That’s why we pride ourselves on being there for our customers when they’re experiencing an emergency – no matter when it may be or what you may need. Do you need hydraulic hoses by tomorrow? We can help.
Success Story: Hydraulic Hoses on Demand
Industry – Auto parts manufacturing
Region – Central Pennsylvania
Savings – $8,000
Problem:
The customer called with a breakdown, needing a replacement hydraulic hose in a hurry. The whole machine was down and they needed to get up and running ASAP.
Solution:
ErieTec was able to call a local hose manufacturer who has the hoses and fittings in stock required to build the two hydraulic hoses the customer needed. Our territory account manager arranged for the manufacturer to build them so he could pick them up early the next day to deliver to the customer.
Savings Calculation:
The quick delivery helped avoid costly downtime. If they’d had to wait for the hoses to be built elsewhere they would have lost at least another day of production. The customer estimates that ErieTec’s fast action saved them around $8,000.
Our territory account managers and solutions specialists go above and beyond to ensure that replacement parts can be delivered as soon as possible. We have a 24/7 Emergency breakdown service which ensures that even if it’s the middle of third shift when something goes wrong, we have your back.
