The Management Information Console is a bespoke Software Application that stores both Methods and Images on a per job basis, electronically, and provides all of the management reports and audit trail required to maximise work flow efficiencies in a modern Accident Repair Centre.
The Management Information Console was created by Dave Willett M & M�s Bodyshop Director specifically to overcome the time wasted by V.D.A.�s and Shop Floor Operatives on Collating, Managing, Storing and Reporting on Repair Methods and Images collectively or on a job by job basis.
The winner of The Business Innovation Award will be announced at The Awards Presentation Dinner to be held at The Stoke on Trent Moat House on Tuesday 23 March 2010.
( Just to explain )
I started a project in 2003 to give users access to images and documents which originally localled on one or two pc's from industry standard software.
Needing a way to give users the maximuminformation efficiently, I tried my hand at Visual Basic. With loads of help from many people on Woody's site, I reached my goal.
Not writing for any kind of profit, I have not taken any payment whatsoever but a great deal of enjoyment in taxing my brain cells.
Our industry insists on working to BSi standards where a method of repair must be given to the operative at the work bay.
For example, to replace two doors on medium sized vehicle, a method of repair could be 60 or 70 pages which should be printed!
My application enables our company to not print a single page... so I saved some tree's also !!
So I just wanted to say thank you...
