For any company, transportation is a must. At the
least, a company needs transportation to support the operation of employees
with high mobility or to transport goods and equipment.
The problem is, to buy vehicle assets in bulk,
companies need to dig deep into their pockets. Therefore, companies need to
calculate the efficiency between buying and renting vehicles.
If the companies decide to buy, they must understand
the risks and challenges ahead.
Companies need to think about the cost of maintenance
that will not be small; moreover, the service schedule of each car is different
depending on types and usage. The companies must have a systematic scheduling
and recording system.
That is only the predictable maintenance; there are still costs of repair
or other maintenance that are not routine and can be sudden. For example, if the
car breaks down, the car body gets damaged, etc.
Talking aboutexpenses,
companies also need to set aside funds to pay annual taxes with administration
process that takes time.
If companies buy vehicles on their own, all those needs must be taken care
of by themselves, and thus the companies need to prepare additional human
resources.
For industries like mining and plantation, thetransportation needs become even more specific. Those industries need
vehicles that can operate on extreme terrain. The cost of vehicles,
maintenance, and taxes are surely higher.
If we count only the vehicles, the expenses are
already high. In certain conditions, companies must also hire drivers, which
means additional expenses.
Then, what if companies choose to rent cars?
The situation is different if companies rent cars from
transportation service providers. All the existing
risks are already handled well. Companies only need to use the vehicles as
needed.
The cost of rent tends to be stable every month so
that the expenses are more measurable. There is also no need to bother about
annual taxes. Tax liability is limited to the cost of rent.
If needed, companies can also rent driver service that
is guaranteed to be reliable. This is important, especially when the cars are
used for the transportation of valuable employees.
Considering the efficiency of cost and time, then partnering with trusted
transportation service provider is the right move. TRAC, a subsidiary of PT Serasi Autoraya (SERA) under Astra, offers the solution of an integrated transportation
service to companies.
Not limited to car rental and driver service, TRAC
also has integrated Transportation Management System (TMS).
This TMS includes management of fuel cost, usage,
administration process, and analysis.
The system also monitors other expenses so that they
are controlled and can be accounted for. When the driver is
absent, a substitute is quickly appointed.
All the above needs are provided in one package.
However, TRAC allows companies to choose which services they need. TRAC as a trusted transportation provider can also plan new different things to
support the needs of consumers.
Overall, TRAC can give a
solution of integrated transportation service. Companies no longer need to
think about purchase and maintenance of vehicles, driver training, as well as
other matters related to asset management.
Companies can run well when the transportation
management also runs well. They can focus on
developing their core business without having to be bothered by vehicle
operational needs.
