Overview - Pressure Hydraulics
Pressure Hydraulics is a locally owned business that currently has three service centres; Newcastle, Toronto and Maitland. Each service centre provides maintenance and specialised servicing of hydraulic systems as used in cars, trucks and earth moving equipment. The Maitland service centre also provides a specialty service to the mining industry where two purpose built trucks go onsite to service a range of mining equipment.
The business has become quite profitable in the past years and its owner, Allan Taylor, has devised plans to expand by opening service centres at Coffs Harbour and Gosford. Allan has future plans for other service centres along the east coast of NSW. He also feels that the time is right to look at how IT can support the existing business and enable his future business plans.
Currently, Allan spends a portion of each day at each service centre to monitor its operations. This is leaving little time to continue developing his business and he realises he will not be able to spend the same sort of time in the Coffs Harbour and Gosford service centres.
