improvment approach.Once we have jointly achieved this, you will see two very positive impacts: You will be able get more cars through the workshop and the customers will get their car back faster.
The roundtable meeting is a great opportunity to meet others from the repair aftermarket and share experiences and best practies in the trade. You get a unique opportunity to create a valuable network with others that also want to improve and create positivechange. Meetings take place twice a year.
