With MCA Garage

Track your interventions and sales in detail

Running a garage or repair shop requires a certain degree of organisation to function well. Between managing vehicles and customers, various appointments and interviews, you need to be able to keep track of all the files in progress at the same time, while making sure you let the customer know at the right moment.

The exclusive use of paper or an inadequate management tool can quickly affect the management of a garage. Data is unstructured, contracts are lost, vehicle information is filed in the wrong place, duplicate appointments are made, customers are not notified on time….

With MCA Garage, garage and repair shop management software, you can manage your garage or workshop from A to Z in a simplified way.

Scheduled services or appointments, vehicles in the workshop, on loan or sold, equipment in stock… more visibility on the various operations of your technicians, sales and administrative staff, as well as on the existing fleet of vehicles.

Data is stored in a single platform and automatically transferred to the right place as you operate, so you don’t have to enter information twice.

Administrative work is reduced, vehicle and customer data is structured and you gain in performance.

Better visibility

Garage management from A to Z

Vehicle and parts management

Whether you run a car, motorbike, truck, boat, new or used vehicle garage or repair shop, you organise your inventory by distinguishing your cars, motorbikes, vans, etc. by type, make, model, condition and other characteristics.

You create a detailed sheet for each vehicle including technical and commercial data such as description, price, vehicle dimensions, number of seats and engine characteristics.

The product sheet allows you to view various information about a vehicle such as its status, repair history or ownership history as well as vehicle-related documentation such as roadworthiness tests, road permits, etc.

You also create and manage product sheets for your spare parts.

Commercial follow-up

With an overview of your garage’s activity, you can easily monitor your sales, repair and maintenance services and vehicle rentals.

Schedules allow you to plan the schedules of your employees as well as repairs and maintenance (in and out of the workshop) according to the availability of your mechanics.

You monitor in real time the tasks assigned to each workstation and the progress of the various operations. You can also check the availability of your loan or rental vehicles and view the current loans / rentals on the schedule.

Your customers can make online reservations for any maintenance and repair service based on time slots and available technicians.

All information related to a customer (personal data, contract data, invoices, history and reports of interventions, complaints, …) are gathered in a file for an efficient follow-up of the customers.

The software integrates the management of your sales, rental or maintenance contracts as well as any administrative document related to the sale or purchase of a vehicle, such as transfer declarations, purchase declarations or registration applications.

Stock monitoring

You manage procurement according to stock levels and requirements for vehicles or spare parts, monitoring supplier orders, deliveries and payments.

The software helps you determine the ideal minimum stock based on demand and delivery times. You set up stock alerts to be notified if the minimum stock of an item is reached.

Repairers can access supplier item catalogues and place spare parts orders directly from their mobile devices.

The garage management software keeps a complete history of purchases made.

Invoicing

The software simplifies the invoicing of your services, vehicles and spare parts. The costing of mechanical or bodywork repairs is calculated automatically according to the parameters in the database.

You can quickly draw up each quotation or invoice with a professional layout predefined by you.
Maintenance contracts can be invoiced as annual subscriptions. Recurring invoices are managed automatically by the software.

VAT is integrated into the software and can be configured according to current standards.
Unpaid invoices are managed within the software, with automatic alerts and reminders.

Product presentation in MCA Colibri

Employee management

You manage all HR aspects within the software: wages, time, vacations, absences and documents.
Resumes, certificates, contracts, diplomas, etc. are attached to the employee file in electronic form.

The technicians can plan their interventions themselves or consult the schedule that has been established. The schedules and tasks of administrative employees can also be organised and shared within the software.

Hours can be recorded by time clock, fixed hours or manual entry. Wages will be calculated according to actual and overtime hours, salary base and applicable charges, etc.

Leave balances are updated as leave requests are validated. The garage management software integrates the monitoring of public holidays, holidays and absences.

Accounting

Entry of entries is simplified by automated processes. Financial information is automatically transferred to the accounting system, so you don’t have to perform numerous manual operations.

All accounts, inputs, outputs and expenses are integrated into the software.

VAT management is included, allowing you to prepare a compliant VAT statement in three clicks.

Report and analysis

Activity reports allow you to analyse the information collected by the software. You can format them as you wish to remove the elements that interest you.

You will be able to observe your workshop’s high and low seasons to ensure that your stock is supplied for each period, evaluate sales performance by car or motorbike model, etc., or analyse your customer trends to increase customer satisfaction.

Communication with customers

Program automatic e-mail and/or SMS notifications for your customers.
