FLEET MANAGEMENT FOR MATERIAL HANDLING VEHICLES

Non-captive expertise for more efficient fleets

Whether you are using pallet trucks, forklifts, or electric-powered tow tractors, we take a detailed look at your material handling vehicles, focusing primarily on optimising processes and usage.
Taking commercial, technical, procedural, and energy aspects into account, we provide advice on suitable manufacturers and vehicle models. You receive a comprehensive TCO analysis of your fleet to determine the optimum usage.
We also support the optimisation of your procurement, administration and waste disposal processes, and the maintenance of your material handling vehicles.

 

 

Monitoring and control – fleet optimisation during operation

Access control, analysis of vehicle usage and driving behavior, automatic damage reports, maintenance planning, and battery monitoring: Installing state-of-the-art sensors makes it possible to optimise a fleet during ongoing operations – regardless of whether the vehicles used are produced by different manufacturers. We provide you with this technology and integrate the data collected into the fleet management plan.

But vehicle-specific data does not just provide the basis for optimising the size and productivity of the fleet. Using state-of-the-art geofencing and access controls, security can also be significantly improved, and damage that is not due to normal wear and tear is drastically reduced. Automatic damage reports help you to improve your claim settlement process and maintenance cycles. All in all, having CHG-MERIDIAN as a partner will make a substantial contribution to modernising your fleet and making it more efficient.

Fleet management means lifecycle management

Our customers’ prime concerns are cost benefits and flexibility. In addition to determining the appropriate lifecycle for your material handling vehicles based on the TCO analysis, we also offer you flexibility during the useful life. With vehicle pools and early return options we ensure that you are able to adapt the size of your fleet flexibly to busy and quiet periods.

We also advise you when it becomes necessary to modernise due to digital requirements – e.g. relating to automated guided vehicle systems (AGVs), occupational health and safety issues, or employee satisfaction. And we guarantee a fair and transparent return process including collection and remarketing.
