ESSENTIALS OF FIXED OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT
Monday January 1, 2018
Learners will access prior knowledge from the “Departmental Accountability Through Financial Statement Analysis” course as they segue into the world of Fixed Operations Management. Many of the performance measurements that are not evident from the Financial Statement will be showcased through evaluation formulas which support the “what-to-look-for” theme of this program. Key elements of this course are critical Parts and Service metrics, KPIs, and contemporary best practices. The final group activity is comprised of Repair Order Surveys containing embedded key learning points from throughout the 2-day class where each group will have a different batch of samples to analyze. Learners will be asked to investigate and determine improvement opportunities, develop solutions, and conduct a report-out to exchange knowledge with the other groups. This activity will provide a multiplying effect by exposing learners to numerous situational learning points and interactive discussions for maximum exposure to real-world experiences in a time-effective manner.
