Beware Where You Park!
A beverage manufacturer’s drivers, responsible for finding secure, cost-effective parking for their trucks as well as for paying parking fees and submitting expenses for reimbursement, had a habit of letting these things slip. Trucks were being towed or booted due to nonpayment, and vandals were damaging trucks parked in unsecured locations. All of this resulted in vehicle damage, downtime and product loss. The company accepted our recommendation to create a new off-site parking policy and establish corporate
 
accounts with reputable parking facilities. Our client also put into place a communications plan that conveyed requirements of the new policy to the field. Subsequent ongoing communications enabled the company to enforce driver compliance, eliminating the various non-compliant practices and related fees and fines, vehicle downtime, vandalism, product loss, and—most important—eliminating the delays to and the resulting
dissatisfaction of its customers.
