IP Explanation

Audatex does not provide procedures or times for set-up and measure due to the wide range of measuring/straitening devices used in the automotive repair industry. . This is covered in the Database Reference Manual section 4-2 Labor Exclusions. “Setup of a vehicle on a frame machine, dedicated bench, or other measuring / straightening devices. Pulling time is not included (Standard Manual Entry M31 is available)”. Therefore any operations that are included or not included in the Set-up and Measure would need to be determined by the estimate preparer and agreed upon by all involved parties.
