3M completes largest UK RepairStack installation
3M has installed its largest 3M RepairStack Performance Solution system in the UK at Fix Auto Loughborough.
The installation includes a four-cabinet arrangement spread over two bodyshops, housing more than 280 individual products.
The RepairStack solution is intended to enhance product management and reporting, reduce waste and improve efficiency.
In addition, Fix Auto Loughborough has also increased the number of 3M products it uses following in-depth product evaluations and a demonstration of the system’s capabilities.
Complete confidence
Fix Auto Loughborough owner Paul Smith said: “The product trials and the RepairStack demonstration gave us complete confidence in both the system and the products. The organisation, accessibility and performance improvements were clear from the outset.
“The benefits to our production efficiencies were immediate but I was particularly struck by the software’s reporting ability; it really does drill down to the finite details which, ultimately, ensures total transparency when invoicing.
“RepairStack really is a game-changer, which is why I was all in and opted for the ultimate solution for us – a four-cabinet system across our two sites.”
Landmark moment
Lee Roan, strategic accounts and RepairStack sales leader, added: “This installation represents a landmark moment for us. To deliver our largest RepairStack system to date, and to see such a dramatic shift in product adoption following an initial trial, demonstrates the tangible value the system brings to modern repair centres.
“Fix Auto Loughborough and specifically the shopfloor teams have fully embraced and committed to the 3M approach, and the results are already being seen on the workshop floor.”
