About Us
EBDC Auto-Technics Consulting P/L trading as EBDC Auto-Technics was originally established in August 2010 primarily as an automotive training and consulting organisation. With the passion for training and life-long learning, we provide services to various Registered Training Organisation catering to international and local students.
In June 2019, however, a business opportunity to own and operate an automotive service and repair workshop came. With the transition and additional set-up done, we opened our doors to the public in August 2019, and ever since the business has quickly made a name for itself as a quality repairer of vehicles throughout Melbourne’s western suburbs, helping customers in Sunshine, Braybrook, Footscray, Tottenham, Ardeer, Deer Park, Derrimut and beyond.
Specialising in general mechanical and electrical repairs, tyre fitting and wheel balancing for all makes and models of vehicles, we are glad to help whoever visits the workshop, whether they drive a late model vehicle or a classic from the 60s.
As a VACC Accredited repairer, we comply with all VACC equipment, training, and workmanship standards, so when you see the orange sign at our workshop, you have a guarantee of premium quality, backed by the Victorian Automobile Chamber of Commerce.
mission statement
Our mobility, and our ability to function in today’s world, is dependent on owning a vehicle. If we own a vehicle it follows that we can reach our destination relatively faster. However, nowadays dealership repair and maintenance comes with a hefty price tag. At EBDC, we understand this and we have a desire to help by offering alternative solutions.
EBDC Auto-Technics was established with the spark of an idea; to empower our customers to actively participate in solution building and provide a transparent, cost-effective service and repair experience comparable with the dealership; while leading the way for the most preferred and trusted Independent Repairer.
Our Managing Director is well trained in Dealer and Distributor operations since he has an extensive experience working in these very fields. As such when customers come to EBDC, we can truly replicate the dealership experience, without the exorbitant price. Our mission statement embodies our commitment to you.
our philosophy
At EBDC Auto-Technics, we share your wants and needs to maintain your vehicle in good running condition so the driving journey is worry-free. We will provide you with a service and maintenance that will make you appreciate and love your vehicle even more. With us, there is nothing to be worried about because we make it Simple, Better and Possible.
Simple
We make an effort to avoid technical jargon. We make it simple for you by using practical concepts familiar to you to explain the concerns of your vehicle.
Better
By keeping it simple, we make our interaction better, in the sense that you will be an active participant in the discussion, with true understanding of the condition of your vehicle.
Possible
We will provide you not just with a single recommendation but with alternative options. We’ll make it possible for you to always have a choice.
About the facilities
Workshop
Many workshops claim to have a clean and tidy workshop. At EBDC Auto-Technics we take it another level by employing a common office keeping methodology known as 5S – Sort, Straighten, Shine, Standardize, Sustain.
With automotive repair, however, a sixth S needs to be practised – Safety. At EBDC safety is our highest priority, for staff, customers, and anyone else who visits the shop. We have a strict policy, where all hazards must be marked with safety signs to alert everyone of the potential danger and to provide direction safety zones, with safety perimeter lines clearly marked and the wearing of all Personal Protective Equipment strictly observed.
Parking
At EBDC Auto-Technics you won’t have to park on the street, with dedicated parking bays at the front of our business in addition to a priority parking spot for disabled drivers.
Customer Lounge
If your repair or service is expected to take a matter of hours, you can wait in our well-equipped customer lounge, with access to:
- Wi-Fi
- Television
- Comfortable seating
- A work desk for professionals
- Free coffee, tea and biscuits
Child-Friendly Environment
If you have a kid in tow, they can make use of our range of toys and other timewasters for all ages, from books and puzzles to toy cars and trucks, as well as board games for older kids.
Office Area
We have a second-floor seperate office area for customers to make payments for our services, discuss confidential matters with discretion and conduct other business matters as required.
