How Dealers, GMs, would-be GMs and Controllers - As well as Service Managers themselves - can measure Service Department Performance to highlight areas of weakness and to formulate action plans for improvement.
With regard to the Service Dept, dealerships have two basic problems. The first is that those in dealership top management positions have little-to-no experience in the operations of the fixed departments. The second problem is that most Service Managers have not been formally trained in how to excel in this unique environment.
