When an engine leaves one of Perkins’ global manufacturing locations it begins delivering value to its original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or end user customer the moment it’s installed. But that, literally, is only the beginning. From that point on, the advanced design and manufacturing engineering that went into producing the engine has done its job. The engine’s ultimate value is now dependent on the skill and know-how of the people who will service, maintain and repair it for the balance of its life.
For a Perkins engine, that means its future now is in the capable hands of a member of the worldwide Perkins distributor network. In 171 countries that means access to trained technicians, genuine Perkins parts, a responsive local organisation and a customer focused business approach that is uniquely Perkins.
OEMs and end users often choose Perkins engines because of their global reputation for efficiency and reliability. But it’s the superior global sales and service support they receive from the Perkins distributor network that turns one-time buyers into lifetime customers over and over.
Perkins is a global brand which means Perkins engines may be used anywhere from the high arctic to the hottest, driest desert. Knowing how to service and maintain that engine under local conditions is one of the major strengths of the Perkins distributor. Think Global, Act Local is a winning combination and every Perkins distributor works hard to make it a reality.
