 “Tristan Fleet Management is a natural expansion of the maintenance and repair services that have historically been provided to Andy Transport and independent owner operators” said Andreea Crisan, chief operating officer and executive vice president.  “The growth of Andy Transport’s fleet resulted in a strategic physical network of maintenance and repair centers. The expertise and dedication of its skilled workforce is now offered to third parties.”

Crisan was named one of Heavy Duty Trucking magazine’s 2018 Truck Fleet Innovators.

Tristan’s customer base is composed of small and medium size fleets.  Nearly 200 clients use Tristan to help plan preventive maintenance and repairs, and benefit from Tristan’s 24/7 road assistance, towing, and road service needs all over North America.

“When operating a fleet, managing a shop and an in-house maintenance program can become an overwhelming burden and an expensive cost-center” said Ilie Crisan, Andy president. “We want to help fleet owners focus on their core business, while we propose a personalized fleet management solution which includes opening a new shop to cater to their needs in a strategic location, operating their existing shops, and giving them access to our network and services.”
