POWER PROTECTION PLANS (PPP)
Your Caterpillar® Engine is a major investment, one that requires your careful attention to continue growing and producing a favorable return. Now owners of Caterpillar Engines in commercial applications can utilize the Caterpillar Power Protection Plan (PPP) to guarantee and control maintenance, inspection, overhaul and unexpected or emergency repair costs. A Power Protection Plan is a comprehensive total maintenance and repair agreement with Caterpillar covering new Caterpillar Engines and approved attachments in commercial applications in North America (including Alaska and Hawaii). Factory-backed and administered by Caterpillar, a PPP contractually guarantees maintenance and repair costs, as will as optimum performance over an extended period.

PPP availability:

Caterpillar EPG, Petroleum and Industrial Diesel/Natural Gas Engines and Attachments
Caterpillar EPG and Industrial Biogas Engines and Attachments
Caterpillar Marine Engines/Diesel and Heavy Fuel Engines and Attachments

Expert maintenance and repairs

When your engine is covered by a Caterpillar PPP, you can rest assured that all recommended scheduled preventive maintenance and repairs will be completed by factory-trained, authorized Caterpillar dealer technicians. This includes scheduled component inspections and overhauls, top-end, in-fame and major overhauls, and emergency repair services.

Up to ten years of coverage

A Caterpillar PPP helps you control operating costs, increase availability and maintain optimum performance for your Caterpillar Engines and package generator sets. PPP agreements can be developed to guarantee maintenance and repair costs for up to ten year periods of operation.

10 good reasons to choose a PPP:

1) All recommended maintenance & overhauls are performed by factory-trained CAT dealer technicians
2) 24-hour emergency repair service
3) Use of only genuine Caterpillar parts
4) No-hassle protection
5) No component exclusions, limitations or deductibles
6) Protection against rising costs for labor, parts and consumables
7) Optimum engine and generator performance
8) No need for costly parts inventories and special tool purchases
9) A Caterpillar Factory Account Manager
10) Guaranteed fixed costs

Labor and travel expenses are covered

In addition to covering all parts of your Cat Engine, generator and attachments in the standard agreement, a PPP includes coverage for the labor and travel expenses associated with scheduled maintenance, inspection and repair of major components, as well as unscheduled or emergency repairs. Additional coverages may be added for maximum protection:

Overtime labor and travel premiums
Serviceability expenses
Engine access, removal and reinstallation expenses
Consumables, including Cat oil (add and fill), coolant, coolant conditioner, belts, lubricants and hoses
Top-end, in-frame and major overhauls
Applicable taxes
Inflation

PPP goes beyond extended warranties

A PPP is not a warranty. In fact, it goes beyond the coverage normally found in extended warranties by guaranteeing all costs associated with scheduled maintenance, inspection and repair of major components, in addition to unscheduled or emergency repairs over an extended period of operation. There are no exclusions, limitations or deductibles, and the PPP covers defects in materials and workmanship, as well as the normal wear-out.

Improve budgeting with guaranteed fixed rates

The Caterpillar PPP is priced to cover costs associated with scheduled preventive maintenance, scheduled component replacement, overhauls, and emergency unscheduled repairs. The actual price you pay, usually invoiced monthly, depends on the length of coverage, your application and engine usage. The applicable rate (measured either as a cost per hour, cost per kilowatt-hour or cost per month) is a guaranteed fixed rate. This rate will not change during the agreement period due to increases in labor charges or parts and consumables prices.

With a PPP, you know all of your maintenance and operational expenses (excluding fuel or expenses due to abuse and neglect), making budgets and cost projections more accurate and reliable.

Solutions for every commercial application

The need to manage costs is universal for all Cat Engine owners. That's why a Power Protection Plan is the right solution for Cat Engines in all types of commercial application. A PPP saves you time, helps you budget more efficiently and accurately, manages risk, and controls unexpected costs.
