Digital Vehicle Inspection

What are Digital Vehicle Inspections?

For as long as auto repair shops have been around, mechanics have been doing inspections. For the vast majority of the years vehicle inspections have been done on paper. Rarely do you hear about DIGITAL VEHICLE INSPECTIONS. So what are they? And, how in these times of social distancing; as well as more attention being paid to not going anywhere when you don’t have to, how can you get your vehicle inspected in a safe and sanitary manner? The answer is Digital Inspections. Digital inspections are performed by our techs using a tablet to record results about your car or trucks diagnostics. The inspection results are placed into our shop management system. This software stores the results about your car or trucks recommendations based on the customer profile.

 

WHY NOT JUST USE PAPER?

For years paper inspections were a great way to get the job done. There was no other way. The biggest issuer with paper inspections is that no two inspections are created the same. There was no standardized way for the inspection to be put into the system. So, while one tech may focus on one certain aspect of the vehicle and write it up his way. Another tech was doing the exact same thing another way. It created a very inconsistent customer profile, and was not the most efficient thing when it came to customer time spent in store.
