THE PROBLEM
Kennedy Wire Rope & Sling (KWRS) has been supplying the Oil & Gas, Construction and other industrial markets with lifting and rigging solutions for over 35 years. An aging and unreliable fleet was starting to become a concern for management, as it required significant time and resources to maintain efficiency. Therefore, the company decided it was time to analyze its fleet needs.
THE SOLUTION
KWRS teamed with Enterprise Fleet Management to implement a customized maintenance program and a proactive replacement plan for its fleet of specially-equipped vehicles. The maintenance program allowed KWRS to improve expense tracking while reducing annual maintenance costs by $23,000. In addition, Enterprise Fleet Management helped KWRS realize significant savings on new vehicle purchases—working with the company to factory-order replacements to meet their exact vehicle needs.
