Service contracts
Securing your uptime
A service contract has one purpose only: to keep your vehicles available, safe and productive. A well-maintained bus or coach will simply do a better job. The risk of unplanned stops, or even breakdowns, is significantly reduced. What’s more, a properly serviced vehicle is also better at maintaining its value.
Tailor your maintenance
All vehicles are different. City buses with long service days need a different type of attention compared to low-mileage intercity short-haulers. Within the service contract, we design a maintenance plan based on the way each of your vehicles is driven.
