ACC Heavy Duty is rolling out a new engineering-driven program aimed at helping commercial fleets eliminate chronic component failures—without adding cost to their maintenance budgets.
The company’s new ACC Fleet Solutions initiative provides fleets with custom-engineered replacement parts designed to outperform original equipment, targeting components that repeatedly fail as trucks age and service life extends.
The program is built around a simple model: fleets identify the parts causing persistent downtime, and ACC’s engineering team develops upgraded replacements using the company’s global design, testing, and manufacturing infrastructure. The approach is already proving effective, with pilot projects addressing long-standing issues such as chronic fuel pump failures and premature turn signal switch breakdowns.
Scott Robertson, Vice President of Sales for Multi Parts Solutions, said the program arrives at a critical time for the industry.
“As we head into year four of a freight recession, fleets face unprecedented pressure on their bottom lines,” explained Robertson. “Vehicles are staying in service longer, which creates new failure patterns that OEM engineers—focused on future platforms—aren’t addressing. ACC Fleet Solutions enables fleets to eliminate persistently failing components and replace them with dependable, engineered solutions.”
ACC Heavy Duty’s engineering capabilities expanded significantly following its 2023 acquisition by Multi Parts Solutions, which employs more than 110 professionals across three continents and maintains a $12 million investment in engineering and testing equipment. Most custom-engineered components developed through the program are ready for fleet testing within six to 12 months.
To lead the new initiative, ACC has hired Brett Delp as Commercial Fleet Sales Manager. Delp brings more than 15 years of industry experience, including roles in diesel maintenance, product management, and national fleet sales.
“I grew up in this industry, starting as a technician wrenching on trucks and wondering why engineers designed things the way they did,” commented Delp. “Now I get to apply that perspective, working alongside engineers who can actually build better solutions. When a fleet maintenance manager is dealing with the same failure over and over, we can fix that problem permanently.”
ACC Heavy Duty will showcase the Fleet Solutions program at Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week (HDAW) in Grapevine, Texas, January 19–22, 2026.
