• Included in the Bodyshop Operations Manual

This tool is a simple, 3-page document outlining the Estimator’s responsibilities relative to company policies and the coordination with other departments and employees. This job description serves as a compliment to Chapter 2 of the Bodyshop Operations Manual which dedicates over 50 pages of information to the entire process of estimating and selling. Another helpful tool to complement this one is the file titled Administrative Procedures – Step by Step.

The success of the entire bodyshop operation relies on the performance of the sales and estimating staff. This document will help set the foundation for a clear set of expectations for anyone in the estimator’s role. Many times employees need documentation outlining your expectations of them. This helps to minimize supervision allowing you to concentrate on more important matters.
