SPECIALIST SUPPLIERS TO THE UTILITIES SECTOR

With more than 40 years’ experience dealing with clients within this specific industry sector, we have an in-depth and unique understanding of what is required throughout the purchase process and what must be fulfilled in order to meet every requirement with precision.

We tick all the boxes

We are Achilles Audited and Achilles Qualified.  As suppliers to the utilities sector for more than four decades, our expertise and knowledge in this field is unrivalled. We have great insight when it comes to the needs of the purchaser, health and safety executives and, of course, the end user. We believe this is what sets us apart from the rest. Our full service offering means we do a whole lot more than simply supply you with a power tool. We understand your specific requirements and go above and beyond to meet them. We know there are many boxes to be checked when purchasing equipment; we have the experience and know-how to tick those boxes smoothly and efficiently.

Here’s How:

We want to provide you with the perfect solution. To achieve this, we consult with the purchaser, health and safety executives and the tradespeople who will use the tools – this ensures our offering is a fit for all involved.
We run a testing and evaluation process to enable all parties to give their approval. Once an agreement has been reached, we supply an official approved tool list that can be utilised to meet your traceability requirements.

We work with all major brands and can identify the brand best suited to meet your particular needs. Additionally, where possible, we provide a single battery platform solution to maximise cost, space and efficiency benefits.

Working closely with your tradespeople, we identify a bespoke range of tools most suited to their daily activities. All kits are supplied with name tags for each tradesperson.

We extend and manage your warranty for you, alerting you when equipment reaches the end of its warranty period.

Asset engraving is available for all equipment, which is then logged on your customer portal.

We offer an open and transparent reporting system which can be amended to suit your requirements. Our clients find this a particularly useful resource.

Health and safety is at the core of everything we stand for at Southern Power Tools.

We offer a tailored tagging service that highlights HAV magnitude, PPH and both EAV and ELV usage times. These tags utilise the popular traffic light system and can be branded accordingly.

We offer a specialist PAT service to ensure compliance with health and safety law; we guide you seamlessly through the process to meet the legal requirements.

We offer nationwide delivery using either our own transport, or approved and trusted logistic partners.

We offer full training on all equipment provided by Southern Power Tools to ensure PUWER compliance.

We also recommend you designate at least one person to complete our ‘train the trainer’ course. The course is designed to equip you to deliver in-house training to new starters. 

We offer full service and repair support using our in-house workshop staffed by experienced, knowledgable engineers.

Designated account managers ensure you receive continuous support.

We drive innovation through authentic, long-term relationships, both with clients and leading manufacturers.

Our transparent framework gives you complete confidence that health and safety requirements are fulfilled at every stage. All kits arrive with everything you need to be compliant – and we take steps to ensure you remain so for the lifecycle of the equipment.

Can your current supplier commit to this?
