Spare Part Selection and Maintenance: Strategies for Vehicle Longevity

In fleet management, lowering the total cost of ownership (TCO) is possible with the right spare-part supply and a disciplined, planned preventive maintenance routine.

Spare Part Selection and Maintenance: Strategies for Vehicle Longevity

For logistics and transport companies, profitability depends not only on freight rates but on the operating cost per kilometre of each vehicle. Using quality spare parts directly lowers the total cost of ownership (TCO).

Preventive Maintenance Discipline

Rather than repairing a part after it fails, tracking its service life and replacing it before it fails is the discipline of "preventive maintenance". This method prevents unplanned workshop visits for fleet vehicles and avoids delivery delays.

  • Planned renewal of hoses and clamps

  • Periodic analysis and replacement of coolant

  • Seasonal maintenance of steering hydraulics and filters

  • Periodic check of engine valve clearances and guides
