Cycle Times Lower than Average – BASF’s Advance Process Solutions (APS)

Dabler Auto Body has always focused on improving our repair process with two goals in mind – shorter repair times and improved customer satisfaction. To achieve our goals, we’ve organized our repair efficiency process around BASF’s Advance Process Solutions (APS).

In the past, after we implemented the new process, we were able to dramatically reduce the length of time it takes to repair vehicles.  We saw an average of  30- 50% improvement over time, and more importantly, a complete understanding of the bottlenecks and other areas in need of improvement over time.


Average Cycle Time: 13.4 days

Dabler Auto Body Cycle Time: 9 days


Yes you’re reading that correctly. With our own APS process in place, we can return your vehicle  substantially faster than the industry average! Dabler Auto Body’s Cycle Times are even shorter for our insurance partners.

Here’s a quick peek at our process:

1) Vehicle Inspection

When the vehicle is thoroughly inspected, your needs and concerns are included.

2) Vehicle is Washed

Any dirt and debris present is eliminated to allow an accurate damage inspection.

3) Vehicle Damage is Mapped

The car is visually “mapped” to avoid confusion during the repair process.

4) Vehicle is Disassembled

Your vehicle is completely disassembled within four hours of drop-off to achieve 100% accuracy on parts and labor.

5) Vehicle Waiting Phase

While we wait for approval and parts to arrive, awe complete various mechanical repairs to save time.

6) Vehicle is Fixed and Painted

The damage to the vehicle is fixed and the vehicle is painted.

7) Vehicle is Reassembled

All parts are put back together, and a final quality check is performed to ensure we meet the highest quality standards.


We Generate LESS Paperwork

Because we do such a thorough up-front discovery, we are able to reduce the need for supplements and rarely miss damage. We may never be perfect, but our goal is to require zero supplements during the repair, saving crucial time.
