The Cat 3600 ADVANTAGE is a point-of-sale programme designed to give customers the ability to match purchase offers to specific customer needs such as increased productivity, reduced cost and lower risk.

Based on research with equipment customers from around the world, Caterpillar was able to identify the most preferred types of services, which include: Equipment Management Services, Preventive Maintenance Parts and Services, Extended Warranties, and Financial Offers. Based on this direction from its customers, Caterpillar worked with a global team to define a wide range of services dealers could select from to create offers that were best-suited to the customers in each region. Specific offers that align with dealer services would also be a part of the Cat 3600 ADVANTAGE.

What does it mean?
The name 3600 ADVANTAGE was built from what customers have told Caterpillar. The customers are looking for new ways to add value to their business. They want partners who can help them look at every angle?a 360o point of view-so that every improvement will come full circle to the bottom line. That?s what 3600 stands for. The ADVANTAGE is a reminder that its services help customers improve their business in terms of productivity and profit.

Why launched now?
When economic conditions are uncertain, equipment owners get the most value from products, technology and services that are reliable, easy to understand and are backed by a 100 per cent commitment. Because technology-enabled equipment and services are providing access to more actionable information than ever before, they are the ideal source for identifying and validating customers? needs. Technology also gives Caterpillar the ability to measure results and track business improvements. With the continued introduction of highly efficient equipment and the deep expertise of the Cat dealer network, Caterpillar and Cat dealers are uniquely positioned to provide customers around the world with more value and the confidence to keep it growing. The Cat 3600 ADVANTAGE will deliver that value.
