Torque Stock: Local technological system for inventory management in mechanical workshops.

Abstract

In small and medium-sized automotive businesses, optimal inventory management has become essential for maintaining organization and profitability. However, many auto repair shops in emerging economies still operate using manual systems, leading to disorganization and financial opacity. This article presents the development of Torque Stock, a local software created to meet the needs of the Torque Bikers workshop in Bogotá. The system automates product registration, profit margin calculation, and the generation of strategic reports. Using an incremental development methodology, a tool was created that optimizes administrative control without relying on cloud infrastructure, offering an accessible and robust alternative for the digitalization of microbusinesses.
