Wheeler Machinery on Keeping Heavy Equipment in Production - Uptime Logistics
Wheeler Machinery supports its customers with heavy equipment and parts. They are primarily an official Caterpillar dealer, though they also carry other complementary product lines to support production.
Chris Williams and Justin Semadeni with Wheeler Machinery discuss how they provide their customers uptime while helping balance their equipment inventory. What do you do when a part isn’t available? That's where quality relationships and problem solving skills come into play.
Heavy machinery serves many different important roles in various industries including power generation, mining, and construction. The common thread is production. If those machines aren’t running, those projects aren’t producing and those people aren’t earning money. That’s why it’s important to put that piece of equipment back to work. Looking ahead, Chris also discusses the future of heavy equipment parts, advanced analytics, and even how technologies like 3D printing can take the supply chain to a next level in the next 5 to 10 years.
