How This Automation Works
Service request received → Professional quote delivered
Capture Service Request Details
Customer submits repair request through web form, phone intake system, or technician enters diagnostic findings via mobile app. System collects equipment make/model, problem description, location, urgency level, and customer contact information.
Retrieve Equipment Specifications
System automatically looks up equipment details from your service history database or manufacturer specifications, including typical repair procedures, common failure points, and recommended replacement parts for the identified issue.
Calculate Labor Requirements
Based on repair type and complexity, the system determines estimated labor hours using your predefined time standards for different repair categories (compressor replacement, leak repair, control system issues, etc.) and applies appropriate labor rates.
Pull Current Parts Pricing
System queries your inventory system and supplier databases for current pricing on all required parts, checks availability, identifies alternative options if primary parts are unavailable, and applies your standard markup percentages.
Apply Business Rules and Calculations
The system calculates total costs including labor, parts, taxes, fees, and any applicable discounts or service contract adjustments. It applies your profit margin targets, minimum service charges, and any location-based pricing variations.
Generate Professional Quote Document
All information is compiled into a branded PDF quote with itemized costs, clear descriptions, estimated completion timeline, warranty terms, payment options, and validity period. Multiple pricing tiers can be included for different service levels.
Deliver Quote to Customer
Quote is automatically emailed to the customer with links to approve, schedule service, or request modifications. For on-site visits, technicians can display quotes on tablets for immediate approval. Follow-up reminders are scheduled if no response is received.
How It Works
Transform your refrigeration repair quoting process with intelligent automation that eliminates manual calculations and reduces quote turnaround time. This system captures service call details, retrieves equipment specifications, calculates labor hours based on repair complexity, pulls current parts pricing from your inventory system, applies your markup rules, and generates professional PDF quotes complete with warranty terms and payment options. Perfect for commercial refrigeration contractors, HVAC service companies, and facility maintenance teams who need to deliver fast, accurate quotes while maintaining consistent pricing standards across all technicians.
The Trigger
When a customer submits a repair request through your website form, phone call logging system, or when a technician completes an on-site diagnostic assessment and enters equipment details into your mobile app, the automation initiates the quote generation process.
The Action
The system automatically generates a detailed repair quote including itemized labor, parts costs, estimated completion time, warranty information, and terms. The quote is formatted as a branded PDF document and immediately sent to the customer via email with payment links and scheduling options.
