Garage Software Implementation Checklist

Go-Live Steps Owners Can Delegate

A garage software implementation checklist keeps rollout boring in the best way — predictable. Use this before go-live to confirm data, people, payments, and compliance are ready.

Go-Live Risks To Eliminate

  • Service catalogue not imported before first job
  • Staff logins and roles undefined
  • M-Pesa paybill not tested on a real invoice
  • eTIMS credentials not validated in staging
  • No backup owner when front desk is on leave

Pre-Launch Checklist

  • Import services, labour rates, and common parts
  • Configure roles for owner, advisor, technician, cashier
  • Run test jobs through intake, billing, and payment
  • Validate fiscal receipt on a test invoice
  • Print quick-reference cards for front desk

Frequently Asked Questions

How long before go-live should we start the checklist?

Start one to two weeks before your target date. Most items are configuration and training — not custom development.

Who should own implementation inside the garage?

Assign one owner plus a front desk champion. They do not need to be technical — they need authority to enforce the new intake and billing flow.
