The digital platform to manage and streamline your entire aftersales operation

MecaPlanning is the digital aftersales management platform designed for workshops, dealerships, multi-brand groups and manufacturers, covering cars, motorcycles, commercial vehicles and even marine. It synchronises reception, the mechanical workshop, parts and courtesy vehicles in real time, giving every manager complete visibility and real control over the business.

Cars Motorcycles Commercial vehicles Marine Single-site Multi-site Single-brand Multi-brand Agile businesses Large groups
Site

A clear, instant view

Whether you are a dealership or an independent workshop, all connected staff have a clear, immediate view of every job. They communicate with colleagues in real time, without unnecessary trips or calls, and handovers between departments (reception, workshop, parts, vehicle handover) happen without downtime.
Group & Manufacturer

A shared, standardised tool

For groups, MecaPlanning is a single tool that guarantees a consistent view whatever the brands managed. It lets you set up and manage processes as part of a group strategy, with comparable KPIs across all sites.
End customer

A simple, self-service experience

With appointment booking by QR code, via the dealer’s website or the call centre, end customers are fully self-sufficient. They can track the progress of work on their vehicle at any time, through to its availability, handover and satisfaction survey.

04 / THE BODYWORK MODULE

What about bodywork? 360° management, built into MecaPlanning

MecaPlanning’s Bodywork module is fully integrated into the solution. For garages with a collision repair shop, your teams manage mechanical and bodywork jobs without multiplying tools, sharing the same resources: manufacturer tools, staff, courtesy vehicles and more.

06 / FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why centralise your workshop schedule in a single tool?

Whether you still work with a paper schedule, a spreadsheet or several digital tools that don’t talk to each other, the symptom is the same: information has to be re-entered or checked manually at every step, with a risk of errors and double bookings. MecaPlanning automatically centralises and synchronises all this information, giving the whole team a shared, real-time view, whether you run a single workshop or several sites.
No, and this is a key point: MecaPlanning is not designed to replace your DMS but to complement it. Implementation involves connecting the two systems, with no duplicate entry or disruption to your business during the transition, so your DMS becomes more effective across all aftersales operations.
The Bodywork module is a fully integrated MecaPlanning extension that existing customers can activate instantly, with no set-up fee or additional DMS integration. It provides a dedicated calendar, connection to estimating and assessment tools, real-time tracking and a technician web app.
