Three words from the driver, and the truck’s whole history on the ticket

Draywick Fleet Service is a truck shop we invented. One defect on unit 214 runs from the yard at 6:12 pm to a bay at 7:00 am.

Before: most of a morning

A service writer rebuilt each truck’s history by hand from door-pocket paper and invoice folders.

Now: three minutes

The ticket arrives with the truck’s history on it and the warranty claim already drafted.

Built for a fleet in a hurry

Draywick’s site puts the defect report first, so a driver can file one from the yard in a few words. Each part of the page has one job for the shop.

The top bar is built for the yard

The services, the defect line and the report button, all in reach before anyone scrolls.

One promise, one field

Trucks back on the road, and a field that asks for the unit number and what the driver heard.

Services named the way fleets buy

PM programs, defect repair, wheel ends and DOT inspections, each with one plain line.

Proof from people who run trucks

A supervisor, an ops manager and a shop manager, each naming what changed.

The close covers the boring trust

Every town it serves, DOT records and the after-hours defect line, with the button once more.

Every part of the page leads to the one thing the shop needs: a defect report it can act on.

What happens after the report

It looks up each unit by VIN, matches comebacks to the earlier repair and drafts warranty claims from old invoices for a service writer to approve.

The report finds the truck’s whole file

A driver reports unit 214 from the yard: brakes grinding, right front. Draywick matches it to the truck’s VIN and service file before anyone at the shop reads it.

The repair starts from the truck’s history, not a blank sheet.

The warranty claim that was about to expire

The same wheel end was serviced 11,400 miles ago, and that part is still under warranty. So Draywick drafts the claim from the old invoice, three minutes after the report came in.

A part the shop would have paid for twice goes back under warranty.

Three signatures before the truck can roll

Federal rules need three signatures on a reported defect: the driver, the mechanic who fixes it and the next driver. Draywick collects them in order and keeps unit 214 off dispatch until all three are in.

An auditor can find the whole chain in one search.

The shop opens with the job lined up

Unit 214 is in brake bay 1 with the tech who did the last job on that wheel end, and the parts are on the shelf. The night’s other write-ups are sorted by how urgent they are.

Planned overnight, before anyone unlocked the shop.
