- Vehicle dealer servicing a fleet of MAXUS V80 vans and T60 pickups
Overview
A dealer maintaining several hundred MAXUS V80 delivery vans and T60 pickups needed a stable supply of genuine and OE-quality parts to reduce vehicle downtime for fleet customers.
Challenge
Fast-moving items such as clutches, starters, and mirrors ran out repeatedly, while slow-moving items such as gearboxes and engine long blocks were needed occasionally but urgently. The dealer wanted a mixed stock order plus an urgent-order channel.
Solution
| Item | Model / Part No. | Qty |
|---|---|---|
| Clutch kits | C00001302 / C00066026 / C00049939 | 120 |
| Starter motors | T60 2.8 starter C00050267 | 60 |
| 5-speed gearboxes | V80 5-speed gearbox assembly | 12 |
| Engine long blocks | SC25R136.1Q4 (V80) and SC20M163.Q6A (T60) | 8 |
| Body and cabin parts | Mirrors C00057636, door handles C00345091, gearbox operating mechanism C00095371 | 1 lot |
Scope of supply
Part-number consolidation from the dealer's parts catalogue, mixed-container stock shipment, monthly air-freight consolidation for urgent items, CIF San Antonio.
Outcome
Stock-outs on fast-moving parts were reduced and the dealer extended its fleet-maintenance contracts. Long-block engines are now held in reserved stock in Shanghai.
