All weather support
February 1st 2008 Increasingly unpredictable
weather in the UK can have
a negative effect on
operations.
Materials handling
specialist, Barloworld helps
customers select the
appropriate equipment and
provides a quick response
maintenance service to allow
operators to safely work to
full capacity whatever the
weather.
Barloworld uses the latest
technology to provide
customers with an efficient
support service 24 hours a
day and in any weather
conditions. Its web based
vehicle tracking system
allows an efficient and
speedy service response. The
system is applied to the
entire Barloworld fleet of
550 service vehicles which
means dispatchers are
immediately able to assign
the nearest engineer
according to skills required,
and improve planning to
incorporate schedules and
routes. The efficiency of this
system was demonstrated in
2007 when floods blocked
many UK roads. Barloworld
was able to find alternative
routes in problem areas and
avoid service delays.
Barloworld reports
satisfaction levels of over
96% for its service support. More articles from Barloworld Handling Ltd: |
