In this podcast episode, Chris Cotton from Auto Fix Auto Shop Coaching explores facility productivity in auto repair shops. He discusses the potential and actual productivity of facilities, using a Midwest shop with six bays and a southeastern shop with 24 bays as case studies. Cotton emphasizes the importance of maximizing current facility productivity before expanding. He suggests that many shops operate at only a fraction of their potential and offers insights on increasing technician efficiency and optimizing bay usage to enhance profitability.
