TMC registration opens
Registration has officially opened for the 2015 PACCAR & Dealer Technical and Maintenance ConferenceThe Australian Trucking Association has announced that registration for this year's PACCAR & Dealer Technical and Maintenance Conference is now open, with the industry's premiere annual technical event to be held once again in Melbourne over October 26 to 28.
Jointly presented by the ATA and the Australian Road Transport Suppliers Association, the TMC will bring delegates up to speed on a wide range of technical issues along with a range of broader industry topics.
ATA CEO Christopher Melham said TMC 2015 would provide useful information and hands-on training for anyone involved in heavy vehicle maintenance.
"We're all out to get the best value in our business and we know that a proactive approach to maintenance is the way to achieve that," he said.
"Replacing that $100 part on time is always better than waiting until it causes a $1000 breakdown out on the road.
"And with Ministers agreeing to extend the Chain of Responsibility concept to heavy vehicle maintenance, it's past time to make sure that you are taking all reasonable steps to make sure your fleet is safe and well maintained.
"At TMC 2015, attendees have access to a full program of high-level technical sessions, compliance forums, and best-practice workshop sessions, with multiple program streams to help you get the training and advice most relevant to your business.
"This includes a stream of sessions focusing on the new National Heavy Vehicle Inspection manual, looking at key areas of concern to enforcement agencies including wheels and tyres, steering and suspension, brakes, couplings and electrics."
Registration for TMC 2015 costs $495 – the same price as last year and even a decade ago.
TMC 2015 will also include the PACCAR Parts TMC Funhouse, the TMC industry supplier Marketplace, and the Castrol Vecton Awards dinner, celebrating excellence in the trucking industry's workshops with the presentation of the 2015 Craig Roseneder Memorial Award and the Castrol Vecton Industry Achievement Award.
