Universal Technical Institute (UTI) has 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 ProfitNet as a key technology tool to train its students how to manage a collision repair facility in every aspect of the business, which includes scheduling, production, job costing and financial management. ProfitNet 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.
