Mobility Plus
Home servicesMobility Plus's most recent Franchise Disclosure Document, filed in 2025, discloses 53 units, all 53 franchised, growing 1.9% year over year — an estate of 50 mapped single-unit operators rather than a handful of large ones. Item 1 names only Richard M. Peter, agent for service of process, with no CIO, CTO or named officer disclosed, so the executive buyer has to be qualified directly. The filing mandates one system, QuickBooks Online, and names QuickBooks and Square in fee or usage clauses that require nothing.

The vendor opportunity at Mobility Plus
Mobility Plus is an Illinois-headquartered home services brand — mobility and home access equipment — and its most recent Franchise Disclosure Document, filed in 2025, discloses 53 units, all 53 of them franchised. The company-owned count is not disclosed. Unit count grew 1.9% year over year, so the system is expanding slowly rather than scaling. Royalty is 6.0% and the initial term is 5 years. Average unit volume is not disclosed in the most recent filing.
Operator mapping locates roughly 50 units held by 50 mapped operators, none of them multi-unit, led by Florida (7), Arizona (5), Indiana (4), North Carolina (4) and Ohio (3). Every mapped operator holds exactly one location. That is the defining fact for a vendor: 53 units means close to 50 separate small businesses, so per-seat economics matter more here than enterprise procurement.
Who controls software purchasing
Item 1 lists a single individual, Richard M. Peter, agent for service of process. That is a legal designation rather than a buying role, and no chief information officer, chief technology officer, president or operations executive is disclosed in the filing.
Control is therefore split, and the split is legible even without a named executive. The franchisor demonstrably can mandate software — it requires QuickBooks Online of every franchisee — so a standard set centrally will stick. But with all 53 units franchised to single-location owners, anything the franchisor does not mandate is bought 50 times over. The efficient motion is to win the corporate standard first and let it carry the rollout; the fallback is a long tail of individual sales at small deal sizes.
Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required
Three systems appear in the 2025 filing and they carry different weight. QuickBooks Online is mandated: the FDD obliges the franchisee to use it. QuickBooks and Square each appear through a fee or usage clause rather than an obligation — the filing names them, and nothing in it requires a franchisee to run either.
So one category, cloud accounting, is closed at the franchisor level. Everything a home services business actually runs on is open: there is no mandated field service management platform, no mandated scheduling or dispatch tool, no mandated CRM or quoting system, no mandated payment processor, and no mandated inventory system. Square's presence in the filing tells you payments are discussed in the document; it does not tell you a location has it installed.
For a vendor selling field service, scheduling or quoting software into home services, a 53-unit system with one accounting mandate and no operational mandate is an unusually clean target — the category is open and there is no franchisor-level incumbent to displace.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8, covering sources of products and services, yields no extract in the 2025 filing, so the procurement model — designated supplier, approved supplier, or open — is not disclosed. QuickBooks Online is the only firm supplier-side technology requirement visible.
Item 17 sets an unusually fast clock. Franchisees may obtain successor agreements for up to two additional 5-year terms, subject to advance notice, being in compliance, signing the then-current form of franchise agreement, paying the successor franchise fee, and signing a general release unless prohibited by law. A 5-year initial term plus two 5-year successors means the contract, and the fixed costs attached to it, come up for review roughly every five years.
How to read the Mobility Plus FDD
The 2025 document was filed with state franchise regulators and is embedded in the viewer below. Item 1 gives the corporate structure and the one individual on record, Item 8 covers supplier obligations, Item 17 carries the successor-term conditions quoted above, and Item 20 carries the 53-unit count and the 1.9% growth.

Questions vendors ask
Mobility Plus, answered from the filing
The 2025 FDD names only Richard M. Peter, agent for service of process — a legal role, not a buying one. No CIO, CTO or operating officer is disclosed. HQ can clearly mandate, since QuickBooks Online is required, but the named executive buyer is not in the filing.
One system: QuickBooks Online, which the FDD obliges the franchisee to use. QuickBooks and Square also appear, but only in fee or usage clauses — the filing names them and requires neither. No field service, scheduling, CRM or payments platform is mandated.
The 2025 FDD discloses 53 units in the home services segment, all franchised, up 1.9% year over year. Operator mapping locates roughly 50 units held by 50 single-unit operators, led by Florida (7), Arizona (5), Indiana (4), North Carolina (4) and Ohio (3).
Not disclosed. Item 8 yields no extract in the 2025 filing, so whether Mobility Plus designates suppliers, maintains an approved list, or leaves purchasing open is unknown. The one firm technology obligation visible anywhere in the document is QuickBooks Online.
The initial term runs only 5 years, with up to two additional 5-year successor terms. Each renewal requires advance notice, compliance, the then-current agreement form, a successor fee and a general release — so the contract reopens roughly every five years, faster than most systems.
It was filed with state franchise regulators in 2025 and is embedded in the PDF viewer below. Read Item 1 for the corporate structure, Item 8 for supplier obligations, Item 17 for the successor-term conditions, and Item 20 for the 53-unit count cited on this page.
