It all started with a growing waitlist and a question the leadership team couldn’t ignore: how do we scale faster without compromising the service our customers value?
AutoTech Solutions1, a U.S.-based innovator in mobile vehicle repair and maintenance, found a powerful way to build their team through a strategic remote staffing partnership in the Philippines.
This collaboration has been instrumental in driving AutoTech’s rapid growth and boosting operational efficiency, all while helping the company reduce costs and scale with confidence.
The Challenge: Expanding a Mobile Service Model
AutoTech Solutions operates a unique business model wherein certified mobile technicians are dispatched directly to customers’ locations.
As demand surged, the company needed to scale up its support infrastructure quickly—without compromising quality or incurring significant expense increases.
Recognizing the limitations of relying solely on domestic hiring, AutoTech’s leadership began exploring staffing solutions in 2019 to access a wider talent pool. One of their key considerations is to build a remote team in the Philippines.
Why the Philippines?
The country continues to rise as the ideal destination to build a remote team. With its large, English-speaking talent pool and strong cultural alignment with Western business values, the country offered a reliable foundation for growth.
Filipino professionals impressed AutoTech with their work ethic, adaptability, and eagerness to master complex, industry-specific tasks—traits that made it easy to deliver delight to customers across the U.S.
Why Partner with iSWerk?
Beyond a remote staffing provider, the company was looking for someone who could grow with them.
For AutoTech, partnering with iSWerk meant more than filling roles. They understood the unique challenges of scaling a mobile service business. It meant having a trusted ally to help them build their team, reduce costs, and create a remote team in the Philippines that could truly drive real impact.
Building a Skilled Remote Team
The company began with 20 remote professionals handling customer support and operations. Their strong performance quickly built trust with U.S. leadership, enabling an expansion into more complex roles such as scheduling, dispatch coordination, and technical support.
Today, that remote team in the Philippines has grown to more than 70 dedicated members supporting Customer Service, Technician Operations, Fleet Management, and Consumer Relations.
Their deep operational involvement has driven efficiency and allowed the company to drive real impact across multiple business units.
Keys to Success: Alignment, Communication, and Agility
Several key factors fueled the success of this partnership:
Dedicated Performance: The team’s consistent competence encouraged AutoTech that even mission-critical roles could be managed remotely.
Strategic Alignment: A shared vision emphasizing exceptional service and sustainable growth.
Open Communication and Agility: Despite time zone challenges, regular touchpoints and a culture of feedback empowered the team to be better and respond quickly to changing needs.
Exceeding Expectations: The team routinely exceeded targets, expanding their impact across departments.
Cultural Strengths and Business Impact
The partnership showcases the strengths of the Filipino workforce: resilience, collaboration, and a proactive attitude. Their strong communication skills and continuous learning mindset have been vital in helping AutoTech deliver delight through every customer interaction.
This strategic approach to remote staffing enabled AutoTech to scale smarter, maintain high standards, and significantly reduce costs—without compromising service quality. By tapping into top-tier global talent in the Philippines, the business has redefined operational excellence in the auto services sector.
