How Stronger Financial Controls Recovered Lost Revenue and Protected Margins Across Four Locations
What happens when a growing automotive repair business expands faster than its financial controls?
A multi-location automotive repair company operating four stores under two corporate entities was experiencing increasing operational complexity. As customer volume grew, visibility into receivables, inventory, and cash flow began to weaken.
-
Fleet payments were delayed.
-
Vendor payments lacked structure.
-
Inventory margins were eroding without clear visibility.
Even more concerning—large fleet payments were being deposited into a former owner’s account due to outdated system information, resulting in nearly $26K in unrecognized revenue.
The business didn’t just need accounting support.
They needed financial control, structured reporting, and proactive oversight.
That’s when they partnered with PABS—and the trajectory shifted.
The results were significant:
-
Recovered visibility into ~$26K in misrouted fleet payments
-
Weekly Accounts Receivable tracking across all locations
-
Zero-Margin reporting to identify and prevent profit leaks
-
Structured monthly payment calendar to strengthen cash flow planning
-
3-Way reconciliation and detailed inventory variance reporting
-
Clear store-level financial visibility for faster decision-making
