The Challenge of Managing Multi-Location Auto Repair Shops
A leading car rental company operating across the Gulf region faced severe operational inefficiencies in its multi-branch repair workshops. Managing maintenance across multiple locations was challenging due to:
- Disorganized Workflows – No centralized system for tracking repairs.
- Uncoordinated Spare Parts Management – Delays in part availability affected repair speed.
- High Operational Costs – Inefficient resource allocation led to increased expenses.
The company needed a digital solution that could centralize, automate, and optimize its multi-branch repair network.

- Delays in procurement increased vehicle downtime and disrupted rental schedules.
