Modern Tyres Help Brian McCance Steel Cut Tyre Costs
When Belfast based Brian McCance Steel wanted to streamline their tyre management process to make it more efficient and cost effective they had no hesitation calling in Modern Tyre Service.
Director Neil McCance says they were attracted to the Modern Tyre Service management programme because of it offered a ‘superb and dependable support package,’ and he adds: “It makes good commercial business sense.”
“We particularly like the fact that the programme incorporates a clearly defined audit trail and that we receive regular tyre management reports, detailing spend per vehicle per month, all of which helps us keep our costs in check and our vehicle fleet on the road.”
Up until recently, McCance Steel’s tyre management was a little fragmented. “It worked okay for us, but bringing Modern Tyres on board has made the process much more organised and easier to manage,” says Neil. “We looked at a number of other tyre companies; Modern Tyres produced the most attractive proposal and we are delighted with the service we are getting from them.”
“The response time from Modern Tyres is exceptional. On any occasions we have had the need to call them out, they’ve been there in double quick time, and that’s vital because like all businesses we do not want to suffer any unnecessary downtime, especially in the current climate.”
“We are delighted that McCance Steel have chosen our services,” says Modern Tyre Service’s Group Sales & Marketing Manager Stephen Shaw. “We deal direct with all major tyre manufacturers and have a comprehensive stock holding at any given time of upwards of 100,000 tyres, so availability is never a problem.
“Because of our strong buying power, we are able to pass on any price savings directly to our customers, and McCance Steel are already seeing the benefits,” adds Stephen. “And with 26 centres throughout Northern Ireland, backed up with 30 emergency breakdown vans stationed across the province, and a network of third party operatives in the Republic, our customers are never far away from the services of a highly trained technician if it is needed.”
