    Montgomery, IL — Pike Systems provides full-service janitorial supplies and service for school districts, hospitals, and health departments. As Ed Bernal of Pike Systems says: “My customers can’t afford downtime. If their batteries aren’t reliable, or if they have to wait for new batteries, they’re not getting their job done [...] With Crown, we can turn around batteries really quickly and get their machine up and running within two to three days. That's huge.” With this in mind, Ed breaks down how Crown Battery helps him achieve some of his biggest goals.

    One of the biggest challenges facing material handlers today is developing strong supplier relationship management (SRM) strategies. Crown Battery is uniquely positioned to speak on the subject of SRM because of our role as a supplier and one that has been in business since 1926.

    You most likely operate your vehicle, workplace equipment or renewable energy systems with batteries that are rechargeable.
