What we did

After conducting an initial analysis, our team focused on delivering value to Auto Service Repairs through streamlining and automating key processes with Salesforce:

Experience Cloud Portal

We implemented the Experience Cloud Portal to serve as a pivotal connection between the CRM data and garage representatives. This enabled technicians engaged in car repairs and maintenance to access external data, track progress, and provide additional insights on the go. Furthermore, the portal was optimized for mobile usage, ensuring that delivery and collection drivers could seamlessly interact with it.

Results:

  • Enhanced accessibility of CRM data for technicians.
  • Improved tracking and provision of repair and maintenance insights.
  • Optimized mobile interface for delivery and collection drivers.

Vehicle Damage Tracking

Prior to vehicle collection or delivery, we incorporated a feature allowing drivers to capture multiple photos of the vehicle directly from their mobile devices. These images are instantaneously uploaded to Salesforce. This process not only serves as a comprehensive documentation mechanism but also facilitates detailed damage tracking. To further bolster transparency, drivers have the flexibility to include comments wherever necessary.

Results:

  • Comprehensive vehicle documentation through photos.
  • Meticulous damage tracking for enhanced accountability.
  • Increased transparency with the ability to annotate and comment on vehicle photos.

External Web Service Integration

We enabled automatic data retrieval for specific cars based on their plate numbers. The task was too complex to be accomplished with declarative tools, so we used the APEX code to automatically fill in the fields based on data retrieved from an external service UK Vehicle Data after the user entered vehicle plate numbers.

Results:

  • Always up-to-date database thanks to automatic data retrieval from an external source.
  • Eliminated common data entry mistakes, ensuring reliable data entry and enhancing its integrity.
  • Improved overall efficiency, allowing the personnel to focus more on customer service.

Web-to-Lead Integration

We improved the integration between Salesforce and Auto Service Repairs' two WordPress websites by using the WPForms plugin, streamlining lead capture and management.

Results:

  • Streamlined lead capture and management.
  • More effective lead generation process.
  • Improved conversion rates.
  • Increased revenue for the business.

Drive Connect Bug Fixes

We redesigned existing declarative automations to eliminate errors and ensure seamless integration with Salesforce Data Model, allowing Auto Service Repairs efficient file management, document generation, and automated workflows for enhanced team collaboration with Google Drive.

Results:

  • Efficient file management.
  • Improved document generation.
  • Automated workflows.
  • Enhanced team collaboration with Google Drive.
