CHECK AND CONTROLS



Increasing Fuel price:

One of the most short term problems our organization is bound
to face is the problem of increasing fuel prices. Due to volatile
market conditions and changing political scenario, fuel prices are
expected to rise. This has always been a problem for the trucking
industry and we have taken into consideration this important
issue. Increasing fuel costs have been taken into consideration
while analyzing total costs.
Driver Retention

The greatest problem that the trucking industry faces pertains to
driver retention and driver discipline issues. As drivers are the key
to success for our organization, utmost care must be taken to
ensure that drivers are retained. The cost of recruiting and
training new drivers would be rather high hence it is necessary to
retain existing drivers. Yearly training will be provided for the
same to the drivers to ensure that necessary discipline is
maintained and that drivers are kept up-to-date with the latest
regulations. Initially for the first 3 years an incentive system
would not be in place however after that we are looking forward
to implement an attractive incentive system that looks to reward
top performing drivers. This is necessary so as to keep our drivers
and accompanying staff happy and motivated towards the
companys ultimate goal.




Hours of
Service Regulation

Regulations by the government and union bodies require that
drivers are put under stress and pressure and have a healthy
working environment. This of course is necessary for the overall
health and wellbeing of our staff and drivers. We understand that
drivers are key figures in our company and should be treated on
par with other members of the organization. Thus we understand
that these regulations are important to follow. And hence we
have included support staff, i.e. attendants who will assist drivers
during their journeys. This will ensure that drivers do not feel
undue stress and pressure during work hours.
Low Fuel Efficiency

Long journeys across the company means that trucks are easy
prey to wear and tear. This deteriorates the overall health of the
fleet and cause low fuel efficiency. To combat this regular
maintenance is a must and thus we have apportioned a fair
amount for the regular monthly maintenance of trucks. This helps
trucks run smoothly and prevents on road issues. After a span of
2 years we are interested in increasing our fleet by 5 trucks.
