Challenge
Golden State Foods had acquired additional assets in 2018, including close to 100 trucks. They needed assistance with re-plating and re-titling these units under a very tight deadline. They required that their trucks stay on the road with no down time or interruption of service. Also, GSF required all applicable permitting to be handled in a smooth and quick manner.
Solution
Utilizing Asset Management services and a cost savings approach, Fleetworthy suggested to initiate an IRP Base-plate Analysis. The goal was to find the optimal jurisdiction for plating of these assets. Focus was to be placed on providing a quick turnaround time for temporary plates for all trucks until being able to secure permanent, hard-plates for them.
Results
Fleetworthy was able to provide both time and cost savings to GSF by quickly providing their acquired units with temporary plates so that they could stay on the road with no interrupted service to their valued customers. In addition, Fleetworthy helped GSF realize decreased audit fees and process improvements. Because of the commitment to this customer’s success, Fleetworthy’s team was recognized as a Vendor of the Year by Golden State Foods.
