Sherwin-Williams EcoLean workshop offered in Detroit

The EcoLean Level 2 workshop is exclusively designed to educate attendees about maximizing profitability by improving productivity and eliminating waste throughout their facilities. It is an extensive, two-day course that further implements the Sherwin-Williams message that educates shop owners on the connection between environmentally sound business decisions and the reduction of process and environmental waste.

“EcoLean is all about helping collision centers drive profitability and productivity, while reducing their environmental impact,” said Rodes Brown, Manager–Marketing Strategic Programs for Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes.

“The training is structured like a college curriculum and the new EcoLean Level 2 workshop is open to all collision facility owners and managers that have attended Sherwin-Williams’ EcoLean Level 1 workshop.”

Brown noted this previous training was necessary as the Level 1 workshop provides the foundational knowledge that will be needed in Level 2 and beyond. After attending the session, participants will leave the two-day event with tangible tools to increase the quality, production output and profitability of their businesses.

Topics covered in EcoLean Level 2 training include:

• The importance of a full and accurate repair plan in a lean collision facility
  
• The mechanics of an environmental management system
  
• Compensation solutions of lean collision facilities
  
• Marketing and communication tactics for collision facilities
