Forklift service is a crucial piece of your operational master plan. For both pre-planned maintenance and unplanned service calls, it\u2019s essential to have reliable, highly skilled specialists that are always ready to dispatch at a moment\u2019s notice.<\/p>\n
Choosing the ideal strategic partner for your maintenance requirements can play an important role in keeping your operation on schedule and allowing your business to run at maximum efficiency. When choosing a lift truck maintenance<\/a> partner, here are a few things you should think about:<\/p>\n Capability and coverage:<\/strong> the majority of local maintenance and repair operations employ only a few technicians and have only one location. This single-threaded approach is an issue when requesting service, since fewer technicians means less scheduling flexibility.<\/p>\n In situations where you have several facilities spanning a state or service area, you may be subject to much longer dispatch intervals or perhaps require more than one maintenance partner. Welch Equipment has locations spanning the Rocky Mountain Region. We employ dozens of technicians throughout the region, and our standard on-site time is just over 2 hours.<\/p>\n Unified maintenance:<\/strong> typical warehouses have a lot more equipment to maintain than just forklifts. Dock levelers, dock doors, automated storage systems, conveyors and many other systems need both routine and emergency service. Having a single vendor that is capable of maintaining all of your systems is not only convenient, it can greatly reduce your costs when you implement a planned maintenance routine.<\/p>\n Skilled technicians:<\/strong> when you look at your forklift repair\u00a0<\/span>options, not all technicians have the same level of training or experience. To get a forklift repair done quickly and done right the first time, particularly if you run multiple types of trucks, it\u2019s important to have capable technicians. Welch Equipment Company has some of the most highly trained specialists in the material handling industry that can maintain equipment from almost all forklift manufacturers.<\/span><\/p>\n
