PM programs

    Preventative Maintenance Programs for Commercial Fleets

    A PM program sets the interval, the task list, and the paperwork for each vehicle class in your fleet, then holds to it. Fleets on a structured program reduce unplanned downtime by up to 60%.

    What's included

    Preventative Maintenance (PM): what the visit covers

    Custom PM intervals by vehicle class

    Mileage, hours, and calendar triggers are set per class, not fleet-wide. A city delivery van and a highway tractor do not wear the same way and should not share an interval.

    A / B / C service tiers

    A-service covers fluids, filters, and a safety inspection. B adds driveline, brake measurement, and undercarriage work; C is the deep annual service that pairs with your DOT inspection.

    Fluid, filter, belt, and hose service

    Engine oil, coolant, transmission and differential fluids, air and fuel filters, belts, and hoses are checked and changed to spec. Leaks and weeping seals are photographed and quoted, not silently topped off.

    Brake, tire, and undercarriage inspection

    Pad and lining thickness, rotor condition, tread depth, and pressures are measured and recorded at every visit. Trending those numbers is how a replacement gets scheduled instead of dispatched.

    PM compliance reporting

    You get a per-VIN record of what was due, what was done, and what is next. That is the file that answers a DOT audit or a customer safety review.

    Manufacturer warranty alignment

    Intervals and fluid specs follow the OEM schedule so warranty coverage stays intact. Documentation is kept in a form the manufacturer will accept.

    How it works

    How the service runs on-site

    1. 1

      Baseline inspection

      We inspect the fleet as it stands and record the true condition of each unit before setting a schedule.

    2. 2

      Program design

      Classes, intervals, and A/B/C task lists are written against your duty cycle and DOT requirements.

    3. 3

      Recurring on-site visits

      Visits land on your calendar, including off-shift windows, and the due list is worked in sequence.

    4. 4

      Review and adjust

      Findings feed back into the intervals — components that keep failing early get a shorter cycle.
