Michigan, United States – Bodyshops can now manage production through AutoSpot, BASF’s new digital production management tool for technicians and managers to track every part of a repair moving through their shop in real-time.
Launched in 2022, AutoSpot is a separate entity that works in any body shop regardless of paint line and shows the status of every car as it moves through the repair process. The software reduces time spent searching for items in the shop, which BASF says can save technicians at least one to two hours per day.
The newsletter says that AutoSpot can locate items such as tools and keys within 30 seconds or less, using Bluetooth signals and special wall readers. Additionally, real-time updates can reduce the number of production meetings dedicated to tracking vehicles’ repair status. Furthermore, digitization might create a more efficient workflow in a more familiar medium for technically inclined
workers.
Allegedly, BASF says the use of AutoSpot impresses younger people during recruiting efforts.
“Whether it is eliminating chaos, increasing customer satisfaction, or optimizing shop production, AutoSpot is the tool that can deliver each of those experiences,” said BASF.
