Tekmetric is a huge improvement over a traditional paper process for sure. Estimates are easy to draft, orders are easy to create, and work flows easily through the platform as cars move through your shop.

That's because there’s always a better way! Canned jobs in Tekmetric are particularly powerful, saving service writers time by simplifying the process of building job estimates. Less clicks means more time to focus on the customer and offer amazing service while selling even more amazing BG Products.

When you have the right tool that helps simplify your work, why not use them? You wouldn’t use an open-ended wrench when a ratcheting socket wrench cuts the time in half and saves your knuckles.

In our effort to keep growing Tekmetric so running your shop is even easier, our latest update to canned jobs now includes even more canned jobs for BG Products and services right in Tekmetric. Just enable the canned jobs you want to use, and start selling even more BG services right away! 

What are canned jobs?

Canned jobs are pre-saved job templates in Tekmetric that include labor and parts associated with common repair work done.

Instead of recreating jobs you perform on a regular basis, shops can create as many canned-jobs as they like to build estimates in just seconds. Just apply the right canned job and you're ready to send for approval.

In fact, shops find canned jobs so helpful, one shop running on Tekmetric has created over 2,000 customer canned jobs, and even uses at least one canned job per RO. 

The value of canned jobs is clear: making it easier for repair teams to provide customers with the best of the best. 

Simple, efficient, and reliable processes lead to more completed work and happier customers. And as we know, happier customers leads to even more customer retention, and better customer retention increases shop profitability.

In essence, canned jobs can even help you pay for Tekmetric. The profit generated from saving time, closing more repair orders and selling better service can cover the cost of the platform, and then some. 

Just why are canned jobs so powerful for your shop? That's easy:

  • Make your jobs easier by simplifying your workflows for common repair orders into just a few clicks
  • Shorten the time it takes to operate, get estimates built and approved sooner and move cars faster.
  • BG Canned Jobs, using BG products in particular, enable your shop to offer more specialized service options for improved vehicle performance

Tekmetric and BG Products

We’re always looking to work with industry-leading partners so that shops can offer exceptional products and provide high-quality service.

With canned jobs right in Tekmetric, providing exceptional service is easier than ever: it's built into your new standard way of operating.

At the time, Tekmetric co-founder and CEO Sunil Patel explained that “the integration between BG Products and Tekmetric is an industry first and something we’re deeply excited to provide to shops offering BG Services. With Tekmetric, we want independent repair shops to have an easier way to offer canned services and promote the Lifetime BG Protection Plan® to consumers. We’re proud to partner with BG as an exclusive partner and hopeful we can educate many shop owners on how well BG Products simply work."

New BG Canned Bobs Available to Shops
