Owning Costs
Proven Best Investment
Customer Support Agreements
A Customer Support Agreement (CSA) is an arrangement
between you and your Cat dealer that helps you lower your
total cost per ton. CSAs are flexible, allowing them to
be tailored to your business needs. They can range from
simple Preventive Maintenance Kits to elaborate Total
Cost Performance Guarantees. Having a CSA with your
Cat dealer enables more time for you to do what you
do best – run your business.
