TAG Auto

Vehicle Inventory. Fully cloud based. Hosted and supported by NBS.

TAG Auto is the dealership and vehicle-yard edition of TAG. Every unit gets a UHF tag bound to its VIN and stock number on intake, so a branch can walk its whole floor in one pass with a handheld instead of a morning with a clipboard. The dashboard shows the floor as a live map of zones, ages every unit by days on floor, and raises an exception the moment a vehicle is missing, in the wrong place or standing too long.

TAG Auto by NBS
Features

What TAG Auto does.

Encode a windscreen or hanger tag on intake and bind it to the VIN, stock number and model

Walk the floor and count it in one pass with the RFID handheld

Live map of the branch: showroom, workshop, wash bay, storage and off-site zones

Days-on-floor ageing on every unit, so slow stock is obvious

Exceptions raised automatically: not seen, wrong zone, standing too long

Movement history per vehicle — where it has been and who moved it

Stocktakes, intake documents and inventory per branch

Reports exported as real Excel or PDF, with a full audit trail per user

Benefits

Why teams choose TAG Auto.

✓ Benefit

A floor count in one pass

Stocktakes that used to take a morning with two people take one walk with one handheld.

✓ Benefit

Find any unit in seconds

The map and the handheld's find mode point at the car instead of sending someone walking.

✓ Benefit

Ageing you can act on

Days on floor sits on every unit, so slow stock gets a decision instead of a dust layer.

✓ Benefit

No more 'who moved it'

Every movement carries a person, a zone and a time.

Security & compliance

Built to be trusted with your data.

Every NBS application signs in through Orbit: one account, hashed credentials, roles per person and per organisation, and a shared session across the suite. Data is hosted in ISO 27001-certified data centres over encrypted connections, backed up, and covered by the POPIA operator addendum in our subscription agreement. Specific to TAG Auto:

Audit trail on every encode, move and stocktake, with the user who did it

Per-branch access so a site sees its own floor

Exception log kept separately from the inventory record

Roles for scanner operators, managers and administrators

Standalone database per customer, hosted and backed up by NBS

Fully cloud based

Nothing to install. Nothing to maintain.

TAG Auto is hosted by NBS and delivered as a subscription. Updates, backups, monitoring and support are part of the service, and it works from any modern browser or the NBS app where one is provided.

  • Dashboard in the browser; scanner app on a rugged Android RFID handheld
  • Fixed readers at gates and doorways report movements without anyone scanning
  • Scans taken offline keep their booked time and sync when the signal returns
  • Import your existing stock list from a spreadsheet to start

Subscription models

How TAG Auto is priced.

TAG Auto is sold as a hosted subscription, priced once-off implementation plus a monthly subscription per branch, per handheld and per fixed read point. Every plan includes hosting, backups, updates and support. Hardware is added on rental with replacement cover, and once-off items cover setup and training. We quote per client after a short scoping call, and adding another NBS application later only needs an updated schedule, not a new agreement.
