Use Cases·Rebuild & Overhaul Use Cases

One rebuild project, every shop, one invoice.

Heavy equipment rebuilds fall apart when every shop quotes separately, adds its own margin, and gets reconciled by hand. RebuildIQ turns a rebuild into one templated project — intake, shop estimation, supervisor review, commercial quoting, parts, time, and billing, all on one record.

RebuildIQ was born from direct experience: while at SAP, our founders built a rebuild-center solution for Caterpillar’s roughly $50M Australian rebuild business — and hit the exact wall RebuildIQ solves. That motivated building it properly, as a product.

Where rebuild workflows break

Four ways the current process costs you margin.

Every shop adds its own margin

Each shop quotes separately without visibility into the others — margins stack on top of each other, and the total can nearly double the true cost of the repair before the customer sees a price.

Parts across shops coordinated outside any system

Hundreds of parts across multiple shops on the same rebuild are tracked in spreadsheets and phone calls. Parts ordered by one shop are invisible to another until a collision happens on-site.

Estimates built from scratch every time

No project templates, no reuse of historical job data, no standard BOM. Every rebuild estimate starts from a blank page, and every estimator does it differently.

Master and child work orders reconciled by hand

The overall rebuild and each shop's work exist as separate jobs with no native link — reconciling them by hand at billing is a multi-day exercise every time.

What the original Caterpillar rebuild-center problem actually looked like.

Seven-tool SAP-era workaround
✕A builder, an advisor, a price developer, and Excel/Word for the final quote
✕Every shop added its own margin — nearly doubling the true repair cost
✕Hundreds of parts across multiple shops, coordinated outside any single system
✕Master and child work orders linked and reconciled by hand
✕The eventual SAP solution is still used today — for pricing only; execution runs on Excel
RebuildIQ
✓One project, built from a template, the moment work is released
✓Each shop submits its own versioned part list and labour for supervisor approval
✓Sales sees every approved package's cost in one view before quoting margin
✓Parts requisition and job scheduling post to SAP automatically on approval
✓Time, expense and billing tracked to the same project — master and child work orders linked natively

Reception & Intake

Every rebuild starts as a released project from a template — not a blank quote.

1
Log inbound equipment

Equipment arriving at the shop is logged with fault details and urgency.

2
Create from a project template

Known work types start from a pre-built project template instead of a blank estimate.

3
Preliminary estimate

A first-pass estimate is captured at intake, before any shop gets involved.

4
Customer intake

Customer and machine details are captured once and carried through the whole project.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is RebuildIQ?

RebuildIQ is ServiceCPQ's multi-shop repair and rebuild management platform — turning a heavy-equipment rebuild into a single templated project, from intake through billing, instead of coordinating a builder, an advisor, a price developer and Excel across multiple shops.

How does multi-shop coordination actually work?

Each shop assigned to a project submits its own bill of materials, parts, and labour as a versioned package for supervisor approval. Sales sees every shop's approved cost in one view, instead of collecting quotes from each shop separately.

Does this replace SAP?

No — parts requisitions, job scheduling, and cost postings flow to SAP automatically on approval. RebuildIQ replaces the disconnected builder, advisor, price-developer and Excel tools that otherwise sit between the shop and SAP, not SAP itself.

How are master and child work orders handled?

The overall rebuild is tracked as a master work order, with each shop's package as a linked child work order — so the whole project, and every shop's contribution to it, stays connected instead of being reconciled by hand.

Where did RebuildIQ come from?

It's built from direct experience solving this exact problem at Caterpillar's rebuild center in Australia, where a roughly $50M rebuild business ran on seven disconnected tools and still couldn't coordinate multiple shops on one job without the cost nearly doubling.
