Twelve apprentices earned their tools to enter the automotive engineering technology sector recently to meet the demand for skilled manpower in the country.

All of the apprentices have already gone through a year of on the job training with Scania and will now join its nationwide service network.

The Scania Apprenticeship Programme brings a continuous flow of highly skilled new talents into the company, which allows Scania to maintain a capable and experienced workforce for the benefit of its customers while giving graduating apprentices the opportunity to begin their careers and gain further experience in one of the world’s leading truck, bus and engine manufacturers.

The programme began with Institut Kemahiran Belia Negara (IKBN) Kuala Perlis in 2014 under a collaboration to develop the skills and syllabus, industrial training, apprentice programme and employment for graduate students later in Scania.

It is now open to any training institution for individuals or fresh graduates with at least two years of education at certificate level in Commercial Automotive studies with a minimum academic CGPA of 3.0 and above or equivalent, as well as be able to read, write and speak English.

“This initiative to develop more skilled technicians for Malaysia’s growing heavy commercial vehicle sector not only fulfills the needs of the nation but also Scania’s customers as we are able to provide them with the best ownership experience and profitability for their investment,” said Managing Director of Scania Southeast Asia, Marie Sjödin Enström.

Marie, who presented the certificates to the graduating apprentices, also said the programme will provide wider opportunities to increase the skills, knowledge and professionalism of students in technical fields as well as with public, private and research institutes to cooperate on multiple levels.

During the event, Scania also welcomed its new apprentices for 2017 who will undergo three months of intensive training at its headquarters, following which those who qualify will continue with on the job training at selected Scania branches for another nine months.

In addition, regional headquarters will be established in Thailand to support Scania’s distributors in Asia and Oceania in developing business in their markets. Positive market trends and good connectivity to the region and the head office in Sweden were the basis for the decision to anchor the headquarters here.

“The new establishment will bring all industrial and commercial functions in Scania even closer to our customers in Asia in general and in Thailand in particular,” says Ted Göransson, Project Director for the new establishment. “By increasing our local presence, we will be able to quickly respond to customers’ demands and make sure that we provide the best transport solution for each customer.”

The establishment is a part of Scania’s strategic focus on Thailand and complements the already announced expansion of Scania’s service network in the country from currently 10 workshops to 18 workshops in 2019.

The total investment of 800 Million Baht is mainly for the assembly and manufacturing facility itself, as well as equipment needed. One of the major investments will be for cab welding and painting equipment, which are not present in the current facility. According to Göransson, this is also an opportunity for Scania to consolidate resources into a regional headquarters with a stronger presence as support functions currently are spread between Malaysia, Hong Kong and Thailand. In addition, product related resources from Sweden will be relocated to Thailand. Göransson estimates that the establishment of the regional headquarters will be made gradually over the next couple of years.

“We want to come closer to our customers, that is the underlying principle for this move. By strengthening our industrial operations locally, we can service our customers better,” he elaborated. In his view, the political situation in Thailand has stabilised and now is a good time to proceed with the plan. Opting for a location near the Bangkok Metropolitan area as opposed to ports was motivated by the intention to be closer to the existing Scania operations and many of the customers which are located in or around Bangkok.

The investment into the new assembly and manufacturing facility and regional headquarters, paired with the expansion of the service network are in expectation of an increased demand for Scania vehicles. “We already see a good trend in the demand for Scania vehicles in Thailand and the demand for quality trucks and buses is increasing in general, which helps further. The strengthening of the local presence also shows that we are serious about Thailand, which in itself also might attract customers.”

Shah Alam, 25 Januari 2017 – Dua belas pelajar telah menerima kemahiran untuk memasuki bidang teknologi kejuruteraan automotif baru-baru ini, untuk memenuhi permintaan tenaga manusia dalam negara. Semua pelajar tersebut melalui latihan selama setahun dengan Scania dan akan menyertai rangkaian servis Scania di seluruh negara.

Scania Apprenticeship Program membawa tenaga-tenaga baru ke dalam syarikat tersebut, yang membolehkan Scania untuk mengekalkan tenaga kerja yang serba boleh dan berpengalaman untuk kebaikan pelanggannya, di samping memberi pelajar-pelajar tersebut peluang untuk memulakan kerjaya mereka dan mendapat pengalaman lebih lanjut dalam salah sebuah syarikat pembuat bas, trak dan enjin terbesar di dunia.

Program itu bermula di Institut Kemahiran Belia Negara (IKBN) Kuala Perlis pada tahun 2014 dengan suatu kerjasama untuk membangunkan kemahiran dan silibus, latihan keindustrian, program perantisan dan peluang kerjaya untuk graduan mereka di Scania.

Program ini terbuka untuk mana-mana institute latihan atau individu atau graduan baru dengan pengalaman selama 2 tahun dengan pelajaran dan peringkat persijilan dalam pelajaran Automotif Komersial dengan CGPA minimum 3.0 dan ke atas, serta dapat membaca, menulis dan bercakap Bahasa Inggeris.

“Inisiatif ini untuk membangungkan kemahiran juruteknik untuk sektor kenderaan perdagangan Malaysia yang semakin membesar bukan hanya memenuhi keperluan negara tetapi juga pelanggan Scania kerana kita dapat membekalkan mereka dengan pengalaman pemilikan yang terbaik serta keuntungan dalam pelaburan mereka,” kata Pengarah Urusan Asia Tenggara Scania, Marie Sjödin Enström.

