You’ve probably heard the rumors that the Tekmetric team has been hard at work on something big. Well, we have, it’s finally here, and it’s called Smart Jobs!
Smart Jobs is a revolutionary new way to build jobs in Tekmetric with just one click. Shop management software, at its core, is meant to help you build jobs, and we wanted to streamline that process as much as possible. So that’s what we did!
Your typical repair order may have one or more jobs packaged together. Usually that requires a lot of clicking around to find the right labor rates, and the right parts, sourcing the parts you don’t have, and applying the right markup matrices, over and over again.
That means an extra click for every single step. If you ask us, that’s too many clicks.
The reality is that all shop management systems require far too many actions for what really should be a one-click process.
When we set out to create Tekmetric, we set out to revolutionize the independent auto repair industry. We wanted to simplify, yet maximize the work your shop does.
We’re certain you’ll love how much Smart Jobs does just that.
"Smart jobs is a must have, it'll speed up your service writing by a huge amount.” - Chris Chagnon, COO at the Cardinal Plaza Shell
