Fleet Maintenance Software for Construction Shop Managers
Control work orders, mechanic schedules, parts usage, PM status, fault-code follow-up, and repair history from one fleet maintenance workflow built for construction equipment teams.
Shop management
One workflow for the shop. From request to closeout.
Work Order Control from Request to Closeout
Keep repair work structured from intake to completion. Shop managers can assign work, track status, record labor, attach parts, review notes, and close work orders with the repair record tied back to the asset.
Assignment control: Route open work orders to the right mechanic based on priority, workload, and equipment need
Repair documentation: Capture labor, parts, notes, photos, inspection findings, and completion details on the work order
Closeout visibility: Review status changes, work history, and completed repairs in one record instead of paper tickets or text threads
Mechanic Scheduler for Daily Shop Planning
Daily shop planning depends on knowing which jobs are unassigned, which mechanics are loaded, and which repairs are blocking equipment availability. The Mechanic Scheduler gives shop managers a clearer way to plan work by day, status, mechanic, and priority.
Unassigned work visibility: Surface open work orders that still need mechanic assignment
Schedule control: Move work between mechanics as priorities, delays, and equipment needs change
Workload review: Compare assigned work, repair progress, and mechanic availability before the day gets overloaded
Parts Availability and Repair Cost Control
Ready parts keep the shop moving before the repair starts. Track on-hand quantities, reorder needs, parts used on work orders, purchase activity, and repair cost so mechanics have critical items on hand.
Parts usage tracking: Tie parts consumption directly to the work order and asset record
Inventory control: Review stock levels, reorder thresholds, and parts availability across shop locations where configured
Purchase visibility: Connect parts requests, purchase orders, and vendor activity to the repair workflow
PM Dashboard and Service Backlog Control
Preventive maintenance needs to stay visible before it becomes emergency repair work. Shop managers can review PM status, upcoming service, overdue items, and generated work orders in one maintenance queue.
PM status review: See which assets are in good standing, coming due, or overdue for service
Service queue control: Convert due maintenance into trackable work automatically, straight from the PM list
Backlog visibility: Prioritize overdue PMs against active repairs, mechanic capacity, and equipment demand
Fault Code and Failed Inspection Follow-Up
Fault codes and failed inspections need fast shop review in one place. Route equipment issues into the maintenance workflow so shop managers can decide what needs inspection, repair, dismissal, or work order action.
Fault-code triage: Review fault-code signals and decide whether they require repair action
Failed inspection follow-up: Move failed inspection items into work order activity tied to the asset
Repair prioritization: Separate urgent equipment issues from lower-priority maintenance noise
Repair History and Fleet Cost Visibility
Every repair should improve the equipment record and stay with it after closeout. Review completed work, labor, parts, repeat failures, downtime, and maintenance cost by asset so shop managers can support repair, replace, and redeploy decisions.
Asset repair history: Track completed work orders, recurring issues, parts usage, and mechanic notes by asset
Cost visibility: Review labor, parts, vendor activity, and maintenance spend tied to equipment history
Fleet decision support: Identify assets with rising repair cost, repeat downtime, or weak return on continued maintenance

Prioritize Repair Backlog
See open work orders, overdue PMs, failed inspections, and fault-code issues in one queue so the shop can focus on equipment that affects uptime first.
Plan Mechanic Capacity
Review assigned work, unassigned jobs, repair status, and mechanic workload before the day gets overloaded or critical repairs sit untouched.
Keep Parts on Hand
Track parts used on work orders, stock levels, reorder needs, purchase activity, and repair cost so maintenance work keeps moving.
Stay Ahead of PMs
Review upcoming service, overdue maintenance, and PM-generated work orders before preventive work becomes emergency downtime
Triage Faults and Failed Inspections
Move fault-code signals and failed inspection items into repair review so shop managers can decide what needs work order action first.
Control Repair Cost by Asset
Tie labor, parts, vendor activity, notes, and completed repairs to each asset so repeat failures and rising maintenance cost are easier to review.
Equipment Data Stays With the Repair.
Equipment data and business records can feed the same maintenance workflow. Clue connects OEM telematics, GPS and aftermarket trackers, and ERP, accounting and CMMS systems, and keeps hand-entered equipment on the same record.

Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Clue help shop managers control work order assignments?
Clue helps shop managers manage work orders from intake through closeout. Work can be assigned to mechanics, updated with labor, parts, notes, photos, and status changes, then tied back to the asset record for repair history and accountability.
Can shop managers see mechanic workloads in one view?
Yes. Clue's Mechanic Scheduler gives shop managers visibility into assigned work, unassigned work orders, mechanic workload, repair status, and schedule changes. Drag-and-drop scheduling helps teams adjust assignments as priorities shift.
Can mechanics update work orders from the field or shop?
Yes. Mechanics can use Clue's mobile workflows to view assigned work orders, log labor, add notes, attach photos, update repair status, and mark work complete from a phone or tablet.
How does Clue support parts inventory management?
Clue helps teams track parts used on work orders, stock levels, reorder needs, repair cost, and purchase activity. Where configured, teams can manage parts purchase orders and connect parts activity back to the work order and asset record.
Does Clue support Gearflow for parts procurement?
Clue supports Gearflow parts workflows where configured, helping shop teams connect parts sourcing and vendor activity to maintenance work. This gives shop managers better visibility into parts requests, purchasing activity, and repair delays tied to parts availability.
How does Clue help with fault code management?
Clue helps shop managers review fault-code signals, daily fault-code activity, and equipment issues that may need maintenance action. Fault-code follow-up can be connected to open work orders or repair review so the shop can prioritize urgent equipment issues.
What happens when a failed inspection creates a repair need?
Failed inspection items can be routed into maintenance workflows and linked to the asset record. This helps shop managers review inspection-related issues, create repair work, and track follow-up without relying on paper forms or disconnected messages.
Can Clue show repair cost by asset?
Yes. Clue supports repair cost visibility through labor, parts, vendor activity, completed work orders, and Fleet Financials. Shop managers can review maintenance spend by asset to identify repeat failures, rising repair costs, and equipment that may need replacement review.
Does Clue help with vendor invoice review?
Yes. Clue supports AI invoice review workflows that compare vendor invoices against work order scope where configured. This helps shop managers review invoice details before approval and keep vendor cost tied to the repair record.
Can Clue support ERP cost code accuracy?
Yes. Clue can support cost-code workflows by tying labor, parts, tasks, and work order activity to the correct asset and repair record. Where ERP workflows are configured, this helps reduce manual cleanup and improves the accuracy of maintenance cost reporting.
