BAYOUGRID AUTO SHOP SYSTEM
Meet BAS
The BayouGrid Auto Shop System
Tailored for small and mid-sized independent auto repair shops. BAS brings appointments, customers, vehicles, repair orders, estimates, technicians, invoices, payments, and service history into one easy-to-use system.
Built Around the Way a Repair Shop Actually Works
BAS follows a practical shop workflow from the first appointment through final payment. The shop stays in control of the repair order, estimate, technician assignment, invoice, and customer history.
BAS Features
Everything below is already part of the working BAS system today.
Online Appointments
Customers can request service online, choose a date and time, and optionally enter Year / Make / Model or a VIN.
VIN Decode
Decode a 17-character VIN to quickly fill vehicle information and carry it into the customer’s vehicle record.
Customers & Vehicles
Keep customer contact information, saved vehicles, VIN details, mileage, appointments, and repair history together.
Repair Orders
Create and manage repair orders with customer complaints, diagnosis, mileage, technician assignment, bay, and workflow status.
Estimates
Build estimates with parts, labor, quantities, rates, fees, discounts, tax, totals, and approval status.
Technician & Bay Tracking
Create a technician list once, assign technicians from a dropdown, and track which bay each vehicle is using.
Invoices
Generate invoices from approved estimates, make legitimate final adjustments, print invoices, and email them to customers.
Payment Tracking
Record cash, card, check, online, or other payments, track partial payments, and automatically calculate balance due.
Customer History
See vehicles, appointments, repair orders, estimates, invoices, payments, technician, and bay history in one place.
Shop Dashboard
See today’s appointments, vehicles in the shop, approvals waiting, real paid sales, and active shop activity at a glance.
Business Branding
Add the shop name, address, phone, and logo once and automatically use that branding on invoices and printed copies.
Managed Licensing
BayouGrid licensing keeps the software tied to the approved shop installation while keeping business records safe.
One Clear Workflow
BAS is designed to keep the daily process easy to follow without forcing a small shop into a large enterprise platform.
1. Customer requests an appointment
2. Shop confirms the appointment
3. Customer arrives and the shop checks them in
4. Vehicle / VIN information is verified
5. Repair Order is created
6. Diagnosis and estimate are prepared
7. Technician and bay are assigned
8. Work is completed and vehicle becomes Ready for Pickup
9. Invoice is generated and payment is recorded
10. Job closes and remains in the customer’s service history
See BAS Working Live
The BAS management system runs in a private shop dashboard, so we demonstrate it by appointment rather than handing out a shared administrator login. We’ll walk you through a complete test job—from appointment and VIN lookup to repair order, estimate, invoice, payment, and customer history.
Designed for Independent Repair Shops
BAS is a strong fit for small and mid-sized shops that want a professional website and a practical management system without paying for a large enterprise platform they may never fully use.
Website + appointments + shop workflow + invoicing + customer history — all under one BayouGrid system.
