Repairability is no longer optional. The question: endure it, or turn it into an advantage.

EU rules summarised for information only: check how they apply to your products with your legal team. The right to repair raises the bar on quotes, lead times and spare parts: Repair helps you prepare for it, and turn it into a growth driver.

What the law requires, Repair turns into value. Three returns on a single platform.

01 · LOYALTY

A repaired customer comes back

Every breakdown becomes a brand touchpoint, tracked on WhatsApp, not an anonymous service ticket. A washing machine back in working order is a customer who comes back for the matching dryer.

02 · REVENUE

Recurring after-sales margin

Quotes, parts, labour, home visits for large appliances: repair generates revenue and extends the value of the installed base. Every job carries a clear quote, the parts used and the applicable guarantee.

03 · TRACEABILITY

Proof at every step

Every step is timestamped in an immutable log. Parts, photos, guarantee extension: the record builds up repair after repair, ready to be shown.

The application

One console to run your entire after-sales network.

Repairs in progress, SLAs, quotes, workshop and home technician performance: head office sees everything in real time, across every banner and every country, with no spreadsheets and no blind spots.

  • Consolidated tracking of every repair, from diagnosis to collection
  • SLA alerts before a lead time slips
  • Quotes, parts and guarantees tracked on every job

How it works

From head office to the customer, one controlled chain.

Where workshop tools stop at the repair itself, Repair orchestrates the whole journey: head office, network, home or workshop, customer.

Pillar 01

A tailored entry point

In-store drop-off for small appliances, scheduled home visits for large appliances. The right channel for the right appliance, without complicating your organisation.

Pillar 02

The network, under control

In-house technicians, approved repairers and home service providers, scored on performance. Centralised management, multi-banner, multi-country.

Pillar 03

The customer, reassured

Real-time updates on WhatsApp, quote and payment online via a secure link sent by WhatsApp. No app to install, no calling back to ask how the fridge repair is going.

Remote diagnosis

AI pre-qualifies the fault before the technician travels. Fewer wasted visits.

Suggested technician

Repair suggests the right technician based on area and skills; your team approves.

Quote prepared

Parts, labour and lead time costed: the quote goes out in one click.

Catalogue & parts

The right component, at the right time.

More than a catalogue: what makes a repair succeed on the first visit, and what feeds your sustainability commitments.

Parts catalogue

Purchase price, selling price, OEM or third-party suppliers: a single source of truth for every spare part.

Parts linked to the repair

The technician picks parts from your catalogue or their own: quote and history stay accurate.

Repair rather than replace

Every documented repair feeds your sustainability commitments: parts replaced, appliances back in service.

Decentralised stock

Parts stock tracked at every repairer in the network, to limit stock-outs.

  • Parts catalogue with unique SKU
  • Configurable purchase and selling prices
  • Parts selected on every repair
  • Quote costed from the parts
  • Retailer or repairer catalogue
  • Parts attached to the product history
  • Decentralised stock management at repairers
  • Parts consumption history per repair
The difference

A classic workshop tool, or an after-sales OS?

A classic appliance after-sales setup

  • Built for an independent repairer

  • No combined home + workshop view
  • Quotes and parts re-entered by hand
  • Customer relationship = a service ticket

Your product categories

One platform, all your appliances.

From washing machines to toasters, from approved networks to multi-brand manufacturers. Every category has its own constraints. Repair adapts to them.

Large appliances

Washing machines, fridges, dishwashers, ovens. Remote diagnosis before any travel, home or workshop repair, SLAs tracked.

Small appliances

Vacuum cleaners, food processors, coffee machines, kettles. In-store drop-off or shipping to a workshop, repair or exchange, quotes and parts handled at scale.

Manufacturers & multi-brand

Approved repairer network, manufacturer warranty and product traceability at European scale.

Air conditioning & heating

Scheduled maintenance, home visits and long-term tracking of the installed base.

Traceability

Every repair leaves a trace.

Parts, guarantee, impact: every completed job feeds the product history, with no re-entry.

Step 1

Repair completed

Replaced parts, before/after photos, cost and labour are closed out by the technician.

Step 2

Timestamped history

Every job is written to an immutable, dated log, available for guarantee claims and inspections.

Step 3

Guarantee extension

The legal guarantee extension is calculated, the appliance status is updated, the customer history is completed.

Step 4

Appliance back in service

The closed repair avoids a replacement: the appliance goes back into use, with its full history.

Beyond repair

Repair is the beginning, not the end.

Repair is one module of the ZIQY circular OS. Add replacement appliance rental, second-hand or refurbished whenever you are ready, on the same platform, with the same login and the same data.
