Saying Good Things for an Even Better Reason.
Don’t know what we’re about here at Collision Resources? Don’t take our word for it, go straight to the source: our customers! We’ve gotten great reviews, for a great reason, and we are here to share them with you so you can find your stability in our business!
Let’s discuss factors to consider when looking into our CR Auto Scheduler® - Production and ways it will help you combat the chaos.
Auto Repair Shop Productivity is Key.
“Our production manager can focus on keeping our technicians productive while CR Auto Scheduler® - Production controls the mix of work that we are bringing into our shop.”
“Our facility is more productive now due to the fact that our production stalls are filled with vehicles getting worked on instead of acting as storage spaces for vehicles waiting to be worked on.”
“CR Auto Scheduler® - Production:
- Allows anyone in the front office to schedule repairs accurately and immediately.
- Takes all of the guesswork out of scheduling.
- Has helped us to increase our on-time deliveries by leveling the workload in our shop.
- Has allowed us to utilize our production space more efficiently by providing more consistency in our drop-off vs. delivery ratio.
Has increased our hours produced per RO per day, which directly relates to faster cycle times.”

Shop Scheduling Done Consistently, Every Time.
“CR Auto Scheduler® - Production has improved workflow by equalizing the daily workload. No more in on Monday ..out on Friday. CR Auto Scheduler® - Production reduced the number of “hot” vehicles. Vehicles are not sitting around a few days waiting to be started.”
“No matter who schedules in the job, it is done consistently every time. It seems less busy ..but we are actually getting more done. The hours produced per day have risen since we began using CR Auto Scheduler® - Production.”
“CR Auto Scheduler® - Production is the best product a collision shop could have. It takes the worry and stress out of scheduling. We now bring in and deliver cars evenly throughout the week. The ‘in on Monday-out on Friday’ is over. This has helped us reduce our cycle time and increase our efficiency.”
“CR Auto Scheduler® - Production is very easy to use. We used to schedule manually but could never get a system that worked well. This does the thinking for us and keeps the shop busier without having extra cars sitting around waiting for repairs to begin.”
Brad Shelton, Shelton Collision Repair, Derby, KS
High Collision Center Sales, Higher Rewards.
“It was pretty scary the first week or two (using CR Auto Scheduler® - Production), not seeing the cars spilling out the door on Monday with everyone scrambling to make space for more incoming cars. But at the end of the month, our sales were great and it is getting better every month.”
“In the past three weeks, we have not had a single car delivered late, and our sales were up 12% over the previous month.”
“I’m getting used to the extra space in the shop, everything is cleaner and car moves are a lot easier.”
Van Takemoto, Island Fender, Honolulu, HI
