Dan Bauckham, director of engineering at Suckling Transport, explains that the contract works on a fixed pence per kilometre (PPK) basis, and that the firm uses the Michelin X Multi range across its fleet, including the latest generation X Multiway 3D tyre fitments on the tractor units. .
"Professional tyre management is vital to our business and plays a key role in our drive to reduce on-the-road incidents to zero," states Bauckham.
"By renewing our contract with Michelin Solutions we can ensure our vehicles are always operating on premium tyres, maintained in the best possible condition."
Michelin Solutions has appointed local service providers ATS Euromaster and Tructyre Fleet Management to support Suckling's multi-site fleet, inspecting tyres on vehicle and trailers on a monthly basis.
"It's essential we work with strategic suppliers who understand the intricacies of our operation and can support our long-term goals," comments Bauckham.
"That's precisely what we get from Michelin Solutions. Our business has become far more efficient since we started working together. They save us a significant amount of time and support our goal of continual business improvement."
