Custom SaaS development for tool management in automotive workshops

The automotive industry moves fast. As the number of new vehicle models grows, repair shops have to manage an ever-larger inventory of tools, and finding the right one quickly turns into wasted time. SEPP.One is the custom B2B software naymspace built to solve exactly that: a cloud platform that gives workshops a clear, reliable handle on every tool they own.

How we built the web app for workshops

To meet the quality standards of the automotive industry, authorized workshops face regular audits that also check the tool inventory. Different vehicle models call for a wide range of special tools, especially in shops specializing in e-mobility or super-sports models, so tool management quickly becomes a significant effort.

This is where SEPP.One® comes in. The software is a new and further development of an established system that has been on the market for over 15 years, now completely rebuilt on a modern technological foundation. That foundation opens up extensive room for future enhancements and ensures long-term sustainability. Every existing customer goes through a structured migration in which their data is consolidated and transferred into the new system, so thousands of workshops can reliably manage several million tools.

A key focus of the build was integrating modern storage and provisioning systems such as Smart Cabinets and Vertical Lift Modules. Through an operating console connected directly to SEPP.One®, tools can be precisely stored, tracked, and retrieved. SEPP.One® creates a seamless link between the digital inventory and the physical tool flow.

Working closely with the SEPPTOOLS project team in the Munich area, we delivered a manufacturer-independent tool-management software solution tailored to the specific processes of automotive workshops and dealerships. Centralized master data management gives every workshop access to a clean, well-structured catalog of special tools and keeps them prepared for the annual manufacturer audit.

A container-based infrastructure rounds out the platform with a flexible setup, rapid deployment, and easy scalability for whatever the industry needs next. This is custom software built and operated end to end, from concept through development to ongoing operation.
