The Software · Fixed Ops HQ

The daily operating system for your service department.

Fixed Ops HQ is the software John built to make the method stick: one shared number your managers run on every morning, the customer presentation that earns the work, the intelligence to price it right and the warranty work, all in one browser-based system.

What is in it

Five modules. One number.

01

Daily Scoreboard

The one shared number, on a screen in the shop and in every manager’s browser: where the store stands today against the goal, by advisor and by technician. The 4DX scoreboard, live.

02

Customer Presentations

Inspection results shown to the customer by priority of need. We call it R.I.M.: Related, Immediate and Maintenance, so the customer sees what matters first and the advisor never has to sell.

03

Electronic MPI

A multi-point inspection tool that guides the technician through the vehicle and generates the presentation for the customer, with photo and video so recommendations are seen, not just heard.

04

Competitive Intelligence

A survey of what neighboring dealerships charge for labor and the common services, refreshed quarterly, so you know where your rates stand before a customer tells you.

05

Warranty Reimbursement

The warranty work runs inside the software. Your repair orders are already here, so the submission is built from the same data your managers run on. How the warranty work runs →

Retail Pricing Strategy

An output of the software, not another project. From the competitive intelligence, John recommends where your service menu should sit in the local market and reviews it with you each quarter.
