Fixed Operations Consulting

Connect the work being promised with the people, parts, and information available to complete it. Consulting spans parts and service operations, with scheduling and shop-flow optimization as a specialty.

What we can help you accomplish

Scheduling & shop-flow optimization

Align appointment promises and work-in-progress with technician skills, bay capacity, job readiness, approvals, and parts availability. Plan how current status updates should change the work queue.

Parts availability & inventory

Review fill rates, backorders, special orders, reservations, aging stock, and inventory variances. Connect parts readiness to service scheduling and counter or retail demand.

Data analytics & reporting

Turn available sales, service, labor, inventory, and workflow records into useful measures: cycle time, work in progress, capacity, parts waits, and exception reporting.

Custom apps & automation

Scope practical apps for shops and dealerships: scheduling boards, estimate approvals, parts-status tracking, follow-up queues, and internal reporting. Build around the team's actual workflow.

We design this around your operation. Real-time updates depend on authorized, available data connections; exports and defined update intervals can support an initial pilot.

Discuss your shop flow

Pricing

Quoted by deliverable

Choose a focused workflow review, analytics project, custom app, or implementation engagement. Discovery, integrations, software costs, training, and continuing support are itemized in the scope.

Turnaround & scheduling

A confirmed window before work.

Discovery and delivery milestones are set after the process, data quality, access, and integration needs are reviewed. Custom tools can be planned in stages, with a defined pilot and acceptance checks before broader use.

Platforms & operating environments

  • Dealership & independent operations
  • Public-sector shops & fleets
  • Parts counters & retail stores
  • Spreadsheets, exports & approved APIs

DMS, shop-management, scheduling, inventory, and accounting connections are assessed individually. Real-time updates require an available, authorized data source; batch exports or manual updates may be the practical starting point.
