In this post, I’ll address two questions that will help you improve the way your fleet operates:
1. What is preventative maintenance?
2. Why is it so important to your fleet and your company s bottom line?
If your business is within the equipment rental industry, it probably has a lot of moving parts – literally. Equipment companies often have anywhere from 5 to 500, to 10,000 units, with fleets consisting of small equipment, cranes, specialized transportation vehicles, front loaders, tractor trailers, aerial lifts, and more. Units in any fleet have to travel from point A to point B, and sometimes to point C. They have to perform tasks along the way and make it back to point A. Hopefully, they return fully functional and in one piece, but that isn’t always the case. With help from mechanics, service managers, and a fully implemented preventative maintenance program, you can keep your fleet (and in turn, your business) running
