Car service hours - Program screenshot

Calculation of the cost of services for a car repair station takes a very prominent place in the organization of its workflow. Some service stations prefer to set fixed prices for their services. Others, wanting to carefully control the amount of work provided by each of the employees, and fairly evaluate their effort, use in their calculations a concept known as the standard hours of car service.

What is the standard hour in a car repair service? Simply put it is the total amount of time spent by the car mechanic to repair a vehicle or to provide a different service. Each car service enterprise determines the cost of work hours in accordance with its own internal procedures.

Many novice entrepreneurs, having decided to practice a more complex and precise pricing scheme usually wonder how to calculate the price for a work hour in an auto repair facility. In general, the system of calculations is quite similar to accounting fixed prices, but here the main thing that is being taken into account is the average time spent by a car mechanic to perform the work since usually, all the services provided are well-defined from the very beginning. Calculating the cost of work hours for them is not a really difficult task. This is especially true for those enterprises that specialize in only one class of vehicles.

Of course, it is possible to just download the standard hours for a car service for free off of the Internet and using all the required formulas get the needed result using some general accounting program like Excel. However, there are more advanced and efficient methods for determining the cost of standard hours. It is not particularly difficult to download the standard hours for a car service from the Internet but it is more difficult to do the job efficiently and on time using outdated methods of calculating standard hours such as that. And being able to work quickly and efficiently is still way more important for car service’s growth and development.

The system for calculating the standard hours of a car service is usually quite complex and difficult to manage. Small service stations, typically, refuse to use it altogether, preferring to apply fixed prices for their services. Even for bigger companies with more resources such a process usually requires serious and comprehensive analytics in order to efficiently calculate the cost for standard hours of their employees.

In order for the car service to calculate the cost of the standard hour in the shortest possible time, as well as to determine the cost of all services that are being provided, specialized software is usually used to ensure that the car service hours are calculated qualitatively and precisely.

Some companies look for such applications on the Internet hoping to find something that will suit their business’ needs perfectly well. The selection is huge since the market for that kind of program is really vast. There are lots of accounting programs these days. Any enterprise and business can choose the program that will suit their needs, functionality, and budget. But a lot of applications like these aren’t of good enough quality and it raises the question of how to pick the right one in such a wide variety of choices to pick from.

Pirated versions are copies of legit products that were hacked in order to work for free, bypassing the copyright protection measures, but that does not mean that it’s a good solution to implement in your business. First of all — using such software is illegal in most parts of the world and paying a big fine will not justify saving money on buying the legit software in the first place. Secondly — pirated versions of programs usually contain malicious malware that can destroy or even steal important business data which in return can compromise the whole company. And lastly, even if the first two points are not a concern for your company for whatever reason — lack of updates and technical support certainly will be a nuisance. When using legit software, it is really easy to contact developers in case of a malfunction or when your car service needs certain features that the program does not provide by default.

Using the USU Software it is possible to contact us using requisites on our website, and we will make sure to implement features that you might want, as well as to help you with any complications that might arise.
