Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDI)
CAT UK have been carrying out Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDI) on vehicles entering the UK since 1986. Today we carry out PDI checks on new and used vehicles, either at the point of importation or later in the life-cycle for fleet vehicles.
Over 120,000 PDI checks completed annually.
Our pre-delivery inspection process is semi-industrialised to improve operational efficiencies, the process involves:
- Accepting the vehicle from factory or point of importation
- Vehicle inspection
- Rapid rectification of damage, where applicable
- Preparing the vehicle to specific UK dealer or manufacturer standard
- Interior and Exterior Valet, to required standard
- Movement and management of vehicle to and from storage compound, prior to final delivery
Our pre-delivery inspection process is unique to each customer. We are able to support dealers with individual customer requests and provide a range of added value services, see accessory fitment below.
