BODYSHOP COST TOOL · OPERATIONAL COST PER HOUR
KNOW WHAT AN HOUR REALLY COSTS.
OcH is a bodyshop cost tool that calculates your actual operational cost per billed hour using your own company data. It also provides insight into how your workshop zones are being utilised, helping you identify capacity issues and predict potential bottlenecks. No benchmarks. No industry averages. Your figures, your operation, your real cost.
THE PROBLEM
YOUR NUMBERS
DON'T TELL THE WHOLE STORY.
Revenue, hourly rates and accounting figures only tell part of the story.
Without a clear view of your real operational cost per invoiced hour, it becomes difficult to understand where money is being made, where capacity is being lost and how operational decisions affect profitability.
Hidden costs
Overheads and indirect costs are easily overlooked.
Capacity
See where available hours and resources are actually being used.
Your data
Your financials, workshop structure, people and productive hours.
Your real cost
The operational cost behind every invoiced hour.
NO AVERAGES.
NO ASSUMPTIONS.

OPERATIONAL COST PER HOUR
YOUR BUSINESS.
YOUR NUMBERS.
OcH calculates the operational cost of every invoiced hour based on the actual financial and operational reality of your bodyshop. Instead of looking at one isolated number, the calculation connects how your workshop is structured, what it costs to operate, how your team works and how available capacity is used.
