Auburn Hills
It is twenty to eight on a Wednesday in Auburn Hills. Your tech is in a customer's basement with the diagnosis done, and the part he needs is on a shelf back at the shop instead of on his van. He heads upstairs to explain, then drives to the supply house and waits in line behind three other contractors.
With a real van stock program, every truck carries the same standard list, built from what your techs actually use on most calls. Parts come off the van in your software on each job, and a restock list is ready before the tech heads home, so the van is full again by morning.
Most jobs now finish on the first visit. Techs stop hoarding parts in their own corners, you can see what every van is worth, and the supply house becomes a planned stop instead of a daily habit.

Fix this in Auburn HillsWe pull your parts history and talk to your techs to learn what really gets used on most calls.
We set a standard list and minimums for each van type and lay out where every part lives on the shelves.
Parts come off the van in your software on each job, and the restock list gets filled at the shop before the next day.
We count vans on a schedule, compare them to the system and trim or add parts as seasons and call types change.
What we report every month: Van stock value by truck, Supply house trips per tech, Parts used but not billed, and Audit accuracy by van.
Start with what your techs use on most calls, not what a catalog says a van should carry. Pull a few months of parts history, find the items that show up again and again, and add the short list of parts that save a job on the spot. Everything else lives at the shop or gets ordered for the job.
Fleet size, the number of van types and the state of your parts data set the price. A shop with a clean pricebook and a few vans is quick. A mixed fleet with no usage history and parts in every corner takes more setup, and ongoing audits add a monthly fee.
Restocking from your own stockroom gives you control and often better pricing. Some supply houses will stage orders or restock vans, which saves shop space but needs a tight list. Many shops in Auburn Hills mix the two, with common items from the shop and bulky items from the counter.
ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro and similar platforms can track stock by truck and build restock lists from the parts used on each job. The feature is often switched on and never set up. Once each van is a real location in the software, the numbers finally mean something.
Techs push back when van stock feels like an accusation. Frame it as making their day easier, with the right part on hand and fewer runs. Keep audits routine and scheduled, and show the results to the tech first.
Easy on day one, but every truck ends up different and parts slip off the invoice.
Great for a big fleet, but it is a salary, and they still need a system to restock against.
We build the standard list and restock routine, set it up in your software and run van audits with your team.
