  • A uniform thread to operate with all major estimating systems
  • Immediate identification of potentially overlooked repair operations and line items
  • Ability to simultaneously import overlooked operations and items into the estimate
  • Support for Individual and multiple shop profiling with customization for unique business needs

  • Establish consistency and uniformity with multiple users as part of the repair planning process
  • Promote self-training for new employees to write complete and accurate

The leading-edge technology takes advantage of the machine learning process and robotics automation to achieve increased levels of user efficiency and accuracy. The SCRS blueprint optimization tool is the first software tool of its kind to perform automated, intelligent tasks previously required to be completed as manual tasks by the end-user.

The SCRS Guide to Complete Repair Planning – Blueprint Optimization Tool will be available via the SCRS website, with intended installation dates starting in the first quarter of 2020. SCRS members will receive discounted pricing.
