ServiceCAT® Job Estimating & Quick Lube Software Released

August 4, 2015 (Huntersville, NC)– Andreoli & Associates, Inc. (A&A), tire and auto service software developer, has released ServiceCAT®, a multi-job service estimating and quick lube module that is integrated with the company’s HITS® BPOS cloud based point-of-sale software. The estimating software uses Mitchell labor for job times. Service intervals, both severe and normal, are also included.

“Rather than the service writer having to look up parts from multiple parts vendors’ web sites, ServiceCAT performs those searches simultaneously,” states Mike Andreoli, president of A&A. “All selected parts, labor, and specifications can be saved to an estimate or repair order. Once the customer authorizes the repair, parts from multiple vendors can be ordered with one click.”

Chris Brazzeal of Brazzeal Tire in Tampa, FL has been using a pre-release version of ServiceCAT for more than an month, “My service writer, who has been in the business for years, says that ServiceCAT is hands-down the easiest and fastest estimating system he has ever used.”

Andreoli reports that equally powerful is the module’s vehicle specific oil change function (VSOC). The company states that VSOC helps with loss control as the system automatically defaults to the correct quantity of oil for the vehicle.

Brazzeal attests to the efficiency and savings; “VSOC alone is going to pay for the entire module, so we see ServiceCAT as a revenue generator, not an expense. Plus, with the variations in viscosity and capacities of today’s vehicles, having the vehicle’s specifications and correct quantity listed right on the customer’s invoice has taken on more importance.”
