Abstract

This study presents a transition plan for an independent workshop to begin and scale up services for hybrid and electric vehicles (HEVs), combining technical safety and economic viability. Structured around three pillars - processes, training, and infrastructure - the plan is based on business literature on service innovation, strategy, and organizational performance. Applied and qualitative in nature, the research used document analysis and participant observation to construct the plan and financial projection, whose indicators demonstrated the viability of the investment. The model integrates safety standards (NR-10, NR-35, ABNT NBR ISO 6469) and concepts of organizational learning, offering a replicable roadmap for adaptation to electromobility. The contributions focus on providing a practical and replicable framework for service SMEs, strengthening their capacity for innovation, risk management, and sustainability in servicing HEVs.
