KanBo Use Case: Statutory inspections (AU, SP, § 57b StVZO) in the Automotive Industry

Carrying out statutory inspections is a crucial task in the automotive industry. Whether it’s AU (general inspection), SP (safety inspection) or § 57b StVZO (emission control), these inspections help ensure that vehicles meet legal and safety standards, and prevent accidents on the road.

KanBo makes carrying out inspections simple, with powerful tools that help automotive electricians to manage inspections from start to finish. Users with Microsoft Office skills will feel right at home with KanBo’s easy-to-use interface.

Here’s an example use case for carrying out an AU inspection using KanBo:

1. Create a new card for the vehicle being inspected and add all relevant details such as make, model, and license plate.

2. Assign the card to the automotive electrician responsible for the inspection.

3. Add a checklist to the card to ensure all necessary tasks are completed during the inspection, such as checking lights, brakes, and emissions.

4. Attach any relevant documents, such as the vehicle’s logbook or repair history.

5. Schedule a due date for the inspection to ensure it’s completed on time.

6. Once the inspection is completed, mark the tasks in the checklist as done and add comments to the card to document any issues found during the inspection.

KanBo’s comments feature makes it easy for automotive electricians to collaborate with other team members during inspections. They can use comments to communicate with colleagues about issues found during the inspection or ask for clarification on specific details.

For example, if an inspector finds an issue with the vehicle’s brakes during an inspection, they can add a comment to the card alerting the mechanic responsible for repairing it. The mechanic can then respond, asking for clarification on the issue or requesting more information about the vehicle’s make and model.

KanBo also makes it easy to filter out comments from other card messages and activities, ensuring that users can quickly find the information they need.

In conclusion, KanBo is an ideal tool for carrying out statutory inspections in the automotive industry. With its easy-to-use interface, powerful collaboration tools, and integration with Microsoft Office applications, it’s an excellent platform for managing tasks, collaborating with colleagues, and ensuring that vehicles meet legal and safety standards.
