At Mobile Specialty Vehicles, we’re proud to bring our decades of experience and passion for our work to every project we work on. To us, that also means helping our customers choose the right vehicle for their needs. To better understand the decision making process that can help you make your command unit decision, we’ve put together this quick guide of questions to ask yourself:
Price, Value, or Features?
First and foremost, you need to ask yourself what is most important for your selection, price, value, or features? This can help you narrow down your choices. Options that are more budget-friendly can be great options if you need a unit to get the job done without any frills. If you’re looking for great value, a unit that will last a long time and prove itself as a workhorse is likely more your style. Of course, if you’re most interested in the features, we have command units that are decked out with all the bells and whistles for your every need.
Expected Daily Service Range
Another important factor to consider is your daily service range. What is your expected daily service range, round trip? Is it going to be ten miles or less, ten to 25 miles, 25 to 50 miles, or 50 miles and more? This service range distance will make a big difference in not just the mileage your vehicle is going to get, but also in what kind of center and features are practical for your unit. In addition, this consideration will dictate how much maintenance your command center will need over the life of its use.
Desired Platform
The third question you should ask yourself about your command center is the platform you’d like for your unit. You can choose between self-propelled or towable, but if you’re not sure, you can always speak to one of our mobile experts to guide you through the selecting the best platform for your unit. When choosing a self-propelled unit, you have a choice between a motorcoach, a cab chassis, a cutaway, or a sprinter/transit van. Towable options for command center units are a bumper pull trailer, fifth-wheel trailer, or a semi trailer.
Budgeting and Funding
Last, but definitely not least, you need to consider the budget of your project and if you have funding for it! No matter what your project is, our mobile experts are happy to work with you to understand the scope of your project and the budget you require. In addition, we have financing options available for customized healthcare specialty vehicles, so we can help your company achieve its goals with a great command center that meets all your needs.
