Frost & Sullivan recognized Cummins, Inc. with the 2014 U.S. Overall Best Heavy-Duty Truck Engines Product Leadership Award at the North American Growth, Innovation & Leadership Gala held in San Jose, Calif. Tuesday.
Cummins’ selection for the award was based on the results of a survey recently distributed by the consulting firm. According to Frost & Sullivan, the majority of respondents indicated that they think Cummins is the “best” brand of heavy-duty truck engines for their fleets.
“We are honored to receive this award from Frost & Sullivan, as it is a direct endorsement from fleet managers of their affinity for the Cummins brand,” said Julie Furber, executive director of Cummin’s North America Engine Business, Truck Division. “This recognition is a testament to our commitment to deliver industry-leading engines backed by unmatched support that enables our customers’ success in all of the markets in which they operate.”
One thing Cummin officials believe contributed to the award is their variety in engine offerings.
The survey also highlighted respondent satisfaction with the company’s customer service and support network.
“Customer support will always remain a top priority for Cummins, and it is reassuring to see from this award that fleet managers highly value our capability,” said Furber.
