Ashburn, Virginia — May 11, 2017 — BASF’s VisionPLUS University has announced it will hold a session of its Advanced Production Management course on June 6, 2017. The course focuses on three areas: pre-repair planning, scheduling and segmenting repairs to eliminate the barriers to efficient production.
According to BASF, this course demonstrates the most efficient use of people, space and time to increase profits, deliver vehicles faster and increase collision center capacity and customer satisfaction. The course will be held at the Audi Training Center in Ashburn, Virginia.
“We are continuously looking to provide classes to help OEMs increase efficiency, profitability and customer service,” said BASF VisionPLUS Program Manager Craig Seelinger. “Our VisionPLUS University classes help improve efficiencies in the shop, front to back, and they are I-CAR certified.”
Advanced Production Management also meets the Porsche Approved Collision Center (PACC) program training requirement for estimators to attend a Repair Planning course.
“We feel that estimators need business-oriented training to go along with the technical training we provide them,” said Mike Kukavica, Porsche Cars NA Collision Repair Technology Instructor. “Estimators really have a complex job because they need to know how the repairs will be done, how to charge for what is actually being done and the negotiation they must conduct with the paying parties.”
