The Value
of the Technician
In the labor market of today, a company's biggest
asset has truly become its employees. With the
severe shortage of available labor, the recruitment
and retention of employees is paramount
to success. As shops struggle to fill open vacancies
the problem becomes having enough billable
hours to create a monthly revenue stream
that is profitable.
The modern technician is looking for a shop that
provides great pay, a stable future, and the best
working environment possible. It is imperative
for shops to offer the technician a shop with the
most modern and up to date equipment, making
their job easier and safer. Nate Weston, a technician
at Gray Diesel in Lincoln, NE explains, " when
our shop went to Gray's WPLS mobile column lifts,
high rise component jacks and other new equipment,
I had my doubts, I thought changing the
way I worked would slow me down, what it actually
did was make my job at least 75% easier and
I am now getting twice the work done in a day. "
This comment illustrates how new equipment can
ROI itself in a shop. By allowing a technician to get
more done in less time a shop is able to produce
more throughput with its existing staff. Also, Dave
Hunt, the Service Manager at the Lincoln shop,
explains recruiting new technicians is an easier
task when they walk in and see the modern equipment.
The moral of the story is do not overlook
how your shop's jacks, lifts and component jacks
effect the recruitment, productivity, and safety of
your technicians. Gray Manufacturing Company,
an American manufacturer of professional shop
equipment is available to help you make sure your
shop equipment is up to industry standards.
