Calculating YOUR environment
Different then what other IT providers and tools for collision repair shops offer, we perform precise and comprehensive calculations based on your own figures and facts.
We look beyond mere accounting: we measure and calculate what is actually happening in your car body shop on a daily basis.
No benchmarking
Unlike many available calculators, we do not engage in benchmarking or work with averages. We work exclusively with your figures, down to the last decimal place.
We go beyond merely comparing estimates and invoices; we cover everything from purchase and sales invoices to employee time tracking.
We also factor in all unforeseen costs—such as warranties, staff absences due to illness, accidents, or vacation, and other potential events that impact the normal production flow.
