“We are a leading Metal Tier 1 supplier to the automotive industry with over 40 U. S. locations.
This makes it vitally important that we ensure consistency in pricing, quality and service throughout the corporation. To help us achieve this goal, our national accounts vendors must be up-to-date technically and familiar with the most current state and federal regulations. Our QS9000 certification makes it even more critical that our suppliers share our dedication to cost containment and quality.

As we worked on our national accounts strategy, it
became evident that there was a large discrepancy in
pricing and service capability among our crane parts
and service suppliers. Establishing a national contract with Crane Pro Services has allowed us to standardize costs and also guarantee a more consistent level of service.

Safety is another element that is of paramount importance to all of us. Dealing with
a company that has highly trained personnel and the technical expertise to advise us of the most
up-to-date safety and service bulletins is a real advantage.”

“Our most critical time is during
the summer run season.
In the summer months, anything that prevents generating electricity is serious, and even a very small component that breaks can shut the whole process down. So a half-ton maintenance crane is just as important to us as one of the larger ones. Everything has to work in every area all the time to help us maintain readiness.

The principal weapon we use to keep our cranes
running is inspection. To ensure that federal and state requirements were being met, it made sense to consolidate inspections for all of our plants with just one vendor. Crane Pro's people have proven themselves to be worthy partners for our own maintenance staff. We've found other advantages as well. When repairs are needed, one Crane Pro technician can perform an entire repair that previously took several craft lines to complete. And Crane Pro maintains an extensive parts inventory– more than we could carry ourselves on our 30 and 40 year old crane equipment.”
