Digitalization of the automotive repair industry

Overview

The automotive repair and refinishing industry is undergoing a technological transformation characterized by digitalization, automation, and data-driven workflows.

Initial developments focus on optimizing physical workshop operations through advanced hardware and interconnected ecosystems. Companies are implementing specialized compressed air solutions to improve productivity and utilizing digital ecosystems to link various steps in the vehicle repair and painting processes. Industry experts note a move toward “networked business ecosystems” that integrate technology and expertise into seamless workflows.

This evolution has expanded to include a heavy reliance on specialized software for both facility management and technical repairs. Service facilities are increasingly using building maintenance software to manage critical infrastructure, while repair sectors are adopting data-driven methods to handle modern vehicle complexities, such as Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) and electric vehicles (EVs). This shift necessitates greater access to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) service information and real-time estimating tools.
