ATS Euromaster introduces new way to save money10 July 2013

Commercial vehicle tyres supplier ATS Euromaster says that fleet managers can save on costs by using its new Service Value Calculator (SVC).

Group sales director Peter Fairlie says the company developed SVC to demonstrate the financial benefits of properly managing and servicing truck, bus and coach tyres, instead of replacing them prematurely.

SVC takes data on fleet size, annual mileage, tyre costs, fuel price and current tyre condition – identified during a preliminary ATS Euromaster fleet inspection.

It then provides a 10-page tyre savings report showing the financial impact of every aspect of professional tyre management, with a summary listing total potential annual savings achievable across an entire fleet, if tyres were managed and serviced by ATS Euromaster.

The new tool can be programmed with specific information about a customer's operation – and then also shows the financial benefits of regrooving, retreading, pressure optimisation and general tyre husbandry, such as turning tyres on the rim and twinning.

"Tyres already represent a significant part of most fleets' running costs and, left unchecked, they have the potential to keep rising," comments Fairlie.

"Every aspect of our business is focused on reducing a customer's operating costs through expert tyre management [and] the SVC enables us to provide the most detailed cost saving forecasts yet," he continues.

"We then use this data as a working plan to reveal the steps we can take jointly to secure a genuine improvement in efficiency."
