Problem

Key workflows including parts ordering, job tracking, and invoicing were heavily manual. Communication gaps and inconsistent tracking created delays and reduced profitability.

Solution

Rather than building custom software, I evaluated available industry tools and selected a solution that aligned with the shop’s operational model. I handled configuration, workflow alignment, and in-person implementation. The focus was adoption and process discipline, not just installing software.

Outcomes

  • Improved job flow visibility and tracking
  • More consistent invoicing and reduced delays
  • Higher operational throughput with existing staff
