Through this programme, Perkins offers support to rental companies by providing them with the tools and training to carry out their own minor repairs and maintenance on their Perkins engines. It also gives them the channels to escalate any problems quickly, all the way to the factory, if necessary. PRSP is designed to help both Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and their customers get the most out of their Perkins engines.

Visitors to the Perkins stand will also see a demonstration of the new Perkins® SmartCap and Perkins® My Engine App. These innovative solutions give Perkins customers easy access to truly useful engine information, such as running hours, start/stop data, parts book, up-and-coming services and a completed service log.
In addition, show attendees can see a live demonstration of the new online parts ordering offering on perkins.com/shop launched last year. Targeted at equipment owners and rental businesses, the online shop allows US customers of Perkins engines to buy genuine Perkins parts online. Perkins.com/shop offers quick, easy access to the most commonly ordered Perkins parts, including filters and service kits.
