Distinctive Systems has released an electronic job card for our Vehicle Maintenance System. This not only allows your workshop to become paperless, but also goes way beyond what can be achieved with the original paper document.
The job card is implemented as a web page running in a browser on a laptop or tablet device. Inspection and maintenance items can be ticked off as they are completed plus any faults and work done can also be recorded item by item.
Costs incurred, parts used, additional work, notes, brake test results and PDFs can be recorded directly into VMS from the electronic job card. It also records start and completion dates and times, and can be signed off electronically.
The electronic job card is hosted on your existing in-house network. The only cost you will incur is for the installation of an ordinary wireless access point in your workshop.
VMS itself is a workshop management package specially designed for coach, bus and truck operators. The software provides defect reporting, statutory inspection planning, scheduled and unscheduled maintenance activity management, history recording, tyre management and workshop control.
Combined with our award winning and free of charge Driver Walk-around Check Mobile App, VMS offers a start to finish solution for maintaining your fleet and meeting all current statutory requirements.
VMS is registered with the DVSA for participation in the Earned Recognition pilot.
