CHALLENGE: Fleet Downtime = Losses

A leading national energy construction company with a reputation for excellence in reliability, performance and customer satisfaction was struggling with its ability to literally get its construction crews to the job. While performing their primary construction duties at the same high level they had for more than 50 years, their work vehicles were often out-of-service due to minor but important Department of Transportation-cited (DOT) infractions that were identified when the crews were on the way to their worksites.

Increasingly, work crews were standing idle on the side of the road while their work vehicles were repaired. They were relying on ad hoc repairs by outside small repair shops and their own staff to maintain their vehicles, which is not their core capability. Recognizing that it was costing money due to crew idle-time and damaging their reputation, the company came to C&P Fleet Services to see if they could provide routine preventative maintenance and on-going repairs for their $30-million fleet of service vehicles.

C&P’s technical staff has decades of fleet vehicle repair and maintenance experience and numerous ASE certifications that ensures work will be performed on the same OEM level as vehicle manufacturers’ own repair facilities.
