Episode Synopsis

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode David Boyd, Six Sigma Black Belt, emphasizes that defined processes and systems are essential for shop efficiency and growth. Every task follows a process, whether recognized or not, and “rapid toggling” (doing the same job differently each day) leads to chaos. Key Insights: Define Processes: Ask “Why do you do it that way?” to uncover gaps and create consistency. Use DMAIC: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control, establish “normal” and fix what’s “abnormal.” Apply Lean Thinking: Reduce wasted motion and idle time (e.g., proper tool placement, faster approvals). Link KPIs to Action: Observe workflows directly (“management by walking around”), not just reports. Commit to Continuous Improvement: It’s a loop, not a one-time fix. For MSOs: Scaling requires standardized systems and local accountability. The payoff: higher efficiency, stronger customer experience, productive technicians, fewer mistakes, and sustainable growth.
