Case Study · 6-Bay Facility

Nguyen Auto Care — Toledo, Ohio

T. Nguyen, Owner

Using Lanekeeper since Sept 2024

The Problem:

Saturday morning rushes were chaotic. When a seized suspension bolt held up Bay 2, the front desk wouldn't find out until the customer walked in expecting their car at noon.

The Solution:

Mounted three iPads on the shop floor. Technicians tap to start and pause jobs. If a job crosses 10 minutes past estimated labor hours, the system pings the technician and queues an automated SMS update to the customer.

"Comebacks and angry front-desk confrontations dropped to almost zero in month one. The board pays for itself on a single saved Saturday job."

Case Study · Commercial Fleet

Vega Fleet & Diesel — El Paso, Texas

Marisol Vega, Fleet Ops

Using Lanekeeper since Jan 2025

The Problem:

Commercial delivery vans and diesel trucks have strict SLA turnarounds. If a truck isn't on the road by 6:00 AM, the fleet client gets billed penalties.

The Solution:

Integrated Lanekeeper webhooks with their dispatch queue. High-priority fleet jobs get highlighted in amber and auto-route to lead diesel mechanics.

"Our fleet accounts love the automatic SMS delivery notifications with our shop name. We won two new regional logistics contracts because of this dispatch transparency."

Fleet Impact Summary

Fleet Accounts: 18 corporate fleets

SLA Penalties: $0 incurred in 2026

Bay Utilization: 93.8% capacity

Active Bays: 8 Heavy Duty Bays
