Which numbers need you today, which units are ageing and where is the compliance exposure? Ask, drill down and decide, on one platform.
What Spectra solves
- Which numbers need me today?34 KPIs in five categories, with targets and red, amber and green thresholds, month-to-date, year-to-date or custom periods and per-user drag-and-drop layout.
- Which units are getting old?A stock report with table, board, timeline and ageing views and Excel export, plus market valuations to test a new price against.
- Where am I exposed on compliance?The NCC assessment pack collects complaints, handover overrides, provenance, registration and towing in one place, and it supports NCC Code of Practice requirements.
Less time on paperwork, more time with customers.
Follow up everyone, build the quote with the part-exchange and finance on it, and hand over with the paperwork done. Spectra moves the deal on when something real happens.
What Spectra solves
- Following up everyone.A pipeline of Enquiry, Quoted, Ordered and Closed Won that advances from real events, with a deal owner and collaborators, tasks and follow-ups, and mail drafting from the thread.
- A quote with a part-exchange, finance and road tax takes an age.Versioned quotes with the PX deduction, catalogue parts, ad-hoc items and reusable bundles. Road tax and the first-registration fee appear as no-VAT disbursements. On Professional, illustrative HP, PCP and lease finance is calculated live on the quote.
- The customer has to come in to sign.Contracts go out for e-signature by email, or by SMS with Twilio connected on Professional, or are signed in person. The online quote lets the customer accept or reject optional lines and pay a deposit once DNA Payments is connected.
Keep the workshop full and get approval for extra work.
Habitation season fills the diary and extra work needs the customer's approval. Spectra plans the bays and collects the approval. The planning board and health checks come with Professional.
What Spectra solves
- The diary is full and someone is always double-booked.A booking wizard and job templates, and on Professional a diary and a live drag-and-drop planning board by bay and day, with a team schedule.
- Nobody knows where the technicians' time went.An offline-first technician app for clocking on and off, manager corrections, timesheet approval, and efficiency and utilisation analytics.
- Extra work needs a yes, and the customer will not answer the phone.The customer approves estimates online, and on Professional a health check report with photos and video lets them approve work and sign from their phone.
Margin VAT, the stock book and MTD in one ledger.
Margin VAT, stock books, two-person supplier payments and a sync to your accounting package. A double-entry ledger built for the motor and leisure trade.
What Spectra solves
- Margin-scheme VAT and the stock book kept in Excel.Margin-scheme VAT, VAT returns, a statutory stock book and a Sage 50 VAT export.
- MTD submissions are a monthly scramble.VAT returns can be submitted to HMRC through Making Tax Digital once you connect your HMRC account.
- Purchase invoices to key, remittances to match.On Professional, AI Document Import reads an invoice or remittance, lets you review and edit it, and records a purchase invoice or payment on approval.
