INTRODUCTION
Background of the study In the face of increasingly frequent vehicle breakdowns, drivers find themselves grappling with the dual challenges of mechanical failures and Finding vehicle workshop that is near the area. This issue not only poses a risk to drivers but also contributes to increased traffic congestion as damaged vehicles remain on the road longer. Aklan is well-known for its tourism, which indicates a high volume of motor traffic, mainly buses, vans, and tricycles. Road quality, maintenance methods, and vehicle age are all factors that might have an impact on vehicle reliability. The provincial road network consists of national, provincial, and municipal roadways, with varying maintenance quality. Rural roads may be less well-maintained, perhaps resulting to greater vehicle breakdown rates than more urbanized places such as Kalibo, where infrastructure is more developed due to tourism demand. This system will significantly enhance convenience for drivers by providing them time information about the nearest vehicle workshops and available mechanics. By enabling drivers to easily locate and contact nearby repair services, it will reduce downtime and stress associated with vehicle breakdowns. Additionally, this system will help promote local vehicle workshops in Aklan, boosting their visibility and potentially increasing their customer base. Overall, it aims to create a more efficient and supportive environment for both drivers and local businesses.
Objectives of the study Generally the objective of the study aims to develop Fast Fix Specifically to:
- Develop a module of: a) This system allows users and workshop owners to create an account b) This system allows user to input their location c) Browse near and available vehicle workshop d) This system allows users to request services from the workshop e) This system allows user to pay in cash or through online payment method f) This system can allow users to rate the services g) This system allows workshop to input their details h) This system allows workshop to accept users services request
Future Researchers , In order to guide their future research, they can refer to this study. Definition of Terms This includes the operational definition of variables (parameters) and other important terms used in the study that may have different meanings and interpretations in other fields. Conceptual Definition. Repair services, refers to diagnosing, fixing, and maintaining automobiles to restore their functionality and performance. Vehicle workshop, a facility equipped to perform repair, maintenance, and diagnostic services on automobiles. Drivers, are individuals who operate motor vehicles, controlling and navigating them to transport passengers or goods from one location to another.
Operational Definition. Repair services, involve the systematic process of diagnosing, troubleshooting, and fixing defects or malfunctions in equipment or products. Vehicle workshop, is a facility where skilled technicians use specialized tools and equipment to diagnose, repair, and maintain automobiles. Drivers, are individuals who operate motor vehicles by controlling their speed, direction, and overall movement to transport passengers or goods.
business idea is the answer to the needs of the people in DKI Jakarta. Qualitative analysis is used in analyzing non-financial feasibility such as marketing aspects, technical aspects as well as management and legal aspects. Quantitative analysis is used to analyze OT Repair business ideas that can meet community needs and feasibility based on investment criteria. The financial aspect shows the BEP is Rp. 410,636,079, the NPV is Rp. 80,767,898, the IRR is Rp. 13%, a PI of 1.16 and a payback period of 3 years and 3 months. The results of this feasibility analysis show that the OT Repair business is feasible based on market and marketing, technical, and management as well as financial aspects. However, it is not feasible based on legal aspects until the process of establishing the legal entity is carried out. https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/554044991.pdf Vehicle Workshop Scheduling Management System According to: Mascranghe, Antony Brayon The automotive industry in Sri Lanka is shifting slowly toward a service-oriented model with new entrants concentrating extensively on customer experience and consumer data. Associated Motorways Private (LTD) is one of the major giants in Automotive Sri Lanka which offers a reliable, modern, customer solutions. However, the service sector doesn’t operate efficiently in terms of system point of view. There are minor loopholes that may impact the brand value of the company. The automobile service appointment system is very inefficient. The current online appointment is not working properly. The customer must either visit the workshop or call the workshop to make an appointment. If the customer discovers the part replacement requirement that he/she will visit or call the parts division to find out if the parts are available, often the parts may not be in the current stock so that the customer will be disappointed and purchase from competitors. During services, there is a challenge in monitoring the on-going level of progress, because the customer has to contact the service person to determine the level of completion. In addition, the IN and OUT time of the service person is not measured efficiently, as this is a necessary requirement. Therefore, the total time taken for a specific job is not
accurate. In delivering an effective IT solution for the vehicle repair process, it was analyzed through the aid of literature, interviews, and questionnaires, Web application would be ideal for this project and hence the Prototype approach method has been chosen although it will be built up further into a fully functional solution. The implemented version of the 'Vehicle Workshop Scheduling Management System' was reviewed by expert and non-expert users, while further recommendations were rendered to improve the solution. http://dlib.iit.ac.lk/xmlui/handle/123456789/ Local: V-Locate: Development of Web-Based Vulcanizing Shop Locator for 2nd District of Oriental Mindoro According to: Uriel M Melendres, Marlon D Balboa, Mariel G Clementer When traveling, getting a punctured tire is a common and inevitable problem that makes a vulcanizing shop business in demand in the province. Vulcanizing shop repairs flat tires and sells a typical car and motorcycle needs. However, this small business was not tagged in the known navigation application. Thus, the proponents conceptualized a Web-based application locating the nearest vulcanizing shops and motorcycle spare parts stores. The V-locate will not just provide the nearest shops and stores but also the information like the offered products and services. The scope of the map on the said application is only limited to the areas within the 2nd^ District of Oriental Mindoro. https://stepacademic.net/ijcsr/article/view/
