TCS Technologies introduced a paperless work order entry feature as part of its TreadTracks retreading system at the 2013 SEMA Show/Global Tire Expo (booth #42229).

The TreadTracks system, which manages the retread process from the time the tire is picked up through the finished delivery, is an enterprise grade system handling operations from 1 to 100+ locations and gives visibility as to how to most efficiently manage a retread plant, according to TCS.

Paperless Work Order entry is a mobile solution allowing for immediate entry of tires into a system, whether it be on the road or at the facility. The mobile entry feature allows for work order entry by customers before the retreader arrives on site, according to the company, which added that retreaders can now arrive to a customer location with a printed work order already entered into the TreadTracks software system. Retreaders also can create a digital document with easy retrieval and reprinting or review at a later date. Mobile work order entry also includes the ability to accept signatures on screen, the maker added.

“We identified a need not being met in the retread space and have delivered a seamless solution for today’s leading edge retread companies,” said Barry Reese, TCS president. “Our retreaders are very pleased with the way this new feature streamlines their processes.”
