Trevose, PA, March 4, 2013 – Case studies showing how truck fleets have saved time and money by outsourcing their accident management activities will be the focal point of The CEI Group’s message next week at the trucking industry’s largest trade show
CEI will be one of the exhibitors at 2014 Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition, hosted by the American Trucking Association’s Technology and Maintenance Council (TMC). The gathering will be held at the Music City Center in Nashville, Tennessee March 10 -13.
Luann Dunkerley, CEI’s national business development manager for truck and service fleets, and a member of the Board of Governors of the National Private Truck Council Institute, will lead CEI’s contingent at the TMC show, at Booth # 1258. A veteran of the trucking industry for more than 25 years, Ms. Dunkerley will be joined by Paul Duffin, CEI’s principal relationship manager for truck fleets.
“Fleet managers today are having to do more and more with fewer resources,” said Ms. Dunkerley “Our clients have found that outsourcing their accident management function has cut their costs, reduced their cycle time, increased the recovery of accident damages from third-party drivers, and significantly leveraged their productivity.”
Ms. Dunkerley said that last year, CEI saved all of its fleet customers more than $10 million in accident repair costs and, for the fifth year in a row, recovered more than $30 million from third-p-arty drivers responsible for accidents with client fleet vehicles.
