Volvo Penta aims to drive its future of industrial services with dynamic partnerships that power efficiency, reliability, and long-term customer success.
In response to shifting customer demands and the increasing complexity of industrial equipment, Volvo Penta has streamlined its dealer network, focusing on stronger, and highly specialized partners.
“Our customers don’t just need an engine supplier – they need a long-term service partner who understands the challenges of their industry,” says Björn Säljö, Volvo Penta Industrial head of global service market. “By refining our dealer network, we’re ensuring that every partner has the technical expertise, financial strength, and investment capacity to provide world-class service and adapt to the future of power solutions.”
The strategy furthers the specialization of Volvo Penta’s dealer network across the broader service ecosystem that includes OEMs and their retail channels. By aligning expertise and capabilities across these key partners, Volvo Penta aims to secure seamless support, from traditional diesel power to emerging electrification and data-driven services.
From product-centric to full-service solutions
Volvo Penta is moving towards a service-driven ecosystem. At bauma 2025, the company will highlight how service contracts now support engine sales, such as:
- Performance-based service agreements optimizing uptime and reducing operating costs.
- Subscription models for predictive maintenance and remote monitoring.
- Bundled solutions, covering a holistic service ecosystem to maximize equipment efficiency.
“Our customers increasingly prioritize operational efficiency and long-term value over one-time purchases,” says Volvo Penta Industrial service market manager for central Europe, Judith Karl. “Our service-and-performance first approach aims to integrate predictive analytics, connectivity, to enhance uptime, optimize costs, and ensure that businesses stay competitive.”
Volvo Penta brings the strength of its industrial expertise to construction equipment. The company leverages extensive experience in ports, mining, and material handling and ensures that fleets benefit from the same high-reliability service standards used in the most demanding industrial sectors.
Future-ready services foundation with connectivity
At the core of Volvo Penta’s service transformation is connectivity, driven by advancements in IoT (Internet of Things), digital twins, and real-time fleet analytics. These technologies enable real-time engine monitoring to help minimize downtime and optimize maintenance costs. By integrating data-driven insights into service contracts, Volvo Penta can help enhance long-term operational value and performance. This approach supports modular contracts for electrified equipment, off-highway productivity solutions, and engine services designed to boost efficiency and cut emissions.
Guided by its ‘Made to Move You’ tagline, Volvo Penta aims to drive its future of industrial services with dynamic partnerships that power efficiency, reliability, and long-term customer success.
Volvo Penta invites customers, partners and attendees at bauma 2025 to discuss how its strengthened dealer network, connectivity, and next-generation service models redefine the industry.
