Abstract: A system for on-site collection of evaluation data at a vehicle repair installation site is disclosed. Generally the system includes a computing tool connected to a database, a workflow operations guiding module that runs on the computing tool, an evaluation module, a comparison module, a data-mining module, a certification module, a legal compliance module, and a repair procedure compliance module. As a vehicle is repaired, the workflow operations guiding module prompts a coach with questions. The evaluation module performs a quantitative analysis of the answers provided by the coach and the comparison module compares the result of the quantitative analysis against aggregated or averaged information. The certification module compares information from the comparison module against predetermined certification criteria and the data mining module identifies correlations, trends or patterns in collected data by the system.

Abstract: A system for on-site collection of evaluation data at a vehicle repair site installation is disclosed. Generally the system includes a mobile computing tool wirelessly connected to a database, a workflow operations guiding module that runs on the mobile computing tool, an evaluation module, a comparison module, a data-mining module, a certification module, a legal compliance module, and a repair procedure compliance module. As a vehicle is repaired, the workflow operations guiding module prompts a coach with questions. The evaluation module performs a quantitative analysis of the answers provided by the coach and the comparison module compares the result of the quantitative analysis against aggregated or averaged information.

Abstract: Bird feeder system including a bird feeder bag of bird feed and at least one downward telescoping section extending from a base of the bag. In one embodiment, two telescoping sections are provided which telescope from the base of the bird feeder bag. Feed such as seeds fall down through the telescoping sections, and into feeding trays through geometrically configured elongated openings on lower opposing longitudinal sides of each telescoping section. A lip of finite height surrounding each of the feed trays provides for the gravity feed attaining a predetermined height within the tray.
