Built for appliance repair businesses
PorterBase is designed around the way appliance repair teams actually work — managing parts across a warehouse, multiple technician vans, and dozens of daily service calls.
From the warehouse to the customer's home
Appliance repair teams deal with hundreds of unique part numbers — boards, motors, pumps, heating elements, seals, and more. Parts move from your warehouse to a technician's van, then to a job site. Some get installed. Some come back. Some get damaged or go missing.
PorterBase tracks every step so your team always knows what is in stock, what is on which van, and what happened to every part that left your warehouse.
Parts catalog
Organize boards, motors, seals, and components by brand, model, and category.
Van inventory
See exactly which parts each technician is carrying before they leave for a job.
Return tracking
Record unused parts returned from a job and put them back into available stock.
Damage & loss
Log damaged or missing parts against the technician so nothing falls through the cracks.
Less inventory uncertainty. More operational control.
PorterBase gives field service teams one organized system for managing stock, technician assignments, and the complete history of every part.
Replace disconnected spreadsheets and manual lists
Reduce uncertainty about where inventory is located
Help technicians get the parts they need before the job
