The challenge

An auto shop spent its day answering "is my car ready?" calls. Orders and vehicle status lived on paper.

What we built

  • Order managementEvery customer order tracked in one place.
  • Vehicle statusEach vehicle's progress through the shop.
  • SMS updatesCustomers get a text when the status changes.
  • Customer recordsCustomers and their vehicles on file.

How it works

  1. Customer drops off a vehicle
  2. An order is opened
  3. Staff update the vehicle status
  4. Customer gets an SMS
  5. Vehicle is collected

Highlights

  • Fewer status calls
  • Customers always know where their car is
  • Built on Laravel 5

Tech stack

  • Laravel 5
  • SMS notifications
