Services

At Volvo, we thrive on the philosophy of “Customer First” where we value our customers by providing them with the best pre and after sale services in the Industry. Our aim is to achieve industry leading customer satisfaction, which is reflected in each step of the relationship building process with our clients.

Our Customer Support Areas (Sale and After Sale) include:

Our strong after sale support includes operator/ driver trainings to help them make the best use of newly acquired vehicles. The idea is to familiarize drivers/ operators with the latest technologies and features available to them in the trucks so that the vehicles run smoothly and perform to their standard.

Our professional trainers are available to train your operators in-house and on the site. This training is provided each time there is a change in the operator. The training covers the following aspects:

➢ General orientation of equipment and its displays
➢ Safe operating procedures
➢ Daily walk around procedures

Aided with extensive product knowledge and experience, we help our customers in identifying and deciding to opt for the best vehicles for them based on their unique product and performance needs.

Based on our customers’ unique preferences, our Application Engineers are trained for providing customized product features and solutions in the trucks so that our customers are delighted with the end-product.

We understand that equipment has to be best suited for its application as its incorrect use may result in excessive fuel consumption and consequently higher operating costs; it may also lead to accidents.

To ensure that you are provided with the most appropriate, economical and safe solutions, our Application Engineering team also conducts on-site studies and provides technical recommendations on equipment selection.

We make honest and earnest efforts to serve our customers with feasibility assistance that is fully  commensurate with their product requirements.

Technical trainings are an integral part of the value added services that we provide to our customers on a need basis. Our expert engineers work out technical workshop modules suited to individual customer requirements.
