Both parties share the service network
In addition to improving product performance, the construction of service networks and the opening up of markets are also important reasons for strategic cooperation between vehicle and component companies.
In terms of service network construction, parts and components companies can use their own service networks to provide support to vehicle companies. According to the Beiben Heavy Duty Truck Group, the strategic cooperation between Beiben Heavy Duty Truck and Weichai Power will facilitate the joint development of the market and the establishment of a market service system. “Weichai Power will provide support in after-sales service,†the source said.
