Description and Table of Contents

Description

Vehicle repair and maintenance workshops are operated by companies across a wide variety of transport sectors such as own account, third party logistics providers, road haulage, local government, and utilities. Maintenance operations can be a significant direct cosy of vehicle operations and, perhaps more importantly for those delivering a service to customers, can quickly affect vehicle availability if not operated effectively. This volume brings together a collection of papers that consider solid management principles and techniques, automatic identification technology, workshop operations, and how future development in the vehicle repair industry. It addresses the key areas of: workshops, cost-effectiveness, past operations from an engineer's perspective, computerized systems, counting the costs, and staff development.
