Chicago, Illinois — November 23, 2017 — Kent Automotive has announced the release of a mobile app that it claims will make repair parts tracking and cost recovery easier and faster for collision centres.
Kent Automotive’s PROS Profit Enhancement Tool app is available for Apple’s iPhone and Android devices. It allows users to create complete and accurate invoices directly from their mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets, improves repair workflow efficiency by tracking and costing all consumable products used on a repair, and allows technicians to scan product bar codes with their phones, which automatically enters the items in an invoice.
Featuring a database of thousands of repair supplies, Kent Automotive claims the app “ensures accurate, detailed job costing and a more complete accounting of the materials used in repair processes.”
Customers of Kent Automotive registered with CCC ONE Repair Workflow shop management software (CCC ONE) can send the invoice from the PROS mobile app directly to CCC One for automotive repair claims processing.
“Functionality and ease of use are central to Kent’s PROS mobile app,” said Matt Brown, Senior Vice President of Sales at Lawson Products. “This will further productivity gains for technicians using PROS. Speeding the repair time cycle is a critical competitive advantage for collision centers looking to improve the customer experience.”
