What is the Workshop App?

The Workshop App allows technicians to receive and input their daily work onto an App that will save to the main RMS software.

  • No more paper forms
  • Information stored more effectively and efficiently
  • Technicians can see their daily jobs on the App
  • You can add photos and notes to each job

How it works

The Workshop App shows all of the workshop tasks that have been allocated to the technician for that day.  There are three types of job;

  1. Labour
  2. MOT
    For both of the above job types, Technicians enter vehicle details, start and end time of the job, job description and labour description.
  3. Safety Inspection
    This allows the control room to keep tabs on progress. When the inspection sheet is sent from the App it will go to the main desktop system for any rectifications to be noted.
    The ‘check items’ are customisable to the items your company want to check.
    The workshop app also has the functionality to allow the technician to clock on or off shift, and access their employee portal.
