When one operation appears, check for the related operation your shop expects.

Wheel replaced → require four-wheel alignment

Insurance / DRP rules

Add DRP requirements and check that the saved DRP guidelines are followed for the right insurer.

Also included with Estimate Playbook is Match Estimate

Match Estimate

Stop matching insurance estimates and supplements by hand.

Upload the shop estimate and insurance-approved estimate. Match Estimate shows what insurance removed, adjusted, or added so the estimator can make those changes without finding every difference by hand.

Learn how estimate matching works

Without Match Estimate

Compare both estimates line by line, find each change, and then enter it into the estimating software.

With Match Estimate

Work from one organized report while updating the shop estimate to match insurance.

The Collision Lens Match Estimate screen with separate uploads for the shop and insurance estimate PDFs

Use the report as the estimator's matching checklist.

The report shows each insurance change while the estimator updates the shop estimate. It also preserves removed items that may need to be addressed on a later supplement.

  • Know what to remove, adjust, or add in the shop estimate.
  • Work through parts, labor, materials, and other charges.
  • Keep a record of items insurance removed.
