Work with technical partner as part of same group simplifies things, says firm
routeone Awards Headline Partner Siemens Financial Services was at the show promoting its offering to the coach and bus industry.
Bus and Coach Finance Manager Martyn Bellis, says: “We have been speaking to a mix of brokers and operators. From the small independent operator to large companies.
“We’re also looking closely at electric – particularly in the bus market. It ties in with how we work with our partners Siemens Engineering.
“It includes not just the buses themselves, but also the infrastructure that is put in place.”
Mr Bellis says the last few years of new legislation and new requirements have been tough.
“This drive towards electric buses is a little bit more involved, and maybe complicated on a technology level,” he says. “So as a financial service business, working with the technical partner that’s part of the same group, we can take away some of that.”
