External workshop

Owner fleet, shop seats

For fleets that own the trucks and use an external workshop: the owner organization holds assets and operators; shop staff join as Technician seats. Same work orders and evidence — no second product.

What you do in the product

  1. Invite external shop staff as Technician seats inside the owner organization.
  2. Open and assign work orders with photo evidence from the Android companion.
  3. Keep pre-use gates and hour-meter schedules under owner control.

Seat math matters: Pro includes 25 seats; Fleet has unlimited seats. Grouping: External workshop (DP-B).

  • Available now — Web desk + Android companion (same plan)
  • Planned — iOS companion

In short

External workshops service fleets they do not own — the owner org keeps assets and operators while shop staff join as technicians. ForkManager shares work orders and evidence without spinning up a second product.

FAQ

Does the shop need its own ForkManager org?

Not for v1. Shop technicians can sit as seats inside the fleet owner organization when both parties accept shared-tenant access.

Who controls the pre-use gate?

The owner organization sets soft or hard pre-use gates. Failures still open work the shop can pick up.

Is the Android companion a separate SKU?

No. The Android companion uses the same organization and plan quotas. There is no separate companion SKU. iOS is Planned.
