Client Introduction
An overseas engineering transportation contractor, undertaking heavy-duty freight services for mines and ports for a long time. The fleet needs to operate under high-intensity working conditions for extended periods.
Business Challenges
The working site has poor road conditions, leading to fast wear of tractor axles. Local spare parts supply is insufficient with long procurement lead times. Once vehicles break down and stop operating, the construction schedule will be delayed directly and extra losses will be incurred.
Cooperation Solution
The client purchased multiple sets of 6×4 heavy-duty tractor heads, and separately bought several heavy-duty spare axle assemblies. We adopted the bulk carrier shipping solution. The tractor heads and the client’s purchased spare axles were first loaded together on flatbed trailers at one location, transported to the port in a unified manner and loaded onto bulk carriers for overseas shipment. After the equipment arrives at the port, damaged axles can be replaced directly, avoiding the long spare parts procurement cycle overseas.
Delivery Execution
Central loading was completed at the factory yard. Multiple tractor heads were placed on flatbed trailers, and the spare axles purchased by the client were stacked on top of the tractor heads. The goods were reinforced and inspected in batches. After confirming the stable loading, the cargo was transported to the port for loading onto bulk carriers.
Project Results
The tractor heads and spare axles purchased by the client were shipped on schedule via bulk carrier. After the equipment was put into operation, axles can be replaced quickly to effectively shorten vehicle downtime and ensure uninterrupted heavy-duty freight on site. The bulk cargo packaging and delivery solution for this project was recognized by the client.
