Universal Technical Institute (UTI) implemented
DuPont
Performance Coatings’ (DPC) ProfitNet Management
System into the Collision Repair and Refinish
Technology (CRRT) training program at its Houston-
based campus. UTI uses the system to train its
students how to manage a collision repair facility’s
scheduling, production, job costing and financial
management.
“DPC’s relationship with UTI is a long-term commitment
to the educational process of preparing graduates for
entry-level positions in the collision repair
industry. We are proud that UTI has chosen ProfitNetTM
as a technology tool to expand their training
capabilities,” said Information Technology Services
Manager Tom McGarry.
“ProfitNetTM provides UTI students and instructors a
way to measure continuous improvement and see the
direct impact lean principles have on speed of the
process and cycle time. For six weeks students see the
results of eliminating the seven wastes, the increase
in productivity, cycle time and the impact it all has
on their virtual paycheck. ProfitNetTM is the tool we
use to document lean training,” said Kelley Lowery,
CRRT Educational Manager, Universal Technical
Institute.