Marie, yang menganugerahkan sijil kepada graduan-graduan, turut berkata bahawa program itu akan membekalkan peluang lebih besar untuk menambah kemahiran, pengetahuan, serta profesionalisme di kalangan pelajar bidang teknikal serta juga kepada orang awam, swasta, dan institusi kajian untuk berkerjasama dalam peringkat yang berbagai.

Ketika majlis tersebut, Scania juga turut mengalukan graduan 2017 mereka untuk melalui latihan selama 3 bulan di ibu pejabatnya, dan daripada itu, mereka yang layak akan terus melalui proses latihan kerjaya tersebut di cawangan Scania terpilih untuk 9 bulan berikutnya.

Scania now completes its new truck generation. Following the introduction of trucks for long-haulage and construction, the focus is now on urban and additional low-carbon transport solutions.

“With today’s release, Scania comprehensively sets the stage for the necessary shift towards sustainable transport, offering tailored low-carbon trucks for all transport applications,” says Christian Levin, Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing.

The new fuel-efficient future-oriented trucks all feature the widely acclaimed styling and product characteristics of the new truck generation. Among these are enhanced driveability as well as improved visibility, increased safety, ergonomics and comfort. With the new generation trucks, Scania is taking major steps in providing customer-adapted trucks for even better total operating economy.

Scania extends its urban range
With the introduction of the lighter trucks powered by the new 7-litre engine, Scania offers urban transporters a new level of transport efficiency with fuel savings of up to 10 percent. With its more compact dimensions, the new P-series cab can feature a lower engine tunnel, which opens up a more spacious cab interior. Drivers will enjoy the best driving conditions in the industry in vehicles that excel in handling, steering and driveability – all of which are essential in challenging urban traffic.

Low entry for higher efficiency
The L-series is Scania’s newly developed cab series for urban transport, such as distribution, refuse collection and maintenance. Drivers will benefit from vastly improved direct vision of the surroundings. Drivers will also be at the same height as other road users, with the added advantage of improved working conditions when repeatedly entering and exiting the cab. The Scania L-series features a kneeling mode and lower boarding steps on both sides of the cab. Drivers can also take advantage of the space in front of the engine tunnel to exit on the passenger side, thereby avoiding oncoming traffic.

Keeping an eye on safety
In addition to the better view over surrounding traffic, Scania introduces the City Safe Window. Drivers will thereby have better opportunities to detect nearby pedestrians and cyclists. The window on the passenger side door is available for all P- and L-series cabs, those most common in urban transport, as well as for the CrewCab.

Scania CrewCab – protecting those that protect
Since Scania’s new CrewCab will mainly be used by firefighters, it has been specifically tailored for emergency assignments, keeping both ergonomics and safety in mind. For extra safety, there is an option for up to four roll over side-curtain airbags. The CrewCab accommodates up to eight passengers with a high level of safety and comfort, which includes a separate climate system with its own heating for the crew area.

Breakthrough for gas-fuelled long-haulage operations
Scania already offers the broadest range of trucks for renewable fuels, including ethanol, biodiesel, HVO as well as hybrid technology. With Scania’s introduction of a six-cylinder 13-litre gas engine specifically designed for regional and long-haulage operations, climate-conscious hauliers now have a strong alternative to conventional fossil fuels. For a 40-tonne truck-and-trailer combination with tanks for liquefied gas, the range has been extended to 1,100 kilometres. In parallel, Scania also releases a 9-litre gas engine for the new truck generation.

Increased uptime with flexible plans
Scania Maintenance with Flexible Plans is now also made available for the gas engine range. Significantly greater maintenance precision can be achieved on the basis of the vehicle’s actual usage pattern as continuously monitored through connectivity. The solution ensures that every single truck gets exactly the right maintenance at exactly the right time, thereby reducing time in the workshop and increasing uptime.

“With the new generation trucks, Scania is taking major steps in improved safety, driver comfort and fuel economy. The released models have been universally praised and awarded for their innovative features and overall performance and we are certain that the new urban range will be equally successful,” says Levin.

According to Shell Lubricants General Manager for Malaysia and Singapore, Baljit Singh, it was about understanding the customers’ requirements in today’s business context, and then working with them as strategic partners to meet the changing industry needs.

“We have global presence and resources, plus a history in Malaysia that spans more than 125 years. We offer much more than just leading class lubricant products for their equipment – we know the market here and understand our Malaysian customers. Our technology leadership, technical expertise and rich experience has allowed us to effectively apply learnings drawn from all over the world to offer a more consultative approach for our customers,” he said.

Many companies across different industry sectors already apply TCO evaluations, knowing that reducing TCO over the lifetime of any machinery is key to extracting the best possible value from the investment.  Yet the impact of lubrication on TCO is too often underestimated.

An international study commissioned by Shell Lubricants discovered that many companies were missing an opportunity for significant cost savings due to a lack of understanding about how effective lubrication can help lower costs and improve equipment reliability.

The study found that in the construction sector, 67% of companies do not believe that selecting a higher quality lubricant can help to reduce unplanned downtime, and 54% do not expect it to help cut maintenance costs. 

In the mining sector, the study found that 96% of mining companies reported experiencing unplanned equipment shutdowns in the last three years, with over half (56%) acknowledging that this was due to their incorrect selection or management of lubricants. This had a direct financial impact, at a time when cost competitiveness is a priority for mining companies.
