Increased colleague satisfaction

Fit-for-purpose heavy-duty vans provided both practicality and comfort, helping engineers maximise performance.

Challenges

KM Group’s wide range of services and departments meant that their vans had to be versatile and capable of performing a variety of tasks. Including the transportation of particularly heavy loads. Sourcing suitable vans to meet the needs of their business functions and grow their fleet was difficult due to their rapidly growing pace.

Renowned for their industry-leading services, the ability to maintain high standards was crucial, and the maintenance downtime from ageing vans was not just increasing costs but increasing the pressure to complete contracts on schedule.

KM Plant needed a reliable van supplier who could be agile and provide a constant supply of vans as the existing fleet needed replacing.

Solution

  • With Vansdirect’s extensive range of specialist vans, our team of van experts were able to recommend a selection of suitable RWD Ford Transit vans to meet the customer’s need for reliable and versatile vans for groundwork.
  • Utilising our strong supply relationships, KM Group have been able to be flexible in ordering a number of vans with immediate delivery, minimising downtime while older vans are off the road for maintenance.
