Abstract:
Systems and methods of the invention relate to identifying a repair facility for a vehicle and scheduling a repair for the vehicle while minimizing a downtime of the vehicle. Embodiments of the invention include receiving a route of a vehicle and a repair via a request for a repair. Based on the request for a repair, an evaluation component can identify a repair facility that can handle or perform the repair defined as well as be within proximity of the vehicle. A repair component can assign a repair facility to the vehicle based on a capability of performing or handling the repair, a geographic distance from the vehicle, or an inventory of parts for the repair.
