Michael Bradshaw opens up about the way they do things at their very successful shop in Hickory, NC - K&M Collision. He taught a class on how to stop estimating and start repair planning. He feels that people lack a thorough repair process at every level so he shared how K&M does things.
Some things he shares:

• They have verification processes in place so the next person in the process is responsible for signing off on the previous process. This creates a check point as the vehicle goes through the repair.
• They also have 150-200 photos of the vehicle through the process for verification, any issues, etc.
• K&M sells on the repair process and doesn't do "estimates"
• They communicate and educate the customer on the repair

Their process that they do not deviate on is:
1) check-in the vehicle
2) pre-measuring the suspension
3) performing the pre-scan
4) map the vehicle
5) complete disassembly of the vehicle
Michael will be teaching this course again with the SCRS lineup at SEMA
