Auto Repair Shop Intake System Redevelopment

Redevelopment of an aging auto repair system: electronic intake orders, connected parts inventory, and WeChat notifications for car owners.

Background

A repair chain had run a standalone desktop system for years: no data sharing between stores, no mobile access, and owners repeatedly walking to the front desk to ask about progress.

Solution

Redeveloped in place while preserving the existing data structure: intake orders went electronic with a repair progress board, parts inventory was connected to work orders, and owners got WeChat progress notifications plus e-invoices.

Key Features

  • Electronic intake orders and progress board
  • Parts inventory linked to work orders
  • WeChat progress notifications for owners
  • Online confirmation of e-invoices
  • Multi-store data consolidation
  • Fast plate search across repair history
  • Repair packages and session card sales
  • Auto purchase suggestions on low stock
  • Automatic technician commission calculation
  • Plate-recognition intake (hardware interface reserved)

Results

The upgrade completed without replacing the original system or disrupting daily operations. The waiting experience improved noticeably, and parts inventory error rates dropped.
