Honest Inspections. Reliable Fleets!
Who We Are and What We Do
mergTech LLC is a U.S. military veteran-owned company dedicated to providing unbiased, third-party inspections of commercial vehicles. mergTech brings the discipline, integrity, service above self, and attention to detail into every inspection. With over 30 years of family experience owning, operating, and maintaining buses, dump trucks, and tractor-trailers, mergTech understands firsthand the challenges fleet operators face in keeping vehicles safe, compliant, and reliable.
Why should you have mergTech perform third-party inspections?
Having your commercial vehicles inspected by a truly independent third party ensures you receive an unbiased, accurate assessment of their condition without the pressure of upselling or unnecessary repairs. There is no financial incentive to exaggerate issues. mergTech will not make any referrals or recommendations about who should repair any defects discovered during our inspection. This objectivity builds trust, protects your bottom line, and gives you confidence that any repair recommendations are genuinely in your best interest.
The inspection report
The inspection report includes descriptions and photos of all defects. You get full visibility and control over your fleet’s health, which allows you to track defects as they’re reported and ensure maintenance is scheduled before small problems turn into costly downtime.
What is inspected?
While commercial drivers are responsible for daily pre-trip inspections, there are many critical components underneath the hood and underneath the vehicle that they cannot be expected to evaluate without specialized training and experience to identify issues early. Here is a list of items typically inspected
What is not inspected?
Unless requested by the client, the inspections typically do not cover items that drivers should be able to reasonably inspect. Items typically not inspected by mergTech include items on a commercial driver’s pre-trip checklist, such as lights, reflectors, safety equipment (e.g., fire extinguishers and triangles), interior items (e.g., mirrors, seating, seatbelts), and body components (e.g., doors, windows, hatches).
Additional things to consider
- All inspections are performed in-place on your premises–inspectors typically do not drive the vehicles for any reason.
- You provide safe access to the vehicle(s).
- mergTech inspects vehicles that are free of significant soil and other obstructions that will prevent thorough visual inspection.
- Inspections are visual and observational only; the inspector does not dismantle, repair, diagnose, or test components beyond basic operation.
- A paved or concrete surface is required to allow the technician to easily and safely roll underneath the entire unit for thorough inspection
- Inspection prices depend on the specific units, volume, and frequency of inspection. Travel to and from the inspection location is priced separately, according to distance.
