Built into GE's 24/7 maintenance and management solution, TruckVantage, the new On-site Maintenance programme brings highly skilled technicians into existing customer garages to provide on-site fleet maintenance and oversight. Services offered include maintenance and repairs for trucks, trailers and material handling equipment, as well as parts inventory management and DOT, OSHA and other environmental safety inspections.

Meanwhile TruckVantage Mobile Maintenance allows GE customers to access Amerit's Mobile Service Centers, comprising fully customised “rolling garages” that can be deployed to easily serve fleet maintenance needs. Said to be ideal for fleets with assets in remote locations, Mobile Maintenance allows clients to schedule repairs and preventative maintenance on-site at their facilities, eliminating the expense and downtime associated with transporting assets to other maintenance providers.

‘This agreement is an important element of GE Capital Fleet Services' ability to offer a more comprehensive truck maintenance solution,’ said Brad Hoffelt, senior vice president, general manager of products and services at GE Capital Fleet Services. ‘Through the Amerit on-site and mobile maintenance programs, customers can cut downtime, keep costs stable and predictable, and spend more time focusing on core operations.’

‘Combining Amerit's proven success in deploying fleet maintenance service solutions anywhere in the US with GE's current TruckVantage program creates a unique, comprehensive approach to solving the challenges many of the fleets in the US face today,’ said Dan Williams, CEO of Amerit Fleet Solutions.
