The job card and the invoice do not match.
Parts used on the floor never make it to the bill. Labour hours are estimated after the fact. The accounts team rebuilds the job from memory at month end.
We equip workshops and service centres with job cards, parts stock, invoicing, and accounts in one system — plus tool tracking and workforce tools for multi-bay operations.
These are the gaps that show up once you run more than a couple of bays.

Torque wrenches, diagnostic kits, and borrowed equipment move between technicians with no check-out. Finding them costs more time than using them.
Attendance is on one sheet, job hours on another. You cannot say what a repair actually cost until someone reconciles both by hand.
Job flow, parts, tools, and labour — connected enough that the invoice reflects the work.
Automen covers enquiries, job cards, parts stock, invoicing, and double-entry accounts — so the sale and the books come from the same job.
See Automen →RFID and BLE on high-value tools and diagnostic kits, with check-out history so missing equipment is a location query, not a morning search.
See IoT Asset Management →VAQT handles multi-site clock-in, overtime, and payroll for workshop teams so labour cost can sit next to the job card instead of in a separate spreadsheet.
See VAQT HRM →Live queues for drop-off, express service, and parts counters so customers and advisors share the same status without calling across the floor.
See Nauba →Start with garage ops, then add tool visibility and workforce where the bay count demands it.
