Prevent paint comebacks, prove your labor costs
Track every collision repair job — damage, panels, paint code, labor by phase, and insurance claims — as structured data, not free-text notes. A standalone bodyshop management app for European collision repair shops, with no companion module required.
The problem
Collision work gets forced into generic repair-order tools that cannot capture which panels were damaged versus replaced, the exact paint code used, or how labor split across strip, panel, and paint phases. Once that detail lives in a free-text note, you cannot filter it, group it, or see which jobs are comebacks — so bodyshop managers lose the visibility insurance work and profitability both depend on.
The solution
Collision Repair & Bodyshop Management gives every job a structured record: damage cause, panels, paint code, and labor hours by phase, captured as real fields. Paint code and comeback status are first-class and filterable, insurance claims track estimate versus actual cost, and a customer portal keeps vehicle owners and insurers updated — all standalone, with no garage-management module required.
Everything a bodyshop needs to run jobs and prove costs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Structured Job Records
Damage cause, panels damaged, panels replaced, blend panels, and paint code are captured as discrete fields — not buried in a note box — so every job is filterable and reportable.
Paint Code & Comeback Tracking
Paint code is a first-class field, and a dedicated comeback flag with reason (color mismatch, poor fit, paint defect) makes callback prevention a surfaced, filterable status instead of a guess.
Labor Breakdown by Phase
Record hours separately for strip/prep, panel/body, paint, and reassembly, with a computed total — giving managers cost accuracy on exactly where labor hours go.
Progressive Job Form
The 4–5 fields that drive a job — customer, damage cause, panels, paint code, status — lead the form, with vehicle, labor, insurance, and scheduling detail tucked into clearly labelled tabs.
Auto-Sequenced References
Every job gets a unique, human-readable reference (e.g. BS/00001) the moment it is created, so jobs are traceable and quotable from day one.
Draft to Done Workflow
Jobs move through Draft, Confirmed, In Progress, and Done with a full chatter audit trail of who changed what and when — essential for accountability and insurance disputes.
Insurance Claims & Estimate vs. Actual
Tie any job to an insurer and claim reference, then track estimated cost against actual cost with an automatically computed variance — the data insurance-driven shops need to justify every claim.
Customer & Insurer Portal
Share a job with its customer or insurer and they can follow status, vehicle detail, panels, paint code, and labor summary on a read-only portal page, with a chatter thread for updates.
Filter, Group & Report on Everything
Filter and group jobs by status, technician, customer, month, comeback, or insurance claim — every captured field drives a view, so no data is a dead end.
How it works
