The officeOn your routeStep 1 · Copy and paste
The same information goes in twice.
A customer request becomes a quote, then a job, then an invoice. Someone copies the details at every step and checks that nothing changed along the way.

Operations software and automation
When jobs, customer details and updates live in different places, someone has to carry the work between them. Too often, that someone is you. We connect the tools you already use and build what is missing.
Your part is one 60 to 90 minute Fit Call, one written scope to approve, and feedback on working versions. We handle the rest. Your Fit Call is with Gavin Brooks, who has spent two decades in operations: leadership in AT&T authorized and Apple-certified retail, owning a last-mile delivery company, and working in dealership lot operations.
Booked as a Fit Call. The $249 counts toward your build when you sign the written scope within 30 days.

Your team has already found the gaps. We help close them.
The officeOn your routeStep 1 · Copy and paste
A customer request becomes a quote, then a job, then an invoice. Someone copies the details at every step and checks that nothing changed along the way.
The crewOn your routeStep 2 · Phone tag
The office needs to know where a job stands. Your crew needs the latest instructions. You end up passing messages between people who already have enough to do.
The ownerOn your routeStep 3 · Numbers by hand
The information exists, but it is scattered across spreadsheets, inboxes and software. Getting a clear picture means rebuilding it by hand.
You have a business that runs and people who know their work. You need the systems around them to keep up.
Owners and operatorsOn your routeStep 4 · Who we work with
We work with owners and operations leads coordinating people, jobs, vehicles and customers. Your team might be on a dealership floor, at a customer’s property or moving between locations.
We are probably not the right fit if you want a website and nothing else, if nobody owns the process day to day, or if the work is a single task with no systems behind it. If that is you, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
Paddock20On your routeStep 5 · Where it started
Gavin Brooks came to software through operations: selling the connectivity behind phones and tracking devices, owning a delivery fleet and working in automotive. He has been the person choosing the tools and the person relying on them when the day gets busy.
That experience shapes Paddock20. We ask how the work gets done, listen to the people doing it and build around the parts that matter.
Paddock20On your routeStep 6 · A young company
Paddock20 is a young company, and you can check the work. The Test Track runs on a real car and real invoices. Every build starts from a written scope you approve.
You own the app, its credentials and its repository. Our own tools inside it can be used only in that app, and your agreement covers the handover of accounts and licenses.

What you haveOn your routeStep 8 · Configure
Sometimes the right system is already in place. It needs a better setup, a clearer workflow or a simpler way for your team to use it.
Your toolsOn your routeStep 9 · Connect
When your existing systems can handle the job, we connect them and automate the handoffs between them.
What is missingOn your routeStep 10 · Build
When the available software does not fit, we build a focused application around your operation.
The recommendation should make sense for the problem, the people using it and the cost of keeping it running.

Client work first, then the event site and our own tools. Each one has its own page with the detail.

A good starting point is one process that costs you time every week, depends too heavily on one person or keeps slipping between tools.

Your scopeOn your routeStep 25 · Put the recommendation in writing
Within two to three business days you receive a written scope: the approach we recommend, the assumptions behind it and the price. If a build needs more investigation before it can be priced, we say what still needs checking and agree on the next step.

Once you approve the scope, we build to it and test the work against it before your team puts it to use. Ongoing care is available separately.

Not always. Often the first step is to check what your current software can already do, or to connect the systems you use. We start by understanding the work so we can recommend a sensible approach.
Often, yes. We review what you use, how it stores information and what integrations it supports. Access, licensing and technical limits become part of the recommendation.
No. Automotive is an important part of our experience and portfolio. We also build for service businesses with similar operating needs: coordinating teams, moving information and keeping track of work.
Your agreement defines ownership of the custom application, its source code and the access delivered to you. Third-party tools keep their own licenses and fees.
