Experience

Customer Service Manager
November 2013 to January 2016Cargo Largo - Kansas City , MO

I write estimates for customers when they come to the shop.
If the vehicle is repairable I am involved in the Pre-Op phase and draft a repair plan.
If the customer is in need of a rental car while the vehicle is in the shop I assist in the procurement of one.
I upload the estimate and photos to the respective insurance company.
If it is a DRP partner then I begin the parts ordering process and followed up by the scheduling of the work.
While the customer's car is in the shop I call them every day to keep them adequately informed of the progress we are making.
Once parts arrive I post the parts against the RO so I can keep track of missing or delayed parts.
If additional damages are found I add them to the estimate as a supplement and contact the adjuster/appraiser and give them the option to re-inspect or allow us to continue repairs.
Once the repairs are complete and the vehicle has gone through the QC checks and clean-up for delivery I do a final walk around to ensure that we did everything that we said we do the correct way.
I then pre-close the file making sure all labor has been posted as well as all parts.
I also take that time to send the supplement, invoices and photographs to the insurance company so they can send a check and close their file as well.
Then I call the customer for delivery and when they arrive I deliver the car to them by going out with the customer to make sure that they have no concerns prior to departure.

I then create a report describing the damages and the status of the claim and send it to the office to be sent to the adjuster of record, the shop and the owner.
I utilized the appropriate parts and follow each individual provider's specific guidelines when creating the estimate.
