ADAS Decision Calculator

Run the in-house vs. sublet math on your own shop

The worksheet I use with clients weighing an ADAS build. Plug in your repair orders, capture rate, in-house share, and kit price. Get your opportunity pool, stage threshold check, and equipment payback, with the cycle-time lever built in.

Your ADAS-affected job count based on your actual repair volume
Stage 2 vs Stage 3-4 threshold check: does your in-house volume justify the build?
Equipment payback at your capture rate and in-house share
Cycle-time lever: models the cash value of days saved if you are capacity-bound or competing on speed
Adjustable inputs throughout, pre-filled with the example shop from the Playbook
