Jan. 12, 2017—The Society of Collision Repair Specialists (SCRS) announced on Wednesday that modifications were made to its “Complete Guide to Repair Planning.”
The updated guide has new content including frame setup considerations.
The free guidebook, available on the SCRS homepage, lists hundreds of procedures that might not be found in estimating services’ labor times. For that reason, it could be overlooked by an appraiser or estimator.
“This document is intended to be used as a guide to develop and maintain processes performed in your repair facility, and serves as a reminder of steps that may be performed during the repair process,” the guide states. “This document does not suggest, or promote, that your shop can or should charge for each item listed; and is only intended to be a reminder for repair operations that are performed in your facility.”
