System & User Flows

Field Service Workflow

The field service workflow is the core operational execution process. It governs every step a technician performs on-site — from pre-inspection to ADAS calibration to customer sign-off. The process is enforced digitally via the Technician Mobile App.

Non-Negotiable Steps: Pre-inspection photos, urethane application per AGRSS protocol, ADAS calibration (if applicable), SDAT communication, and post-installation photos are mandatory checkpoints. The app will not allow work order submission without all required fields completed.

StageRequired PhotosPurpose
Pre-InspectionExisting damage, VIN plate, current glassLiability protection; documents pre-existing damage

Post-InstallationGlass seated, interior view, exterior viewQuality assurance; warranty claim support
ADAS CalibrationTarget setup photo, calibration tool screen, certificateOEM calibration record; liability documentation

AGRSS Urethane Application Protocol

  1. Inspect and clean pinchweld surface — remove all existing urethane, primer, and contamination
  2. Apply auto glass primer to bare metal areas; allow to flash off per manufacturer spec (typically 5 minutes)
  3. Apply glass primer to glass frit border; allow to flash off
  4. Apply FMVSS-compliant urethane in a continuous, uniform bead — no gaps, no bridging
  5. Set glass into opening within open time (typically ≤ 10 minutes depending on temperature)
  6. Check alignment on all four sides; adjust before urethane skins over
  7. Apply masking tape to hold glass in position during cure
  8. Calculate and communicate SDAT based on temperature and urethane type
